David Landua
Dave and Kellie interview one of Gippslands favourite musicians, Mr Danny Eddy.
Danny has been around the Gippsland music scene for 30 odd years. He has held residency at several pubs in that time and played at hundreds of weddings, so we were stoked to be able to get an insight into his experience and hear some of his war stories
This episode is with Cassandra & Josh at the time of this interview, these guys were planning their wedding for Feb 2020. But in a horrible twist, Cassandra was thrown a massive unforeseen health curveball, which unfortunately led to them needing to postpone their wedding, but as it turned out they brought it forward and having a very private ceremony on the 4th of Jan.
This interview is full of love, respect and meaning, along with quite a few laughs, I would have too say I thoroughly enjoyed interviewing this amazing couple, Cassandra & Joshua King.

We cover How she became a celebrant, what drew her to this profession, what she loves most about being a celebrant and also some tips, advice, must haves and fun spins on the ceremony for those wanting to change things up a little.

Tonight Dave & Kellie talk “first look” - to look or not to look!
Controversial topic both in-studio and outside (friendly controversy of course)
What is a “first look”?
Seeing each other before the ceremony.
The moment of seeing each other for the first time lasts longer.
Whos there for the first look, eg photographer and video only.
The intimacy of the moment.
Can be Done in many different ways.
Kellie - a little selfishly is against the first look as she wants to see and is witness to that intimate and exciting moment of when the couple locks eyes for the first time.
Dave - is pro as he still gets to witness that moment and being the photographer / / videographer he is able to artistically create some beautiful anticipation here.
Are you are for or against the “first look”?
Have you done a “first look”?
What was your first look like and what were the reasons you decided to have a “First Look”
