Welcome to The Bouquet Toss, the podcast that helps you plan your wedding day, your way! We’re your hosts, Jessica and Sari, and each episode, we dive deep into the traditions and trends you either love, hate, or don’t quite understand.
 
In today’s episode, we’re breaking down the “average” wedding cost—myth, math, or manipulation? Special guest Sarah Ghabbour from Loved Twice Bridal joins us to reveal how her business is transforming the luxury wedding gown market with curated, pre-loved designer dresses. We’ll explore how opting for a secondhand gown can help couples save big while embracing sustainability, and we’ll also unpack the factors driving the “wedding tax” and why wedding budgets so often spiral out of control.
 
Episode Highlights:
- Why the “average” wedding cost is often misleading and how survey biases can skew this figure higher than expected.
- The rise of secondhand bridal fashion and how Loved Twice Bridal offers curated, high-end dresses that make luxury affordable and eco-friendly.
- Practical tips for creating a budget based on your priorities, with strategies for choosing where to spend and save.
- How buying a pre-loved gown can be a stylish, sustainable choice without compromising on quality or designer details.
