What if you could rewrite the rules for your wedding day? For couples who donât fit the traditional moldâor simply want to ditch outdated customsâcreating a ceremony and an entire celebration that truly reflects their love can feel a little overwhelming.
In this episode, Monty Haron, an Australian celebrant with a very special flavour, joins us to explore the best alternatives to wedding customs without leaning on heteronormative traditions.
Honestly, our conversation was so good and we were having so much fun that I just kept recording! And that's why Iâve had to split his interview into two parts.
In this first part, youâll learn all about Montyâs insights and wild stories from his weddings that defy expectations.
So whether you're LGBT+, non-traditional, or just curious about shaking things up a bit, this conversation will inspire you to make your day uniquely yours.
And next week, in Part 2 Monty shares actionable alternatives to traditional wedding elements like the processional, navigating family expectations, and infusing your unique identity into every single moment.

What if I told you there's a way to make your ceremony as unique and as vibrant and as deep and as weird and quirky as your relationship? Today I'm digging into the world of non-traditional wedding readings.
Forget the same old scripture passages, unless that's your jam, in which case there's nothing to see here. But I want to talk about poems that speak to your soul and make your heart skip a beat. Song lyrics that make you cry, and even quotes from your favourite TV show or movie that make you feel stuff.
Whether you're planning a ceremony that pulls at the heartstrings, is laugh out loud, funny, quirky, cute, or something in between, this episode is your guide to injecting personality and richness into one of the most important moments of your big day.
I'm going to go through:
why non-traditional readings It can be a breath of fresh air for your ceremony,some brilliant examples for unique and meaningful readings, lyrics and quotes,how to choose the perfect words that reflect you as a couple and,choose the perfect time as well so they fit into your ceremony rather than feeling like you're sitting at a uni lecture.By the end of this episode, you'll be bursting with inspiration to create a ceremony that's as one of a kind, as weird, adorable, and unique as you two are.
So grab a notebook, maybe a tissue or two, because we're about to delve into feelings and we're going to get poetic, lyrical, and maybe even a little cinematic

Do you really need more than one outfit for your wedding day?
Is it just another wedding industry or consumer-driven extravagance, or are there more practical reasons and even history and cultural significance behind the perceived increase in multiple outfit changes on a wedding day?
In this episode youâll learn why brides (not excluding others who want to get into the 2nd outfit fun, but mainly brides) are embracing more than one wedding day look, what kinds of 2nd outfits are popular and available to you (hint: they donât have to break the bank) and how to time your change perfectly to make the most of photo opportunities and your party time too.
Make sure you listen right to the end because bridal boutique owner and stylist, Bianca from Sposa Adelaide, shares her insider expert advice about different options you might not have considered and how to pull off your wardrobe transitions like a pro!

Imagine waking up the morning after your wedding, still basking in the glow of the previous night's magic, and receiving a link to a treasure trove of candid photos and videos from your special day. Within 24 to 48 hours, you can relive the laughter, tears, and joy through hundreds of unedited and edited moments captured by a wedding content creator. Sounds great, right?
But here's the real question: âWhen is it a smart move to book a content creator for your big day, and when might you be setting yourself up for disappointment or even undermining the work of your professional photographer and/or videographer?"
Iâve been inspired by the Brad and Karina podcast episode as they shared a few less-than-ideal experiences working with content creators and contrasted that against the times when theyâve worked with collaborative team players.
I thought that it would be super valuable for you, to help you understand how the roles of photographer, videographer and content creator are very different and which one (or ones) you choose to book for your wedding depends on what you want to get out of it, where your priorities lie and your values too.
When should you hire a wedding content creator and might it not be the best choice for you?

Planning a wedding that truly reflects you both can feel overwhelming at times, right? With so many options, it's tough to know where to start, what works and what doesn't.
But what Iâd love to encourage you to do is to forget about fleeting âtrendsâ â because I want to explore some ideas that are genuinely creating magical moments in 2025 weddings. And Iâll also shed light on some outdated approaches that couples are happily leaving behind.
And when I say wedding trends, Iâm not here to dictate the hottest colours or push you towards budget-busting extravagances that don't resonate with you.
Instead, I want to share the thoughtful choices couples are making in 2025 that genuinely enhance their wedding experience. And some of them might not be new, as such, but they are definitely gaining in popularity.
Today, Iâm diving into ideas that are working right now to maximise your precious time, create unforgettable moments, and minimise any post-wedding regret.
From reimagining traditional timelines to incorporating technology that brings far-flung loved ones closer, we'll see how couples are creating little pockets inside their weddings that feel authentically 'them.'
Iâll also look at ways people are reducing stress, amping up their guestsâ experience, and refining the elements of their day (or days) by serving a purpose that means something to them.

What's your relationship with your parents worth to you?
This episode was inspired by a real-future mother of the bride and Unbridely Podcast listener, who reached out to me about her own daughterâs wedding.
The Mum left me a voice message because she was wondering how to broach the topic of offering money to help pay for her daughterâs wedding and how to make sure that it came across to the soon-to-be-weds as helpful, thoughtful, intentional and not controlling, or just throwing cash at them.
She wants her contribution to be valued and meaningful to both her and her daughter.
So today, I share a few insights on how I think itâs best to work through this potential minefield of emotions, power, money and expectations.
How do you accept help from your parents without feeling like you're losing control of your own wedding?
How do you keep your relationship with them intact while still staying true to what you and your fiancé want?
Your going to learn some real, practical strategies for setting boundaries, having those awkward conversations, and making sure your wedding stays YOUR wedding.
Plus I want to share with you how my parents contributed to our wedding and how it made our wedding day and general relationship with them even stronger.

