Radio NZ Expert Feature: Wedding She Wrote

 

Have you ever found yourself in the midst of a hilarious mix-up? Well, we certainly have! 🙈

Here's the scene: Feeling like I was running late, I prepared for the interview with full makeup, perfectly straightened hair, and my go-to outfit – a timeless black jumpsuit with pockets. Lol. I even dared to wear heels! En route to Auckland CBD, picking up our intern, all the while convinced it was a video interview. But surprise, it turned out to be a journey through the world of radio! Radio waves only!

With makeup and all, I soon realized I had to stay camera-ready for the radio hosts' wedding planning questions. I was nervous, and whether it was to be video or radio video, I tried my best. 🙈  Going live with no retakes can be a bit stressful, but it's also a tremendous opportunity. And that's the enchantment of live radio!

A massive shoutout to Radio NZ for graciously inviting us to share our insights on their airwaves. And here's a friendly tip: when you click the link, you'll come across a photo that, well, wasn't captured by us! 😜

Dear Journalists, we understand the allure of stock-free photos, but not every wedding snapshot gets our seal of approval. Hehe. 😆📸 #WeddingFashionCrimes

 

The Lessons

  1. Get a better brief  😆
  2. Send a selection of photos to the radio station for them to use  😆
  3. Join Toastmasters or something  😆

This year has been… a lot. Selling our family house of 26-years, buying a house, moving home, travelling a lot for work; and a couple of weddings were cancelled—ouch. Not any fault of our own, but still, it stings every time.
