Planning a wedding in a raw space sounds dreamy—until you realize you’re basically building a venue from scratch. In this solo episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of Emma & Tucker’s wedding: a beautiful hilltop celebration filled with joy, logistics, and a whole lot of lessons.

From vendor meals that missed the mark to managing sound between toasts and band breaks, I’m sharing the real deal of what worked, what I’d do differently, and why buffer time is your best friend. We’re talking rentals, generators, first-look regrets, and how to protect your clean reception shots from early guests and rogue purses. If you’re a couple or a planner considering a raw space, this one’s for you.

✨ Plus: the little sentimental touches we always save for our couples, and why they matter more than you think.
