⁠Did you hear? Yesterday, we launched The feel G ⁠Did you hear? Yesterday, we launched The feel Good Wedding Podcast and today? We're introducing you to our first three guests. You're going to love them!⁠ ⁠ Episode 1: Meet @willburton.au . Will and John tied the knot in a ceremony at the Sydney Harbour Bridge before brunch with friends and an incredible after party, Will chatted about how he and John fell in love with Australia and the tricky parts about planning the wedding as an LGBTQI+ couple. ⁠ ⁠ Episode 2: Ever wondered what scent to wear on your wedding day? We asked Tiktok star, Peta Morton aka @petamarine to dive into wedding scents with us.⁠ Peta, who is also studying to be a marine biologist, dives into the science of scent and gives us all the very best tips and tricks she has for choosing your wedding day scent. Finally, she dives into thinking beyond perfume & cologne and scenting your day in its entirety.⁠ ⁠ Episode 3: Wedding pro? We have episodes devoted just to you! In Episode Three, we meet Sydney wedding veteran, celebrant and MC @rpmarryme. We chat with Robyn about her surviving as a wedding celebrant during a pandemic, why she became a wedding MC and how she's managed to stay authentic in business in a world when being yourself is sometimes not cool.⁠ ⁠ Catch all the episodes on the link in our bio now.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ [Image Description in comments.}⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #AustralianWeddings #AustralianWedding #WeddingVendors #WeddingDirectory #WeddingWebsite #WeddingInspo #WeddingInspiration #WeddingBlogger #TheFeelGoodWeddingPodcast #WeddingPodcast #Podcast #AustralianPodcast #AustralianWeddingPodcast #WeddingPlanning #Podcaster⁠ #twobridesonewedding #twobridesonelove #marriageequality #equallywed #lgbtplus #loveisallyouneed #loveislove #lgbtqweddings #lgbtqweddinginspo #lgbtqwedding #WeddingCelebrant #SydneyCelebrant #
Today, we are beyond thrilled to launch The Feel G Today, we are beyond thrilled to launch The Feel Good Wedding Podcast!.⁠ ⁠ It's taken two years to get here, but really, this one? it's been fifteen years in the making. We started rumbling about it, and then we changed our name, we built a website, and we went through epically long lockdowns.⁠ ⁠ But finally (after six, seven, or eight months of planning thanks to flu season!), we're here. This is a podcast born out of your stories. Fifteen years of them. Out of the way you continually inspire us with the detail, the thought, and the meaning behind your day. We love a good chat, and we've been doing it for years, so as we celebrate fifteen years of weddings, we wanted to dive a little deeper. We wanted to have conversations not just about the pretty, which we adore, but about what matters beyond that.⁠ ⁠ There are interviews with our Polka Dot Wedding couples. tips and tricks from our very own beloved PDW members, business inspo from fellow pros and experts (for those of you in the industry) and of course, plenty of fun.⁠ ⁠ We have no fancy recording equipment and no polished moments. We're nervous. We stumble on words, we mess up the sound, and we're doing it all from the floor of our bedrooms and living rooms (with the heaters off because, noise). But, as with everything Polka Dot Wedding, we've never actually been about the polish, we've been about the stories.⁠ ⁠ ⁠We've dropped three episodes that we can't wait for you to hear.⁠ You can find them now on the link in our bio (and we'll be diving in a little more to each tomorrow!)⁠ ⁠ Let the adventure begin!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ [Image Description: A navy graphic, In the centre, is a picture of an old-fashioned white microphone, with red and pink hearts floating out of the top left.

“We were so relaxed. From the moment we decided “We were so relaxed. From the moment we decided to get married to saying I do! We woke up and prepped some platters for later that day. Lit the fire (was a rainy, cold, down south day) greeted our guests, and then had someone come and do my hair and make-up. When our celebrant and photographer arrived we got changed from our trackie pants and got married. We were both so relaxed and enjoyed every minute of it."⁠ ⁠ Well, this definitely sounds like the perfect, no-stress elopement!
