#20: Wedding Hotline Chaos: Etiquette, Family Drama & Timeline Truths
Wedding planning is stressful enough... then you add daylight savings, family drama, etiquette confusion, and unsolicited opinions.
In this episode, we’re answering real listener-submitted hotline questions and giving our unfiltered take on wedding etiquette, timelines, and boundaries. We kick things off by breaking down why fall and winter wedding timelines matter more than you think, how daylight savings can ruin your photos, and why the sun is the one thing you can’t negotiate with.
Then we dive into your questions, including:
- Is an engagement ring a Christmas gift or do you still need to buy presents?
- Can (or should) your future mother-in-law give a speech at the reception?
- Did you break etiquette by not sending save-the-dates to everyone?
- Family meltdowns, wedding-weekend boundaries, and when to put your foot down
- Venues wasting couples’ time during booking
- Mother-in-law tension, dress shopping pressure, and when to let it go
- The very real post-wedding blues nobody talks about
If you’re planning a wedding, dealing with family opinions, or just want validation that you’re not crazy… this one’s for you.
