We're at episode 50 (50!) of the Plan.Style.Do podcast and I'm tackling one of the questions I'm getting asked more and more frequently by couples - 'Do we need to send hardcopy paper wedding invitations, or can we opt for digital invitations for our guests instead?'
In this episode I'm running you through the pros and the cons of hardcopy wedding invitations versus digital invitations so you can choose the right option for you, your budget, your guests and your style of wedding.
Since my last episode on the Plan.Style.Do podcast we've received a LOT more clarity from the NSW Government around the roadmap out of COVID and what that means for couples getting married in the months ahead.
In New South Wales, after 1st December, it will be possible for unvaccinated people to attend a large wedding. Government restrictions aside, a lot of couples are still keen to put a compulsory double vaccination policy in place for their wedding for the health and safety of their family and friends.
So how can you do this without it being a huge stress on your wedding day?
In this episode I'm sharing 5 practical ways to minimise fuss around double vaccination status on your wedding.

We're baaaaack! With the second wave of COVID and a new bub on the way I've taken a break from the podcast for a few months but now it's so good to be back behind the mic and bringing you a brand new episode packed full of practical wedding planning advice.
The announcement of Gladys' 'Roadmap out of COVID' for New South Wales a few weeks ago has certainly given us all some light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to full-scale weddings and events returning, but it's also raised all kinds of ethical and etiquette dilemmas for couples around the issue of double vaccination status for their guests and their vendors.
It's certainly an emotive situation and one that can understandably, feel very overwhelming for couples a wedding so in this episode I share four key tips that will help you break down the issue and make it feel that little bit more manageable as you continue to plan your big day.
Stay up to date on the latest NSW Health restrictions and rules around public events here.
