Hello my friends and welcome to another episode of The Wedding Wombat and the last one for the year 2021!

It has been another tough year for everyone planning their weddings and equally for all of us working in the wedding industry!

In this episode, we are looking back at the last two years and counting down the Top 5 most popular episodes and some of the wisdom from each.

To work this out, I looked at all the listener stats and downloads and divided each by the number of months to make it fair. We have had some great episodes and really interesting guests… which episodes do you think will be in the Top 5? You might be surprised. I know I was…

Enjoy this episode and have a wonderful Christmas and a safe new year. Let’s hope 2022 that is easier for weddings.

We also speak to the fabulous Genevieve Dennis from Easy Name Change. Gen has some interesting stats and information about changing your name and explains how her business helps couples do it… stress free! Did you know the typical bride has an average of 22 organisations to change names with? And most companies require the same repetitive information, completed on various forms, all sent to different addresses? That’s where Easy Name Change comes in!

Easy Name Change are a technology company that streamlines the process of creating custom personalised notifications for over 2,000 organisations around the world. Just select your companies and provide some brief personal information, then they’ll provide customised paperwork ready for you to sign and send. Where the customer doesn’t yet have their new name sorted they also provide the necessary forms and explain the process.

Easy Name Change quickly grew to offer personalised kits in the UK, Canada and New Zealand. In 2012 Easy Name Change launched in the USA. All programming and development is done in house and they employ a team of research assistants to keep global databases up to date.
