Скачать или смотреть Wedding Q&A: What’s with the Millefoglie Craze and Are Vendors Really Ghosting You?

In this episode of Cut the Cake, we dive into the wedding trends that are shaping the industry right now, answer your burning questions, and share our own insights from years inside the world of weddings. As planners, stylists, and creators, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly trends evolve—and how important it is to anchor everything back to what feels uniquely “you.”

One of the biggest themes we explore is the rise of personalised styling. From custom florals to playful touches like Lego elements woven into table settings, we talk about how these details can tell your story without feeling forced or overly curated. It’s about creating a day that feels intentional, not Instagram-led.

We also unpack a question we’re asked constantly: “Why aren’t my vendors replying yet?” We break down the reality of vendor timelines—why things often feel quiet six months out, and what shifts as you get closer to the day. Our goal is to help you understand the rhythm of the planning process so you don’t panic during those quieter phases.

Another big topic in this episode is understanding what wedding planners actually do—and the difference between full planning, partial planning, and everything in between. We chat about who benefits most from each service level and help you figure out what kind of support will genuinely lighten your load rather than add to it.

And yes, we couldn’t resist talking about the trending cakes taking over Australia right now—especially the Millefoglie cake with raspberries. It’s one of those trends that’s not only visually striking but genuinely delicious, and we share why it’s popping up everywhere.

At the heart of all of it, we come back to this truth: your day should be an honest reflection of you as a couple. The choices you make—your styling, your vendors, your planning support—should feel aligned with who you are, not who you think you’re meant to be on your wedding day.
