Sara and Katie are wedding professionals in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia wedding and event markets. With the rise of social media and the industry continuing to grow, various agendas, narratives, education, and everything else in between have communicated unrealistic expectations of how weddings should look, feel, and cost to those getting married. Sara and Katie's goal with this podcast is to call out the "ick" that has been circulating and to encourage their fellow wedding vendors to remember why the industry exists in the first place.
There's something about seeing another human spotlit in some capacity that looks like you, thinks like you, talks like you, and overall just seems similar to you. Engaged couples are no different when they scroll through Instagram's Explore page, swipe up on their For You Page, and pin on their wedding Pinterest boards. They are looking for wedding aesthetics, budgets, and people, that they can relate to in order for them to build their own wedding dreams. However it seems that the mainstream does not want to highlight everyone; the publications and the feeds tend to have a pattern of aesthetics, budget, etc. It's a big ick and one that we talk about in this episode because regardless of how much they spent, where they are getting married, and what their overall wedding is, every wedding is shareable.

030 - Oversharing vs. Authenticity
As wedding vendors, we all feel the pressure and, for some of us, the want to be relatable and authentic to our couples. However that seeking relatability and perception of being authentic can quickly turn into over sharing. Where’s the line? What’s too much? Is there such thing as too little? We’re diving deep into where the boundary should and shouldn’t be.

029 - Idolizing "untouchables"
They’re the people you look up to when you first break into the industry. You buy their courses, attend conferences when they’re keynote speakers, and register for the retreats they host. You like all their posts, comment and DM them. You join their facebook groups and ask for advice. Overtime, you find yourself idolizing them; wanting to become just like them; take all the business advice from them. But when do you take it too far? What’s the boundary? We’re talking about idolizing the “untouchables”; The celebrity like people who were once in your shoes.
