EPISODE 5: Kid Free Weddings - Yay or Nay?

Our most controversial topic to date - should you have kids at your wedding, or should weddings be kid-free? Joe and I lay out our points for both cases, and end up with a *major* plot twist and surprise guests at the end. Intrigued? Listen in for all the details.

First and foremost, I LOVE KIDS. Whether or not they should be at a wedding is a different story. In this episode, Joe gets deep about kids’ meals, while I recount a very specific story about a bridesmaid-baby disaster. Brides, grooms, family and friends or anyone with a kid - you don’t want to miss this episode!
