  • 89. Hiring the Right People: Building a Team That Helps Your Business Grow with Dave Dubin | People Strategies

    In this episode of Bridal Club™, Andrea Cole sits down with Dave Dubin, PhD, industrial and organizational psychologist and Principal of People Strategies, for a conversation about one of the most challenging parts of growing a business: hiring the right people.

    For many creative entrepreneurs, building a business starts with doing almost everything yourself. But as the business grows, so does the need for a team. Andrea shares her own experiences with hiring, from the cost of getting it wrong to why she now uses assessments as part of her hiring process.

    Dave brings the science of workplace psychology into the conversation, explaining how understanding a person’s natural strengths, personality, abilities, and work behaviors can help business owners make more informed hiring decisions. He also shares why a great interview or impressive résumé doesn’t always tell you whether someone will actually succeed in a specific role.

    But hiring is only part of the conversation. Andrea and Dave also explore what happens after someone joins your team, including how to recognize when a good employee may simply be in the wrong role, how to hire for high-pressure environments like the wedding industry, and how understanding your employees can help you manage and develop them more effectively.

    Together, they discuss:

    • Why hiring the right people is essential to scaling your business
    • Why a great résumé and interview don’t always predict success
    • How assessments can help you make more informed hiring decisions
    • Why the right person in the wrong role can look like a bad hire
    • How to identify people who can perform under pressure, especially in the wedding industry


    Whether you’re preparing to make your first hire, growing an established wedding business, or leading a team you already have, this episode is a reminder that building the right team isn’t about finding people exactly like you. It’s about understanding what your business needs, what makes people successful, and finding the right person for the right role.

    Because if you want to scale, you need people. And learning how to hire, develop, and lead those people well can change the way you grow your business.

  • 88. The Problem Is You: Why Personal Growth Is the Key to Business Growth | Andrea Cole

    What if the biggest thing holding your business back isn’t your marketing, your team, or your clients? What if it’s you?

    In this solo episode of Bridal Club™, host and DBANDREA® founder Andrea Cole shares what 10 years in business have taught her about the personal growth required to lead a growing company.

    The skill set that gets your business off the ground isn’t always the same skill set you need to scale it. As your company grows, you’re suddenly navigating employees, difficult clients, bigger decisions, unexpected challenges, and the emotional responsibility that comes with knowing it’s your business.

    Andrea gets candid about the moments that have challenged her as a business owner, including reacting emotionally when things go wrong and learning not to take every problem personally. She also shares the daily habits that have changed the way she shows up at work, from exercise and meditation to creating healthier boundaries with social media and building non-negotiables into her routine.

    In this episode, you’ll hear:

    • Why the skills required to start a business are different from those required to scale one
    • What Andrea means when she says, “The problem is you”
    • Why managing your emotions and reactions is essential to becoming a stronger business owner
    • How your personal habits impact the way you show up in your business
    • The daily non-negotiables Andrea uses to manage stress, stay focused, and be more present
    • What 10 years in business have taught Andrea about personal growth and leadership

    Whether you’re a wedding professional, creative entrepreneur, or business owner navigating your next stage of growth, this episode is a reminder that growing your business also requires growing yourself.

    Because sometimes the next level of your business isn’t about another strategy, another client, or working more hours. It starts with learning how to manage yourself, your mindset, and the way you respond when things don’t go as planned.

  • 87. What Every Bride Should Know Before Getting a Spray Tan | Avalon Sunless Beauty

    When should you get a spray tan before your wedding? How do you avoid looking orange? And how do you get a natural, flawless glow without worrying about your spray tan transferring onto your wedding dress?

    In this episode of Bridal Club™, Andrea Cole sits down with Aletha Hahn, Founder of Avalon Sunless Beauty, the Official Spray Tan Sponsor of Miss America, to talk about everything brides need to know before getting a spray tan for their wedding.

    Aletha's journey into the beauty industry wasn't exactly planned. After spending years in the grocery industry, she learned how to spray tan in 2017 and quickly fell in love with it. What started unexpectedly grew into a thriving business with multiple locations, professional spray tan training, and an official partnership with Miss America.

    Now, she's sharing the advice she gives her own brides and clients, including the expertise she brings to the Miss America stage, to help women achieve a natural, even glow and feel confident for some of life's biggest moments.

    Together, they discuss:

    • When brides should schedule their wedding spray tan
    • How to prep your skin for the best results
    • Beauty appointments to complete before your spray tan
    • How to avoid uneven color, transfer, and other common mistakes
    • Clear vs. rapid spray tan solutions and what brides should know
    • How Aletha creates customized tans for Miss America contestants
    • Why the perfect spray tan should enhance your natural beauty and confidence


    Whether you're a bride preparing for your wedding day, a beauty professional looking to elevate your client experience, or someone who simply wants to understand how to get a more natural, flawless spray tan, this conversation is packed with practical advice you can use before your next appointment.

