Episode 11: "Everything You Don't See: Inside the Mind of a Wedding Planner"

from Weddings Unfiltered · host Ron Griffin, Molly Winkowski, Heather Thurman

Everyone sees the flowers, the dress, the first dance. Nobody sees the 11pm venue walkthrough, the vendor who cancels two weeks out, or the moment the timeline falls apart and someone has to quietly fix it before the couple ever notices.That someone is the wedding planner.In this episode, we're sitting down with Katie from Under the Willow to pull back the curtain on what wedding planning actually looks like from the other side of the table. From the first consultation to the final dance, Katie walks us through what couples get right, what they get completely wrong, and the moments that don't make it into the highlight reel.We're getting into the real conversations — budget reality checks, family dynamics, the vendors you should splurge on and the ones you can skip, and what Katie wishes every couple knew before they started planning.If you're engaged, thinking about getting engaged, or just curious what it actually takes to pull off a wedding — this one's for you.Guest Information:https://underthewillow.net/https://www.facebook.com/UnderTheWillowEventshttps://www.instagram.com/under_the_willow_events/Host Information:Ron from Buffalo POD - https://www.facebook.com/BuffaloPODhttps://www.instagram.com/buffalopod716/https://www.buffalopod.comMolly from The Planning Touch - https://www.instagram.com/theplanningtouch/https://www.facebook.com/theplanningtouchhttps://www.theplanningtouch.com/Heather from Upstate Indie Weddings -https://www.instagram.com/upstateindieweddings/https://www.facebook.com/upstateindieweddingshttps://www.upstateindieweddings.com#buffalowedding #weddingplanner #podcast
