The sound quality and production is great and the host has a very soothing voice! Great podcast for 1.25x speed.
The host is clearly very educated, experienced, and extremely thoughtful in her content and it transcends the wedding planning industry. I shared episode... more
Apple Podcasts5hkcatzUnited States7 months ago - Valuable for a photographer, not just planners!
I’ve been listening to Desiree’s podcast for over a year now and find so much value in everything she says, as a wedding photographer myself. She has so much insight and experience in this industry. My favorite part of the latest episode is talking about how the word luxury is overused. I was just talking to my friend about this that it is so watered down and if you’re true luxury, you don’t have to say it, it’s felt.
I love Desiree’s heart behind everything she does, from this show to the wedd... more

Things have changed a LOT since my 1st wedding in 1989 (all
for the better - including the groom LOL). My commutes are spent listening attentively to your amazing advice, frequently grabbing my phone to record a “note to self”to capture some new nugget of i... more
