Nobody talks about what happens after the wedding. Nobody talks about what happens after the wedding. After months of planning, anticipation and excitement, suddenly the day you’ve been waiting for is over. For some couples, the quiet that follows can feel surprisingly difficult.⁠ ⁠ You can have had the most incredible wedding day and still feel flat afterwards. You can be grateful, happy and excited for married life, and still miss the anticipation of what was.⁠ ⁠ On Polka Dot Wisdom, relationship therapist @amandalambros explores the post-wedding blues, why they happen and how couples can navigate this transition with a little more understanding and compassion.⁠ ⁠ Read more via the link in our bio. ⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A couple holds hands while walking together after their wedding.

What if your wedding ceremony felt like you, and n What if your wedding ceremony felt like you, and not a production? ⁠ ⁠ Today on Polka Dot Wisdom, Melbourne celebrant and MC, @meganjordancelebrant, asks couples to pause before getting caught up in the noise of wedding planning and come back to the heart of it all: why you’re getting married, how you want to feel, and what matters most to you.⁠ ⁠ From finding your “why” to choosing three wedding values to guide your decisions, Megan shares a beautiful reminder that your wedding doesn’t need to tick every box or follow every trend. It just needs to feel right for you.⁠ ⁠ Read more via the link in our bio!⁠ ⁠ Photography: @finderseekerphotography⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A joyful wedding ceremony taking place in a lush glasshouse filled with hanging greenery and vibrant orange and cream flowers.
