Ever wondered what weddings actually look like on the other side of the Atlantic?

In this episode, I'm joined by Daisy Bradley, weddings and events director at The Post Barn in Berkshire, UK, and a 2025 bride herself. We dig into UK wedding trends, how the industry is shifting in response to Gen Z couples, shorter engagement timelines, and what vendors and venues are doing differently to keep up. Daisy also opens up about what it was really like to plan her own wedding after 15 years of running everyone else's, and the advice she gives every couple now that she's been on both sides.

Key takeaways:

  • How UK wedding trends are shifting, from shorter engagement timelines to price transparency and flexible packages
  • The top three yeses and top three nos framework Daisy gives every couple to cut through wedding planning overwhelm
  • What Gen Z couples actually want from their wedding experience (and why tradition is taking a backseat)
  • How The Post Barn builds a dream vendor team, and why feeding your suppliers matters more than you think
  • What championing women in the wedding industry really looks like, from maternity leave to recognition on the day
  • Listen in for a genuinely fun cross-cultural conversation that will make you think about weddings a little differently.
