S2EP.01: Planning our weddings and getting married ft. Gown Eyed Girl

Romy talks fashion

In this episode, I sit down with Kennedy Bingham, a talented bridal stylist, to dive into her journey in the fashion industry and hear about her personal wedding planning experience. We explore the importance of blending creativity with business acumen in the fashion world and how social media platforms, especially TikTok, are changing the game for bridal stylists.

We also get real about wedding planning—everything from the emotional rollercoaster, budgeting stresses, and family expectations to the joys of personalizing your day. Kennedy offers invaluable advice for brides-to-be and reflects on the surprises, both good and bad, that can pop up during the big day. We chat about elopements, uninvited guests, seating arrangements, and the financial realities that come with weddings.

The conversation goes deeper into the traditions surrounding marriage, including how religious, cultural, and societal influences shape weddings today. Kennedy and I talk candidly about navigating those traditions, especially when they intersect with cultural and racial dynamics. We wrap up with a rapid-fire Q&A where Kennedy shares her insights on bridal fashion, the art of compromise, and her thoughts on whether investing in that dream dress is really worth it.