    Because at the end of the day, the perfect glow isn't just about how you look. It's about walking into the room feeling confident, beautiful, and completely yourself.

  • 86. More Than a Wedding Venue: Creating the Ultimate Wedding Weekend at The Adolphus

    In this episode of Bridal Club™, Andrea Cole sits down with Blaine Eads, Director of Catering at The Adolphus, to talk about luxury hospitality, the wedding weekend experience, and what couples should really consider when choosing a venue.

    Blaine shares how she found her way into the wedding industry and eventually landed at The Adolphus, one of Dallas’ most iconic hotels. Founded in 1912, The Adolphus has remained a wedding destination for generations by combining its history and timeless architecture with the level of service modern weddings require.

    Andrea and Blaine also go behind the scenes of an Adolphus wedding weekend, from bridal tea and welcome parties to the reception, after-party, and farewell brunch. They discuss why the guest experience matters just as much as aesthetics, what luxury service really looks like behind the scenes, and the importance of community within the wedding industry.

    Together, they discuss:

    • Blaine’s journey into the wedding industry

    • What has kept The Adolphus relevant for more than 100 years

    • Why couples should look beyond aesthetics when choosing a venue

    • How to create a full wedding weekend experience

    • What luxury hospitality looks like behind the scenes

    • Why the Dallas wedding community is so special

    • Blaine’s advice for building genuine industry relationships

    Whether you work in weddings or you’re a bride searching for the perfect venue, this episode is a reminder that the best wedding experiences aren’t only about how they look. They’re about how people feel from arrival to departure.

  • 85. The 3 Ways to Grow Your Business (And Why New Clients Aren’t Everything) | Andrea Cole

    If your business isn’t growing, it’s dying. But growth doesn’t always mean finding more clients.

    In this solo episode of Bridal Club™, host and DBANDREA® founder Andrea Cole breaks down the three ways to grow a business and why constantly chasing new customers may not be the most profitable path forward.

    Drawing from her own experience building DBANDREA®, Andrea shares how business owners can increase revenue by looking beyond customer acquisition and focusing on the clients who already know, trust, and value what they do.

    She also challenges the idea that selling more is a bad thing. When you genuinely have your client’s best interest in mind, offering the right upgrades, add-ons, and additional services isn’t about pressure. It’s about making sure they understand everything available to them and allowing them to choose what serves them best.

    In this episode, you’ll hear:

    • The three ways to grow a business

    • Why constantly chasing new clients can become expensive

    • How to increase your average purchase value

    • Why selling more doesn’t have to mean pressuring your clients

    • How Andrea approaches upgrades and add-ons at DBANDREA®

    • The upsell opportunity Andrea’s own wedding videographer almost missed

    • How offering three options can help clients make a more informed decision

    • Why your past clients may be one of your greatest marketing opportunities

    • How wedding professionals can increase the lifetime value of a client

    • Why repeat business and referrals can lead to higher profits with less marketing

    Whether you’re a wedding professional, creative entrepreneur, or business owner trying to reach your next stage of growth, this episode will challenge you to look at the opportunities already sitting inside your business.

    Because your former clients can either become one of your greatest assets or one of your biggest missed opportunities.

  • 84. The Power of Hospitality, Community & Belonging with Jordan Fatheree | Rosewood Hotels

    In this episode of Bridal Club™, Andrea Cole sits down with Jordan Feathery, Director of Catering and Events at Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek, for a conversation about hospitality, building meaningful relationships, and what it really means to serve an industry you love.

    Jordan’s career in hospitality began at just 18 years old. From working nearly every corner of hotel operations to consulting with hotels across the country and eventually returning to The Mansion, his career has been built around one thing: taking care of people.

    Now back at Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek, Jordan is helping couples create celebrations that feel both deeply personal and completely their own, while honoring the history and sense of place that have made The Mansion such an iconic Dallas destination.

    Jordan and Andrea also go behind the scenes of the first-ever WIPA Con and talk about something much bigger than networking: belonging. They share why the strongest industry relationships aren’t built by asking what someone can do for you, but by showing up, serving others, and becoming part of a community that supports one another long after an event is over.

