Interview with Rebecca Mead

We routinely do podcast interviews with industry people for the 4EVER Group's web site. Earlier this year, a book was released about the wedding industry. Called “One Perfect Day: The Selling of the American Wedding,” the book was an unreasonable and scathing look at the wedding industry. The author went on a book tour, but I was successful in landing an interview with her in October, at her NY office. You can download the interview here: http://www.4evergroup.org/podcast_page.shtml

In our conversation, her question was “why do we even need a wedding industry”. That’s the kind of question most often asked in college dorm rooms, at 3am, after a whole lot of beer, when you’re going to solve all of the world’s problems.

Please go and download the interview, which runs about 35 minutes, for a glimpse into the mind of the author.

Wedding Industry Interviews

For some time now, I’ve been the host of podcast interviews that are found at The 4EVER Group web site, www.4EVERGroup.org. Generally, the content has been directed to professional videographers, as we spotlight the personalities is, and tools used by, our industry.

Because of the ridiculous new book about weddings (no plug for her!), we’ve started to branch out with our interviews, and include other wedding industry professional. When I was recently in California, we had the opportunity to do our first non-videographer interview, and that was also our first Vidcast.

I interviewed a wedding planner named Jeannie Savage, and her company is Details Details (www.aboutdetailsdetails.com). She’s a big proponent of professional video, maybe in part because she didn’t have a video at her own wedding. In the interview, she explains about two really crucial moments that happened (an extemporaneous toast from her father was one) that she just can’t remember fully, as her wedding was five years ago. In addition, she realized what a valuable memento the video would have been for her own children.
