January: month of snow, wind, more snow, snow days, unplowed sidewalks…and weddings.
Forget June, January is the real wedding season, full of wedding shows and blowout dress sales, and on this week’s podcast, we three Old Marrieds have cajoled newlywed (and Financial Post personal finance reporter) Melissa Leong to give us her much more recent money-saving tips than ours, and – spoiler alert – none of them are going to be “have a potluck in your backyard”.
Plus – because we know you’re dying to know – I am going to tell you how I went from girl with a wedding mood board taped on the inside of my closet to woman who would have ditched the dress for jeans if she had a time machine, Robb’s going to tell everyone to stop judging people for wanting to have a special day, and Jackson is going to show us pictures of his hot wife.
You don’t want to miss the first Because Money of 2014!
AND HERE ARE SOME WEDDING PICTURES! #BecauseWeddings
