In this week's episode, we sit down with Shelby's bride Hayley to unpack a two-year secret project that turned their wedding into something so much bigger. What started as a café conversation became a behind-the-scenes journey capturing everything from dress fittings and DIY moments to emotional family interviews all brought together into a same-day edit that had the entire room in tears. But this isn’t just about a wedding video. It’s about storytelling, legacy, and why your wedding might be more than just one day. If you’ve ever thought “it’s just a day,” this might change your mind. Visit Weddings Unfiltered: https://weddingsunfiltered.com.au/ Join The Wedding Vendor Academy: https://weddingswithshelby.com.au/wva-enroll Book Jem Weddings Deluxe Coordination: https://www.jemweddings.com.au/ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingsunfiltered_?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Be our next guest: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/form/p2yfwj1RC7MdEraxuiTR Share your story: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/form/Qu8nKxCGuFNOP2EOTBZj 

This week on Weddings Unfiltered, we're throwing it back to one of our favourite episodes from the archives, recorded last year during our Bali business retreat. What started as a few days away from the everyday chaos turned into some seriously honest conversations about business, self-doubt, people pleasing, confidence, failure, and learning to trust yourself. We talk about the importance of stepping away, creating space to reflect, and surrounding yourself with people who genuinely support your growth. We also get real about the mental load of running a business, why we're often our own biggest obstacle, and how taking time to slow down can help you see just how much you've actually achieved. Expect plenty of laughs, Bali stories, vulnerable moments, and a no-BS conversation about business, personal growth, and giving yourself permission to believe in yourself.   Visit Weddings Unfiltered: https://weddingsunfiltered.com.au/  Join The Wedding Vendor Academy: https://weddingswithshelby.com.au/wva-enroll  Book Jem Weddings Deluxe Coordination: https://www.jemweddings.com.au/  Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddingsunfiltered_?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==  Be our next guest: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/form/p2yfwj1RC7MdEraxuiTR  Share your story: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/form/Qu8nKxCGuFNOP2EOTBZj
