The audio isn't perfect, but you'll forget about that when you hear and absorb all the juiciness Aunty Ebs (aka Ebony, from House of Ebony) has to offer!!

We chat all things weddings, vow writing, staying true to yourself and also dive right into how Ebony became a celebrant and what she brings to the table (let me tell ya - it's EVERYTHING!)

Listen out for some special other Perth industry wedding peep shoutouts! From start to finish, this is an episode that will have you tearing up but also laughing too.

This week, on the Dear Romance podcast, you’ll find out my best recommendation for tracking your wedding payments, due dates and deposits - and why I’m such a spreadsheet nerd (in biz and at home!)

Tracking your wedding payments is necessary to make sure you keep on top of your wedding budget and making sure you’re not overspending. It also helps in making sure you don’t get overcharged or incorrectly invoiced either.

I also dive into why vendors take a non-refundable deposit and drop all the best tips on why you should be reading your terms and conditions and why you’re responsible for tracking all your payments - not us as vendors.

Today I’m chatting through the difference between wedding registries and wishing wells - to help you decide which option is best for your wedding day and what it all involves.

I chat through how online registries work these days and hidden costs you should look out for.

I also touch on how there’s an increased expectation that’s come out over the last 12 months or so that wedding guests need to “pay their way” on your wedding day so you can make some of the costs back that you’ve spent for your dream day… and why this is a poor plan if you’re thinking that way.

Controversial? Maybe, but it’s worth a discussion. If you’ve got an opinion or you think I’m wrong, come chat with me over on Instagram in my DMs. You’ll find me over at @_dearromance
