Lizzie talks to married couples and explores the real stories behind weddings.

The planning, the surprises, the challenges, the lessons learned, and the advice couples wish they'd known before saying, I do.

Whether you're planning a wedding, attending one, or simply curious about what's proper today, our conversation is going to have all kinds of practical wisdom, memorable stories, and insights that can help us all navigate relationships with a little more grace.

Welcome, Lizzie.

Thank you for being on the show.

It's great to have you back on Women Road Warriors.

You make manners and etiquette so much fun, Lizzie.

And we talked about all kinds of stuff in our previous interview.

Man, did we ever.

It was great.

You know, it seems like traditions have changed a lot when it comes to weddings, and there are really some outrageous things I've heard.

I've been meaning to bring this one up.

I thought it was outrageous.

I heard some couples are actually charging guests to attend their weddings.

One couple required a $150 gift.

Oh, God.

That's not how this works.

There are some cultures where it's not uncommon for the hosts to let guests know sort of what the per head cost is.

And then the guests actually do try and get something in that range.

But that's not how we operate here in the United States.
