We have Ashley’s wedding planner in the house! Jacquelyn Aleece, founder of The Wedding Plan & Company, joins us to answer all your burning questions about weddings and spill some tea. We discuss money stuff – how much a wedding actually costs, where to save and where to splurge, her #1 budgeting tip, if there really is a “wedding tax” when it comes to vendors, and so much more. We’re also chatting about the biggest mistakes couples make when planning, bands vs. DJs, and how to make your wedding feel more fun/less stuffy. As for the tea – What kind of bride is Ashley? Can Jacquelyn tell if a couple isn’t going to make it? What’s the biggest drama at weddings? – and more. Before she joins us, we’re catching up on Rayna’s houseguests and Ashley’s wedding dress drama. Enjoy!
