We are Dan & Andrea DeWard. We’ve been married for 30 years as of last St. Patrick’s Day - Yes, we chose St. Patrick’s Day for our wedding and it was amazing! We have been in the wedding industry for over 25 years. When we initially started we thought all weddings were handled the exact same way. Some things we tried worked great and some things did not. We quickly learned every wedding has a unique style and flow to match the bride’s vision. That’s when we really started having fun and our business quickly grew.

We designed, owned and operated three large wedding venues in West Michigan coordinating and hosting hundreds of ceremonies and receptions. We also owned and operated additional lines of business (with our amazing team) including a bridal gown salon, tuxedo rentals, photography & video studio, DJ company, floral & decor studio, photo booths, limousine, party bus and invitation design. Yes, we owned and operated all of those businesses in the wedding industry! We also organized and hosted a large bridal show for a number of years. All that experience and the many amazing connections we made along the way led us to launching this podcast!

If you are ready to have fun during your wedding planning process, create and stay on budget, connect with a variety of experienced experts and learn tips to create a wedding day timeline - this podcast is for you!

If you have that huge printed wedding binder… go ahead and close that for now and say “YES” to the Wedding Planning Experts podcast.
