In this episode of TheSavvyCast, professional wedding planner Kalee Baker shares her best advice and tips on orchestrating a wedding during a pandemic.  Here are a few snippets of the story she shares on the podcast.

  • Kalee briefly talks about giving birth a few weeks prior to the wedding, just as hospitals implemented the "no visitors" rule.
  • The wedding was changed three times to comply with social distancing guidelines that went from 25 to 10 to shelter in place.
  • Per doctor's orders, Kalee could not attend the wedding and had to direct it virtually.
  • Everyone involved~friends, family, vendors, and neighbors~went above and beyond to make the wedding special.
