Welcome to Knot Your Average Wedding Podcast.

Hosted by wedding planner Precious from Green Lily Events and Sean (Mr RG) Green Lily Bars, this podcast shares real wedding planning advice from both sides of the aisle.

In this show we unpack the myths, pressures and decisions that couples face while planning a wedding and share the lessons we’ve learned from years working behind the scenes at weddings.

If you're engaged and planning your wedding, you're in the right place.

Clarity over chaos starts here.

• Why Wedding Planning Feels So Hard

Welcome to the very first episode of Knot Your Average Wedding Podcast - real wedding chat from both sides of the aisle.

In this episode, Precious (wedding planner) and Sean (wedding industry bar owner) are talking about why wedding planning can feel so overwhelming, and why it often has less to do with weddings themselves and more to do with the pressure, expectations and endless decisions surrounding them.

We discuss:

• Why modern wedding planning feels so overwhelming
• The pressure created by social media and Pinterest
• Why too much inspiration can actually create confusion
• Family expectations and outside opinions
• Guest list pressure and budgeting reality
• Why no one really tells couples where to start
• The difference between planning a meaningful wedding vs a “perfect” one

We also introduce:

• Planner vs Reality
• Unknot This
• The Knot Inbox

If you’re currently planning a wedding and feeling stressed, behind, confused or overwhelmed - this episode is for you.
