Well Bridal Beauties we can't avoid this any longer. You know what we are talking about....that big ol' elephant in the room.

SAYING YES TO YOUR DRESS.

On this weeks epsiode, Tash and Kass take time to talk about that dreaded question that every bride expects to be asked but has so many fears around. And guess what? It's totally normal. But it is also normal for your consultant to listen to your wants, needs and desires, then taking that knowledge and finding your dream dress. Which will ultimately lead to your consultant asking you if this is your wedding dress. We know how scary it can be, but know we are here to support you!

Take a listen, take some notes and get ready to have the best time dreaming about (and finding) your wedding dress.

From wild affairs, to a deceased loved one, to....welll....some things just aren't appropriate to write in our show notes. So grab your drink of choice, take a seat and join us for some crazy stories that you would never imagine to be true.

“Oh sad was her fate! In sportive jest, She hid from her Lord, in an old oak chest. It closed with a spring and her Bridal bloom, Lay withering there in that living tomb.”-Samuel Rogers


Do you love spooky stories? How about ghost stories? In this weeks episode, Tash tells Kass about the Bramshill House in Hampshire, England where a bride accidently died in a game of hide-and-seek. We know it's August but we thought it would be fun to break up all of our normal content with something fun, spooky and filled with holiday cheer!

Did you know in some countries, it's tradition for a bride to be kidnapped? There is even a tradition where couples use chainshaws!

On this weeks episode, Tash and Kass discuss some of the weirdest wedding traditions from all over the world. Some we've heard of and others....left us speechless. We are all about supporting family traditions but some of these make you stop and wonder 'why was this created in the first place?'

But in all jest, we want to thank Khush Magazine for creating such a fun article. We hope you enjoy this episode.

We had an official listener request! Thank you to Emily from Texas for sending us such a great topic to discuss 🎉

On this weeks episode, Tash and Kass are discussing how to choose who to invite to your wedding. This is probably one of the most emotionally driven areas of wedding planning. Most brides will hear "I better be invited" from a co-worker or from an extended family friend that they don't have a close relationship with. So how do you choose? And on top of that--do you allow children or no children to the wedding?

We always want to remind our listeners that the most important people are you and the person you are marrying. No one else. So always do what is best for you (both financially and emtionally) We hope this episode gives you a good base for start that daunting task of a guest list.

On this weeks episode, Tash and Kass dive into the meaning of the phrase "Beauty is Pain". Growing up Tash heard this phrase over and over whenever someone referred to beautiful clothing or shoes being painful. But why does beauty have to be painful? Why can't it be comfortable and effortless?

Kass took a deep dive on this phrase hoping she will be the one to educate Tash on something! (Highly unlikely but we shall see...) This epsiode is fun, informative and will hopefully allow us all to remove this concept from our everyday vernacular and make the future not only beautiful, but comfortable too!

Happy Pride Month to our favorite Nearlyweds! 🏳️‍🌈

On this weeks episode, Tash and Kass wanted to share some great insights on planning a wedding if you identify with the LGBTQIA+ community. We know it can be challenging to know where to go for vendors, how to choose which side pays for what, as well as many other traditional wedding aspects that maybe you as a couple don't identify with or know how to navigate.

Plus, Tash found a great article that gives a few updated options for more gender neutral wedding terms if you don't see yourself as a bride or a groom! We are all about love, support and learning when it comes to our LGBTQIA+ friends!

Thank you to all of our listeners who have been supporting us on this fun journey of podcasting!

Did you know that to much nagging will send your husband into the arms of another woman? No? Well then today’s episode will be a real treat for you!

On this weeks episode, Tash and Kass are taking a modern spin on vintage marriage advice. Kass purchased some vintage Delineator magazines from 1932/1933 at a local vintage store here in SLC which inspired this episode.

These articles are a good reminder that living in modern day 2023 is 1000% better than Victorian era because this advice isn't not for the faint of heart. Maybe there is a silver lining among all of these old world advices but we aren’t sure we found any.
