Kim from Cheshire ,

Love it

Bridechilla is the reason I’ve been engaged for over a year and haven’t planned a thing, just so I can go on listening as a bride to be forever!! Just kidding there are loads of reasons why nothing is decided but having this podcast has made the time fly by and I feel like when we can finally put the day together we will be ready to take on anything. Thank you Aleisha and all your amazing guests for the joy and advice you give us experts of procrastination! Love Kim

Funny, useful and practical

Superb podcast! Funny, practical and grounded advice for wedding planning. Aleisha is a charming and funny podcast host and the range of guests are really thoughtful from the psychology of handling wedding finances through to what to DIY (and what to absolutely not DIY!!) I've lots of experience of event planning for my work but found this an excellent resource as weddings are well weird...

Best resource I’ve found

Love, love, love this podcast! I’ve just got through most of the back catalogue. It de-stressed me but also made me realise I wasn’t alone with how I was feeling through the whole wedding planning process while giving amazing tips. It gave us the confidence to change certain early decisions we’d made that weren’t sitting right and even led us to seeking out and using suppliers featured in the podcast which we thought were out of our reach because we live in a rural area. Would recommended to everyone!
