61. Orua Beach House Wedding with Bride & Photographer Tasha Meys

The beautiful, talented Tasha Meys joins us on the podcast today. Recent bride, and wedding vendor herself being a photographer. This is one is full of incredible advice and perspective, it is one you will get a lot out of!
A few things we cover:
💜 Her background in photography, resisting doing weddings for a while and eventually falling in love with them as soon as she photographed one.
💜 How she met her husband, crossing paths in their careers and then eventually socially.
💜 Their off-the-grid proposal and how they soaked up their just-engaged bubble.
💜 Finding the perfect venue that reflects them as a couple.
💜 Being intentional with planning to enjoy every part and make tasks an experience and memory with others.
💜 Choosing her bridal party and considering how much involvement they had in the leadup, not putting expectations or pressure on people.
💜 Their pre-wedding events and how that gave them so much more quality time with their guests.
💜 How the energy of everyone around you really sets your day and how to intentionally set the tone.
💜 Having a moment alone on her wedding day and how grounding that was.
💜 The importance of an on-the-day coordinator.
💜 Choosing quality over excess.
💜 Post-wedding blues and the actual chemicals in your brain that have a part to play in it.
💜 How communication is so important for vendors and how you can tell someone's vibe even through their emails.
...and so much more!
