We've all been there...when your spouse watches "our show" without you! Or how about when you want to watch something and they have no interest? How do you "compromise" and "commit" to a program together? Dan & Marita each give insights into what has worked in their relationships and give you some tips!

Between the multiple streaming services out there, there has to be one you watch with your significant other, right? Do you wait for them to come around or do you dive into a series together?

12/08/2022

We don't know if Marita's birthday gift to Dan was as good as his gift to her (I mean how do you top a Ladyship?) BUT it was a worthy attempt!

When making a guest list for your wedding, do you give a plus one to certain people or everyone that you plan to attend? Things can get ugly REAL fast.

14/07/2022

What's the WORST seating assignment/arrangement you ever had at a wedding? Seated next to an ex? Seated upstairs (if split floor reception)? Seated right next to DJ/speakers that blew out your ear drums? Tell us! We want to know! You're not alone...

23/06/2022

The official story of how Dan and Marita legitimately became "Lady Marita" & "Lord Daniel The First"! You can listen to it unfold here in real time. Pretty cool.

Marita had a topic for this weeks episode but Dan surprised her with a late birthday present. Hint: it has to do with her so-called Scottish heritage.

10/06/2022

No food at the wedding but hey don't worry Mickey & Minnie are here...for 30 minutes but they're here! Unreal. We discuss what this couple did and whether or not they are the AIRL...

Hint: Yes, yes you are.

There's a couple out there who used some of their wedding budget to arranged an appearance by Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Nice right? Well, it came at the cost of food being served to the guests. Take a listen.

06/05/2022

The latest episode is out! Who's had a themed wedding? Star Wars themed wedding anyone?

In honor of Star Wars Day (when this episode was recorded) Dan convinced Marita to talk about how to have a Star Wars themed wedding. Does she like the idea or is she working for the Empire and hates it?

Hey I just met you, and this is crazy, but here's our entrance, let's have fun, maybe? How would you pair off your bridal party to make their entrance for both the ceremony and reception? Marita and Dan discuss!

08/04/2022

You know it's that time again...a new episode is out of The Bridesman Podcast!

Give us your suggestions for what title to replace Matron or Maid of Honor with?

07/03/2022

Yo, should there really be two separate terms? Is it REALLY that necessary? We are in 2022, not 1922...or 1822! Dan & Marita discuss!

There are things that keep Dan awake at night. Why are we here? Why did George Lucas disappoint us and change it so Greedo shot first and not Han? And an all important one: what is the difference between the Maid of Honor and a Matron of Honor? Good thing Marita is here...

01/03/2022

YAY or NAY on wedding day surprises? By that we mean surprises for the Bride or Groom that they did not plan...

We discuss in our latest episode, here!

So the wedding is ready to go. Everything is planned. But wait! There's a surprise! Marita & Dan discuss how you can handle some of the curve balls thrown at you.

18/02/2022

Introducing the Bridesman After Dark! Where we discuss who does romance better Disney or Comic Books. Clearly it took a s*xual turn hence the "After Dark"!

*Not intended for children* As Dan says, "for safe s*x listen to the Bridesman podcast!".

This new episode available now on the iHeartRadio App, Spotify, or anywhere you listen to podasts!

16/02/2022

Tips for how to give a great Best Man Speech! We talk to who we are calling the Best Man Guru who has given multiple Best Man speeches...and no its obviously not Dan the Bridesman... HA! Do you do a roast or a short & sweet speech? How to determine the style. Take a listen, here!

How about Dan & Marita get advice from someone who has been a Best Man...twice! It's Marita's husband who joins them on this weeks episode.

08/02/2022

This episode Dan tells us how he would write a best man speech in the unlikely event anyone ever asked him too... so his "fake advice" really...

https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1248-the-bridesman-80000191/episode/can-you-do-a-best-man-92476097/?cmp=web_share&embed=true

P.S. We also hear about Dan's unhappy delivery experience...HA!

Dan's no expert when it comes to this topic because he has never been asked to be a best man...ever. Here what he might do if he was ever asked based on what others have done.

31/01/2022

Marita was a Matron of Honor recently and so she decided to do a solo episode (she was sick of Dan) here giving tips for how to write a great MOH speech! Check it out!

Dan had to take a week off (which you can tell Marita is happy about) so this is a solo episode where Marita chats about how to give a Maid/Matron of Honor Speech!

29/01/2022

Talk about crazy wedding expectations! This was a fun episode if you missed it. What would you do if your bride friend told you you had to be a certain size to be in their wedding?!? After initial shock of it…

On top of a rant about how Disney made everyone think weddings had to be fairy tales, Marita & Dan discuss a story they found about one over-the-top bride and her demands for her bridesmaids!
