We dive into the so-called “wedding tax,” whether AI has a real role in planning, and why personal touch always matters more than any tool. We talk about wedding photography as more than just pretty pictures—it’s about capturing real, human moments—and we look at how traditions can be both grounding and restrictive.

A big part of our chat is about communication: how couples often struggle to say what they want, and how vendors can listen and guide without pushing their own agenda. At the end of the day, I believe weddings aren’t about appearances—they’re about connection, authenticity, and creating memories that actually last.
