Bride & joy

By: Amanda Costa Thompson
  • Summary

  • My superpower is to help you become the best version of yourself, while planning the wedding you actually want, with calmness and a confidence boost! Having been a bride myself, helped countless wedding couples with planning, design, production and been an architect for 8 years, I want to help you along the way, so that you not only have the world's best wedding day, but also the world's best journey to get there! I share things I've never shared before, we go deep in to wellness, personal development, mental health and all the ups and downs of being a bride to be. We interview earlier brides, share their stories, take you on site visits, behind the scenes and in to the wedding world.


    There is a lot to think about when planning your wedding, and I believe that every bride deserves an unforgettable wedding day, but most importantly a unique journey on the way to your wedding day. One where you can look back and say how much you would love to do it all over again and never forget the journey. In order to get there, you have to make conscious choices, know what to do and most importantly, take care of yourself along the way.
