You’ve got the whole money thing sorted, but how do you actually put this event together? On this week's episode we break down why hiring a wedding planner or coordinator can save you money and time.  Especially if you aren’t that jazzed about all of the tiny little details that go into making your special day happen. Like organising chairs...or making sure someone is onhand when Aunty Beryl realises you're not getting married in a church and has a panic attack. Leish is here to break down the difference between wedding planners and coordinators so you can work out which one is right for you or whether you're going to bite the bullet and go DIY.

Now you’ve gotten the engagement out of the way, how do you plan your dream wedding without having to sell an organ to pay for it?  Does using the word "wedding" really make a quote three times higher?  And how do you keep those family members or ‘wedding donors’ from trying to take control in exchange for their generosity? There's no denying weddings are expensive and it's easy to feel pressure to spend way more than you can afford.  But is a wedding any better if it's four times the price or should you worry more about staying out of debt so you can start your new life on the right foot? There's nothing uncool about sticking to a budget and in this episode of Hitched we're here to help you ditch perfection and stick to your budget.  Subscribe to Hitched here.
