On Episode 046: “When Things Go WRONG” you guys wanted to know what to do when things (inevitably) go off-script on wedding day. Whether you’ve been to another wedding and seen everything you do NOT want to happen on your big day or you’re worried about the weather or other people messing things up, I’m here to answer your questions and help you to have a plan A, B and C through Z ready to roll! Remember, something will always go wrong - big or small, but the most important thing is to be prepared for it and to have a good team in place to put those fires out and pivot!

On Episode 044: “Avoiding Viral Wedding Photography Mistakes” I was joined by my lovely and talented friend who happens to be a fantastic wedding photographer - Kimberly Cauble, owner of Kimberly Cauble Photography - and we addressed some questions from couples about some seriously sketchy things being talked about all over the internet - wedding photographers ghosting their clients on wedding day, delivering photos that don’t match their editing style, or taking the money and running. How in the world are you supposed to know and who do you trust when hiring a wedding photographer?! Well, I’m glad you asked because we addressed all of this on this week’s episode of the show. Tune in to make sure you’re not the next viral story going around the internet when it comes to making some serious wedding photography mistakes!

On Episode 042: “Communication & Boundaries” this week, I answered some tricky questions from couples about how to handle some awkward conversations with loved ones, co-workers and vendors. Communication is KEY when it comes to relationships in general, but when emotions and budgets are high during the wedding planning process - it’s even more crucial to say what you mean, know how to say it, and stick to your guns. And that’s exactly what this episode is about!

This week on Episode 040: “How to get the Most Out of Bridal Shows” I am replaying my conversation with the wedding show man himself, Marc Wheeler - producer of Wedding Festivals. Marc came on the show in season 1 to help answer all your questions about bridal shows - how to prepare for them, how to make the most of your time at a show, and what to do when you get home with 100+ business cards. It was so full of great advice that I just had to air this episode again since bridal show season is in full swing. You definitely want to tune in before heading to a show!

On Episode 038: “Ask Taylor Anything!” I took a little different approach and did this episode solo to answer some of the questions you guys tend to ask about me - How did I get into wedding planning? What are some of the best things I’ve seen couples do at their wedding? What are the best and worst parts about my job? How can you get into wedding planning? I truly want you guys to know I’m an open book and that you can trust me and the resources I bring to you each week so this episode aims to do just that - give you a little more access to me and hopefully leave you feeling like you can trust me and The Dazed & Engaged Wedding Planning Advice Podcast to answer all of your questions!
