Plan Your Dream Wedding with I Do Diary

Meet NZ Founder – Jasmine Traynor

Planning my wedding amidst the covid pandemic was a rollercoaster to say the least. As the bride-to-be, I felt a lot of the brunt of the planning fell squarely on my shoulders. The final months leading up to the wedding felt daunting and overwhelming. Even on the day itself, it was hard to truly unwind, let go, and fully immerse in the celebration. Looking back, despite the joy of the event, I couldn’t shake the question: Why do brides endure such stress to create the ‘perfect day’ at the cost of their own happiness leading up to it?

Conversations with fellow brides revealed I wasn’t alone in this experience. Many shared the stress of wedding planning, shedding light on the silence around its challenges. It seems that the bride is expected to know exactly what she wants and tends to take the reins when it comes to planning and keeping track of it all. Quite frankly, it’s exhausting! From this discovery, it became clear that brides needed a more supportive, enjoyable approach to wedding planning. This led me to dedicate the next year to crafting the ultimate wedding planning brand.

I Do Diary was designed to reshape the experience into a joyful journey, lifting the burden from fellow brides’ shoulders and taking the stress out of wedding planning.

Thanks for visiting, and here’s to a blissful wedding planning experience ahead!
