We all want our guests to have a good time at our wedding, to feel connected by our love story and like they really matter on the big day. But how do you actually make that happen? How do you get your guests involved in your wedding so they feel like part of it, rather than just witnesses to what's happening? How do you take them from a bored audience watching a show to engaged loved ones you actually get to spend time with? And how do you do it all without blowing your budget or adding a million things to your wedding to-do list?

In this week's episode, I'm diving into what connecting with your wedding guests really means and how you can start designing a connective wedding from the early planning stages. I'll share tips for how to involve your guests in your pre-wedding events and your ceremony, then come back in the next episode with tips for the rest of your wedding day.

If there's one wedding tradition I stand by, it's wedding thank you cards. Yes, they're an old school wedding tradition, but they're also a really thoughtful and polite way to thank your guests not only for their gifts, but for the time, effort and love they put into your wedding.

In today's episode, I'm breaking down all of the wedding thank you card do's and don'ts. I'll tell you who gets a card, when to send them, what to do if someone didn't give you a gift and how to actually get all of your cards written on time in a (hopefully) fun way. Plus, I'll share a step-by-step template you can follow to write your own thank you cards!