    Together, they discuss:

    • Jordan’s journey from an 18-year-old hotel intern to Director of Catering and Events at The Mansion

    • Why genuine hospitality starts with wanting to take care of people

    • The rise of multigenerational weddings and the emotional connection couples have to The Mansion

    • Building the World of Rosewood Weddings experience and bringing Rosewood destinations together

    • Why networking becomes more powerful when you stop making it about yourself

    • What made the first WIPA Con different from other industry conferences

    • Why giving back to the wedding industry can create relationships and impact that last for years

    Whether you work in weddings, hospitality, or are building your own business, Jordan’s story is a reminder that the experiences people remember most often come down to how you made them feel.

    Because great hospitality isn’t just about creating a beautiful event. It’s about taking care of people, building genuine relationships, and creating a sense of belonging that lasts long after the celebration is over.

  • 83. A Decade in Business: Finding Joy in What You’ve Built with Julian Leaver

    In this episode of Bridal Club™, Andrea Cole sits down with Julian Leaver, Founder of Julian Leaver Events, for a candid conversation about a decade in business, evolving as a leader, building the right team, letting go of control, and finding more joy in what he’s built.

    Ten years into Julian Leaver Events, Julian is in a different season. His team has evolved, the business is busier than ever, and he’s continuing to push himself creatively. But people are noticing something: Julian seems genuinely happy.

    That joy comes through as Julian reflects on what this season has taught him about leadership, creativity, and the pressure entrepreneurs put on themselves to constantly do more. He also takes Andrea behind the scenes of the recent WIPA Gala in Dallas, an event he designed as a “love letter to the wedding industry,” celebrating not only the people we see on Instagram, but the countless hands behind the scenes who bring weddings and events to life.

    Together, they discuss:

    • The creative vision behind the WIPA Gala and why Julian designed it as a love letter to the wedding industry

    • What a decade of Julian Leaver Events has taught him about leadership, creativity, and change

    • Why Julian made one of the biggest team shifts in the history of his business

    • What entrepreneurs can learn from Julian about communication, expectations, and leading people well

    • Why Julian believes entrepreneurs need to “celebrate the wins” and “put the bat down”

    • What Julian has learned about letting go of control and accepting that you can’t determine every outcome

    • Why this season feels happier and lighter, even while his business is busier than ever

    • How prayer, faith, and gratitude help keep him grounded through every season

    Whether you’re building a business, leading a team, or simply navigating a new season, Julian’s story is a reminder that growth isn’t always about doing more. Sometimes it’s about trusting what you’ve built, celebrating how far you’ve come, and allowing yourself to find joy along the way.

    This conversation is for anyone who has spent so much time building what’s next that they may have forgotten to appreciate what’s already here.

  • 82. 30 Years in the Wedding Industry: Legacy, Evolution & What’s Next with Todd Fiscus

    What happens when you’ve spent more than 30 years building one of the most recognizable careers in the wedding industry, and you’re ready for what’s next?

    In this episode of Bridal Club™, Andrea Cole sits down with Todd Fiscus, Founder and Creative Director of Todd Events, for a candid conversation about three decades in weddings, building businesses, pushing the industry forward, and why he’s “sunsetting”, not retiring.

    Todd’s career in weddings began almost by accident. In 1996, after the woman in charge of weddings at the hotel where he worked quit, Todd was handed a stack of inquiries and told to start making calls. With an annual sales goal of roughly $400,000, he went on to sell $1.2 million in just nine months.

    That unexpected beginning became a career centered around one philosophy: his job isn’t to make an event look like him, it’s to capture the spirit of the people he’s designing it for.

    Together, they discuss:

    • How Todd unexpectedly found his way into the wedding industry and built a career spanning more than 30 years

    • Why knowing your “golden egg” matters when growing a business

    • What wedding professionals need to understand about building a business that can eventually operate without them

    • Why Todd describes his next chapter as “sunsetting” and moving from doer to founder

    • What couples should really understand about wedding budgets, guest count, flowers, and the true cost of creating an event

    • How storytelling and personal details can create a more meaningful wedding than simply recreating something from Pinterest

    • What Todd learned from designing for clients including Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton

    • Why he challenges the next generation of wedding professionals to do it better than he did

    • What’s next for Todd, including his upcoming coffee-table book, Love Letters, celebrating 30 years of events and memories

    Todd also opens up about legacy, mentorship, and why sharing what he’s learned matters more to him at this stage of his career. As he begins stepping away from the day-to-day execution of events, his focus is shifting toward helping the next generation grow, creating new projects, and preserving the stories behind a career he’s spent decades building.

    Whether you’re planning a wedding, building a career in the wedding industry, or navigating what comes next after years of growing a business, this conversation is a reminder that success isn’t only about what you build—it’s also about what you leave behind.
