22: These 3 Important First Steps in Your Wedding Planning Change Everything

Every week, newly engaged couples ask me where they should start with their wedding planning. And there are so many conflicting opinions, information and guides available. So today I'm going to share with you what I believe to be the 3 indisputable, foundational and crucially important first steps you need to take after you get engaged. This is before you go and book anything in, go to venue opens or start dress shopping. I've also sourced some sobering data about wedding debt, which indicates that the quality of your relationship and marriage are more likely to be negatively impacted if you are not addressing step 3 with your fiancé before you get married. Resources Mentioned:Save big money on your wedding by committing to your top 3 non-negotiable must haves: https://unbridely.com/blog/top-3-wedding-priorities Lending Tree Survey:https://www.lendingtree.com/personal/newlywed-debt-survey/ Ask me a question or tell me about your wedding planning experiences in a 90-second audio message on Speakpipe:https://www.speakpipe.com/unbridelypodcast *The Unbridely Podcast is sponsored by its listeners.
