  • Insights from a Real-Life Bride Planning a Property Wedding: A Conversation with Meaghan Ryan
    May 20 2024

    Planning a property wedding is sometimes viewed as the easier wedding planning option. BUT, we are here to tell you that when couples do opt to wed at a property, whether it’s a private estate, a family garden, or an empty paddock, the logistics and details involved can quickly become overwhelming. But with that said, there are so many incredible benefits of planning a property wedding. So we thought what better way to give you real insights than by chatting with a real bride who planned a property wedding at her family farm.

    In this episode of Cut The Cake, we chat with Meaghan who recently went through the process of planning a property wedding and we discuss why Meghan and her partner Mitch, opted for this over a established venue and the research they did prior to making this decision.

    We touch on the challenges they faced, along with the lifelong memories they made from their day, the non-negotiables they had and that even though it rained on their special day, it didn’t ruin memories they now have.

    Plus Meaghan also shares her tips other couples embarking on their own property wedding journey. So, with that, here is Meaghan.
