We're calling this one 'Think Wedding NEW Business', because today's guest has brought a whole new concept to the wedding industry, wedding day 'content creation'.

They've taken the UK by storm this year and Mrs. Bunn was the first. After amassing a huge following on TikTok last year, she utilised that audience to create a thriving business, turning over 70+ weddings in less than 12 months.

We discuss her fascinating journey, as well as getting some tips on how we can all catch up with TikTok and how she deals with resistance (in some cases, real bitterness) towards content creators.

Jonny Draper is not just an epic photographer, but an 'extension of the wedding party' on a wedding day. Going above and beyond for both his clients & fellow wedding suppliers, Jonny has built a strong business and name for himself by being the good guy.

His clients treat him like their best mate (he regularly gets presents from happy couples) and wedding venues/suppliers recommend him year in, year out. In terms of building strong relationships, there's no one who does it quite like Jonny.

His mantra "don't be a d%*k" sounds like a simple one, but in reality it's a considered approach that he implements consistently & it gets results. Make sure you listen to this one carefully, there's a lot to take away.
