From the Host’s Desk...
What do weddings and podcasting have in common? (This is not a cheesy knock-knock joke, I swear.)
It’s taken me a little bit to figure this out, but now that I have, it makes perfect sense why I love hosting The Wedding Dish so much.
Weddings and podcasts are both about people. They are about celebrating people, honoring their stories, and truly connecting with others.
Connection is a huge theme in my life. I’m an extrovert, can’t you tell? As a wedding photographer, my push to connect with my couples long before I take out my camera. As the owner of District Bliss, I help facilitate connection between entrepreneurs at our networking events and workshops. And chatting with couples and wedding pros alike on The Wedding Dish makes me feel oh-so-connected, even if my guests are on the other side of the country.
I hope when you listen to The Wedding Dish, dear friend, you feel just as connected. Kinda like you’re listening in on your BFF’s super interesting convo with the person they sat next to at a dinner party.
So pour yourself a glass of rosé, and let’s dish!
Cheers,
Sara
