Weddings are often planned with sustainability in mind, from reducing waste to serving plant-based menus.

But what about how they feel? In this episode, we explore emotional sustainability: how to create a wedding that nourishes rather than drains, that feels grounded, intentional, and deeply aligned with who you are.

What if your celebration didn’t just look sustainable, but truly felt sustaining?

In this episode:

💚 What emotional sustainability means in the context of weddings

🌿 The power of slowing down and the “slow wedding” movement

🌀 The hidden cost of overcomplicating, and how simplicity fosters real connection

🌸 Practical tips for designing a wedding that supports your well-being.

Takeaways:

• Authentic weddings feel better than “performative” ones.

• Fast weddings can feel fragile, slow ones create space for meaning.
