Wedding planning often revolves around timelines—when things start, when they move, when they end. Photographers, DJs, caterers, planners, and officiants all rely on schedules to help the day flow smoothly.

But when the wedding is over, couples rarely remember the minutes.

They remember how it felt.

In this reflective episode, Ken Clough explores the tension between planning and presence on a wedding day. Drawing from years of being alongside couples, he reflects on why timelines matter—and why they often fade from memory—while moments of laughter, connection, and quiet pause remain.

This episode invites couples to think beyond the schedule and consider how building space, buffers, and time for themselves can transform how the day is experienced—and remembered. It also explores the role of wedding photography in revealing moments couples didn’t see and helping them relive what mattered most.

A thoughtful listen for couples planning their wedding, creatives in the wedding industry, and anyone who values meaning over minutes.
