How to change the conversation

Stress-free wedding planningStress-free wedding planning: Problem Pal

Everyone asks the same questions about my wedding – and I’m sick of talking about it!

I’ve been planning my wedding for six months and I’m already SICK of talking about it!

I feel like my wedding is dominating every single conversation I have.

Everyone I talk to, from my friends to my co-workers, asks about my wedding. And it’s always the same things! It’s like being in Groundhog Day, having the same conversations over and over!

I appreciate that my friends are just interested in what really is a big part of my life just now, but I’ve hit a point where I’m boring myself.

I don’t feel like I’m getting a chance to actually catch up with anyone, I’m just talking on auto-pilot about the same things, rather than having real conversations with my friends.

I feel like I’m two more questions about my dress away from screaming! Or eloping!!

How can I tell people I don’t want to talk about my wedding without being rude?

Wedding suppliers aren't just people you hire to t Wedding suppliers aren't just people you hire to take photos or make stationery.⁠
⁠
They're the people who make your wedding happen. ⁠
⁠
So it's important to find people you click with, who get your sense of humour, share your values, and match your style.⁠ People you'd invite to your wedding if they weren't working it!⁠
⁠
If you're eco-conscious, hiring a cake maker who doesn't know what sustainability means probably won't end with you having the low carbon footprint wedding you'd expected.⁠
⁠
If you're having an alternative festival wedding with fun fair games and food trucks, hiring a traditional planner with a portfolio of church weddings probably won't be best placed to organise the day you’re picturing.⁠
⁠
It's important that you find people on your wavelength to help with your wedding.⁠
⁠
Check out our list of the 37 BEST wedding suppliers in London to find people who'll GET you - and make your wedding rock!⁠

Getting married shouldn't feel like a chore, but w Getting married shouldn't feel like a chore, but when you need to chase for RSVPs — again — or count and re-count and aah-I-lost-track re-count who needs a vegan option, it can seem more like a job than a joy.⁠

But it can be hard to find a reading that fits your day and your relationship. You don't want a poem that feels like a homework assignment, and you don't want a modern reading that you've heard at five other weddings.⁠

Getting people to RSVP on time is HARD.⁠ ⁠ And Getting people to RSVP on time is HARD.⁠
⁠
And some of the worst offenders are parents, siblings, and people in the wedding party, who assume they don't have to RSVP because you already know they're coming - forgetting about meal choices, plus one details, allergy information... And how much harder it is for you, not having all of the details in once place!⁠

This March, we're supporting @codingblackfemales who educate, support, and provide opportunities for Black women and non-binary people in tech.⁠
⁠
Women are still sorely underrepresented in the tech industry (as a female programmer myself, I can tell you I'm far more of an anomoly than I'd like to be!) and Black women are underrepresented in that underrepresentation!⁠
⁠
Coding Black Females is doing brilliant work to correct that. They're an amazing organisation, well worth your support. Check them out!

We're beavering away behind the scenes on a NEW design for our house collection at the moment.⁠
⁠
It's...⁠
⁠
✔️ called Taylor. (Three guesses who we named it after!)⁠
⁠
✔️ blush with navy blue. (Though, like all our designs, it can be recoloured to fit your wedding.)⁠
⁠
✔️ got some handwritten text, to bring a little personality to an elegant, clean design. (I'm in LOVE with the 'ish' timing on this order of service!)⁠
⁠
✔️ elegant and beautiful - but it doesn't fit neatly within the lines...!⁠

✔️ got something NONE of our other designs have!⁠

It's awkward getting your RSVPs back on time. You It's awkward getting your RSVPs back on time. You don't want to chase up every guest - and frankly you've got better things to do, like binge Bridgerton (again) - but it's important to get your final headcount across to your venue, your caterer, and your stationer.⁠
⁠
If you handle your RSVPs on a wedding website, it can automatically send out email and SMS reminders - just to the people who need them - when it starts getting close to your deadline.⁠
⁠
An automatic reminder to RSVP isn't embarrassing the way being pulled up by the couple is - and it encourages quicker answers, since your guests can RSVP then and there on their phone, as soon as they read the message.⁠
