"Where's the bride?"
As two husbands-to-be, the question we were asked at our very first wedding fayre really stumped us. The wedding industry still doesn't adequately cater for LGBTQ+ couples planning their special day, and we wanted to try and change that by launching a fully inclusive wedding planning podcast.
Alex & Oliver discuss how to tear up tradition in the first episode of the series, the traditions that were a definite no, but also the ones that they want to modernise for their upcoming non-traditional wedding.
Which wedding traditions would you change for your special day?
