We took a road trip up to Hodsock Priory to see our good friend George Buchanan, owner of the fantastic Nottinghamshire venue, Hodsock Priory. Not only did we discuss what it’s like to grow up with Hodsock as your childhood home, but we also touched on what it’s like to be a venue owner, why weddings, and the fascinating history behind the iconic gatehouse entrance.

From food fights in the Pavilion, to paintings that come alive at night, and what’s next for Hodsock Priory - we discuss it all!

Christmas has arrived on the podcast, in a very festive catch up. This week, we spoke to one of our favourite people - Emma Hardcastle. Emma is one of the founders of Hostology, and a fantastic role model for women in tech. We’re discussing her journey from the publishing industry to the tech industry, the story of Hostology and how it was formed, what Hostology can do for your venue, and of course, what’s next! Not only that, but we also chat to Emma about being a woman in tech, and the hardships that come along with that, the hot topic AI, and the reason she cycles to work (not what you’d expect). So, what are you waiting for? Give this week's episode a listen and enjoy another round of game time!

Next week, we will be talking to the amazing Lesley from The Rustic Wedding Company, all about being a wedding stylist!

We’re keeping it real this week and leaving in a few of our hiccups! If you ask Producer Adam, you’ll know that it took us a long time to get to a point where we can record a whole episode from start to finish with no mistakes, but it still happens sometimes! So, enjoy the laughs…

This week, we’re talking to the amazing husband and wife duo, Jack and Louise from Jackstar Weddings. They do a lot at Jackstar, including wedding DJ's, hiring a light up dance floor, photo booths and so much more. However, what we wanted to know was how they're such successful business partners, as well as husband and wife. They recently celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary with a renewal of their vows, and they spilled their secret to a happy life. Not only that, but Jack talks about being a contestant on this year's ‘BBC Ultimate Wedding Planner’, what’s next for Jackstar Weddings, and see how they do at this week's game time, all about music.

In today’s episode, we chat to the amazing Amy Mann, founder of Dress Me Pretty Bridal Room. Amy began DMP in her spare bedroom, and now the boutique has won several awards, including Best Bridal Retailer 2023 & 24, and Best UK Retailer 2023.

However, Amy didn’t stop there! She chats to us about her two other businesses, Pretty Stories, a clothing boutique and Katie Jacques Bridal, her own bridal brand.

We loved every second of this chat with Amy, she truly is like superwoman!

So, what are you waiting for? Give it a listen, and let us know what you think!

This week we’re catching you up on our trip down to Pylewell Park (yes, it took us 5 hours), and talking to the amazing Vicky from Inviting Writing! We chat about motorcycle table plans, broken mirrors, trend predictions for next year, and the different styles of calligraphy. Vicky is one of our favourite wedding stationery suppliers to work with for anything we do at our venues, so it was lovely to get the chance to sit down with her and catch up. Let’s not forget that hilarious game time on literature, where we test our general knowledge of the classics.

Join us next week, where we’re talking to the fabulous Amy Mann from Dress Me Pretty Bridal Room about all 3 of her businesses. We even ask Amy her advice for those wanting to get into the bridal industry, and her answer will surprise you!