Have you ever walked away after a conversation, or been driving home and thought:
âoh man, I shouldâve stood up for myselfâ or âI should have said what I really feltâ or worse still you couldnât think of anything in the moment but you realise what you shouldâve said afterwards.
It's a scientific fact that once you get engaged (maybe 2nd only to when you get pregnant) youâll be on the receiving end of more uncomfortable dare I say STUPID questions than youâve ever been asked in your entire life. And they can make you feel uncomfortable, they can be of a private nature, or quite simply no oneâs business.
So today Iâm here to help you decide the options available to you.
From the high-road, classy replies that neutralise the conversation so you can change topics OR if youâve got nothing to lose, the sassy, spicy, sarcastic retorts that, for sure, burn bridges, but also let people know that youâre not playing.
And at the end of the episode, Iâll also be sharing some all-rounder replies that work for pretty much anythingâresponses that let you stay cool, calm, collected, and come out of it smelling like roses, no matter whatâs thrown your way.

Are you feeling the pressure to wow your wedding guests with a perfect first dance? What if I told you that stressing over the choreography, for 99.9% of people at least, is totally unnecessary?Today, I'm joined by Joel and Clara from JC Dance Co, Canada to ask them why they believe many couples approach their first dance all wrong â and how you can make yours a memory you'll actually LOVE instead of a performance you dread.
In this episode, youâll learn the biggest misconceptions couples have about their first dance and how to reframe what that moment could be for you, your fiancĂ© and your family and friends.
Joel and Clara will explain why choreographed dance moves add unnecessary stress, and why focusing on feeling confident and connected is far more important than pulling off complicated steps and flashy moves.
Plus, if you feel like you have âtwo left feet,â donât worry! They also share their strategies for those engaged couples who have little to no dance experience.
And finally, weâll dive into their philosophy of teaching dance skills that last well beyond your wedding day â helping you create a foundation for a lifetime of dancing together.
If you BOTH want to step onto your wedding dance floor feeling relaxed AND excited, this episode is a must-listen!

How can you be sure youâre planning a wedding that your family and friends will actually enjoy?
In my job as a celebrant here in Australia this wedding season, Iâve been reminded of some of the basics of wedding planning and how, frequently, it doesnât matter how big or modest your budget is.
These concepts are about making a welcoming and comfortable space for your guests so they want to stay, and in fact, when the lights come on after last drinks have been called:
1) Thereâll still be people there and
2) Thereâll be an audible groan that the celebrations have come to an end.
Today Iâm sharing the top 10 things that wedding guests secretly hate, but wonât complain about (to you, at least).

If you had a dollar for every time your family or friends asked, 'Whatâs the dress code?' or âCan I bring a +1â youâd have enough to pay for the open bar.
But seriously, thereâs a way to cut the volume of those repeat questions pretty much in half.
So before you hit the 'delete guest list' button, consider this: your wedding website is like your very own virtual assistant, and the FAQ page means that theyâre working for you 24/7.
Itâs like the 'Frequently Asked Questions' section on your favourite online store, but instead of shipping rates, despatch times and returns info, itâs âYes, thereâs parkingâ, âno, you canât bring your dogâ, and âyes, thereâll be a gluten-free option for dessertâ âsaving you time, sanity, and about 67 text messages.
And when you use your wedding website to anticipate your guestâs concerns you also minimize the back-and-forth communication with them.
Itâs also important to include clear and comprehensive FAQs to help you hold your boundaries and to communicate any changes and/or exceptions to the decisions that youâve already made.
Iâve pulled together a list of the most common and helpful 16 FAQs to get you started.

What would you do if you didnât receive your wedding photo gallery?
As weeks turn to months after your wedding day and you still havenât gotten your wedding photos, it can start to feel like your memories are being held hostage. And thatâs when the panic can set in.
Did your photographer lose your photos?
Were their SD card/s damaged?
Why are they still posting other coupleâs photos on socials?
You can really start to spiral.
I reached out to 10 of the Unbridely Suppliers pro wedding photographers to get their perspective on:
how long is too long to wait for your wedding photo gallery, why delays sometimes happen and how to handle them, why communication is key, and how to avoid this situation happening to you from the very start.RESOURCES

Imagine this: You find, trust, book in and pay for a vendor for your wedding mainly because theyâve won every wedding award out there, only to find out later (when itâs too late)⊠that they actually paid for those awards, or arenât as experienced or talented as you presumed, or, and this is surely worst, they canât even deliver what you actually need.
Could this ever happen?
So today, Iâm going to teach you a little about some of the biggest wedding industry awards and their processes including WeddingWire, The Knot, Easy Weddings, Wedding Industry Awards and ABIA.
Youâll find out:
their advantages and their shortcomings, plus how bias, undeclared interest, and pay-to-play tactics might affect how you feel about vendors who participate in these awards, andhow best to view wedding industry awards when youâre researching and putting together a short-list of your vendor dream team to make sure that youâre not left disappointed or taken advantage of.Iâm hoping to give you a balanced and insightful look into the value for you and the general impact of wedding industry awards. Do they help engaged couples make informed decisions or do they just act as thinly veiled (pun intended) marketing smoke and mirrors to get your business?
Spoiler alert: I think youâre going to be surprised when I tell you the truth.
