In This Episode
Why are some moms-of-the-bride feeling stuck?
Previous generations often had their moms plan, while Millennials/Gen Z want to plan themselves—set clear roles early so MOBs feel included, not sidelined.
How do we handle decision fatigue/wedding fatigue?
Limit social scrolling, take a planned break, then return to the top priorities with fresh eyes.
What should we know about hotel room blocks?
Many require multi-night minimums or financial commitments—confirm terms and ask your planner about alternatives like boutique hotels, rentals, or BnBs.
