After you've booked your venue, planner, and photographer, what are you to do? It can be months before you have to lock in another vendor so let's help you out and tell you what to do next. We brought back Courtney Jackson, the wedding planner behind The Charming Details (and Ashleigh's planner), to tell us what to do next. We're discussing when to start DIY projects, when to book your other vendors, the timing of getting your invitations, when to build your wedding website and registry, and so much more. Share this with a homegirl that needs this info.

This conversation we had with our fave wedding content creator Jasz, a September 2023 bride, was about a topic that is rarely discussed in the wedding world--how difficult wedding planning can be emotionally. When friends and family have baseless opinions or can't relate to the many tasks that encompass wedding planning, it makes it hard. Enjoy this convo and we'll be back with a new episode next week.

Happy belated Valentine's day! We always wanted to have a conversation with someone that fell in love and got married after 50. We were so grateful to have this chat with Gina Brown, co-founder of myBKlife, about dating as a single parent, courtship with her now husband, and the journey to her happily ever after. Enjoy!

In the second and final part of our wedding content creator series, we're chatting with two creators−Lanise Harris and photographer Chrissandra Jallah−about their experiences. For brides, this is a great episode that'll give you context to why you need a content creator, how to set yours up for success, etc. But vendors, listen up as well because you'll learn how to work with these talented individuals that want to be respected as vendors, just like you.

We're starting a new series that you'll see from time to time on Hue I Do called "Hot Takes". Along with our special guest (this week is Wimberly & Co. wedding planner Cara Davis Little), we're going to discuss these wedding and marriage-related hot takes that we see frequently and we're going to tell you how we really feel. Like... proposing at her graduation dinner? Proposing at someone else's wedding? Do you need to get the bride a gift off her registry if you're in the wedding party? Leaving trash vendors bad reviews? Yea, we're talking about all of this and more.
