Venue or guest list—which one comes first? I get this question all the time, and my answer is clear: make the guest list first.

In this episode, I walk you through why starting here gives you more clarity, less stress, and way fewer regrets down the road. We’ll talk about how to actually make that list (even when family dynamics are messy), why it’s the real roadmap for your planning, and how it helps you find a venue that actually works. It’s not easy—but it’s worth it.

✨ Let’s stay connected
