## Resource

Feeling overwhelmed by wedding planning decisions? In this episode of Engage with Jaime, Jaime tackles three big questions every engaged couple is asking right now. From what it’s really like to work with a wedding coordinator (and how much time you’ll actually spend together), to whether you can skip the DJ and run your reception with Spotify playlists, she’s breaking it all down in a practical, no-stress way. Plus, if you’re spiraling about when to book vendors—or wondering if you can DIY parts of your day without chaos—Jaime shares how to find that balance with confidence. If you want a smoother planning process (and fewer what-am-I-forgetting moments), this episode is for you.
