79. Mantells Mt Eden Wedding with Bride Emma Ritchie

A lovely chat with Emma on the podcast today. Recent bride, married at Mantells Mt Eden. We hear all about her experience and advice. 

A few things we cover:

💜 Meeting through mutual friends and then a beautiful at-home proposal.

💜 Falling in love with Mantells and the ease of using a venue where you don’t have to bring everything in. 

💜 Not necessarily getting “the feels” or emotion you see in movies while dress shopping but finding the right one a Hera Couture and falling in love with it. 

💜 Focussing on a classic and timeless look for their wedding day. 

💜 How intentional they were choosing the 65 on their guest list and that feeling like a nice intimate number.

💜 One key vendor… a coordinator, and how that helped them feel relaxed on the day.

💜 A private moment with just the two of them following the ceremony.

💜 Dealing with wedding content overload and the pressure of what you “should do” for your wedding.

...and so much more!
