So many expectations are put on you the second you get engaged and the second you get married. WHEW. We talked with content creator Shameika L.H. Smith about the stress and anxiety of it all. We discuss the expectations that come with marriage, including societal pressures, family opinions, and personal choices. And not just that, but the challenges and dynamics of marriage and how it affects our friendships and personal growth. Definitely a great listen for anyone in this stage of their life.

The entire wedding day thrives off the creation of a successful wedding timeline. Competent wedding planners and coordinators will create the most detailed timeline and adjust it tens of times before the actual day.

who should receive the timeline
what every timeline should include
the ceremony and reception events that take up the most time
common misconceptions within wedding timelines
the impact of vendor contracts in our timelines
the timing of the final timeline
We hope you enjoy the episode!
