Brides, Grooms, and Pro Wedding Vendors, Are you ready for Prime Time?

Get ready for DJ Mark's, "Puttin' on the Ritz, a Wedding-Prep News, Opinion & Entertainment Show!" I'm launching this Vlogcast to discuss all-things Wedding with expert opinion and YOU are officially invited to join me in person or remotely via video conferencing! This Vlogcast will be available around the world on every mainstream Podcast and Video platform. In part, my show is about helping Brides find super talented vendors who know how to perform the perfect wedding. This includes problem solving in real time, working hard, preparing like no other, a having a willpower to do everything and anything to make a Bride's day spectacular! Am I talking about YOU?!

Besides covering the aspect of Wedding-Prep I want to reach way out there and discuss topics no one's touching, like how relationships form and work, what true love really means, how do I stop my anxiety, how can I get more motivation, who could help us with finding a house, my spouse doesn't really know how to make me happy, my spouse is an atheist, HELP - my spouse wants kids, I don't like my mother-in-law, and much, much more! LOL! The "much more" includes the entertainment aspect that you know and love from yours truly, the master of ceremonies, DJ Mark!

Are your Wedding related opinions and ideas smart, factual and exactly what the Wedding community needs to hear? Do you think people will relate and learn from what you have to share? Are you ready to back up and argue your points with me if we disagree in real-time? This form will help you get your ideas ready, you'll need to back up what you're saying.

I want to have a real conversation with you about real issues others can relate to. Yes, during recording I might ask for more factual info on what you're saying. That's because listeners and viewers are going to ask the same thing: "Where exactly did they get that information?" And that's the beauty of finally having a platform to discuss Wedding ideas: we're all going to grow by hearing and understanding the ideas and points of view of Brides, Grooms and Wedding Pros. It's High Time we pulled back the curtain and began a conversation about past and current Wedding Standards!

My goal is to raise the Wedding Industry bar by educating future Brides, Grooms and Vendors with your ideas! Teaching the newly-engaged Bride how to shop for the best is really all the top-shelf vendors need to do to hit that Grand Slam every year. It's time to create a palpable and clear separation between wannabe, hype 3-Star sales-vendors and real-deal, perfect-execution 5-Star vendors. We're going to accomplish this by educating the Bride on how to cut through red tape and understand where and when she's being fooled, motivate the Bride on rolling up her sleeves in an effort to do proper and diligent research, and encouraging the Bride with entertainment and fun. Let's both do all that by revealing the person behind the Veil, the Tux or business banner, that would be YOU! I hope you're ready to open up and lay out some truth.

Unless otherwise scheduled our conversation will be held remotely, you at your place with a video / audio device and me at my place. We'll use my no-cost-to-you video conferencing app, all you'll need to do is click on the link I send to your cell phone. The link will open up your default web browser, you'll enter your name, I'll hear a ring on my end and then answer your call. You'll need to be sure you have good wi-fi service and we'll test that on or before the day-of recording. Headphones are a huge plus so that we do not have poor audio quality and lag.

Be aware of my show's propaganda-free promise to the audience: This is not a business spotlight show; you are not coming onto the show to pump up your or another person's business. You're on the show to solve a specific problem which will be the centerpiece for each show (See Below). It's the "By The Way" at the end of the show that will highlight you and/or your business. For example, we solve the problem through live dialogue and then at the end: "Oh, by the way, this person does/ owns ______" and we go into short but thorough details on that. This show is not sponsored by our guests. You and I are not paying or trading money and/or services or favors as a result of our conversations. I believe this is exactly why the show will be a resounding success!

This form is my way of procuring information from you so that I can format it into a great show interview. Please be thorough. I'm good at doing research but I'd rather you just tell me exactly what you know and want to share for the episode(s).

Please keep in mind that I want to make this show as real as we talk when we don't have our "Wedding Nice" on. You might say something controversial but true as true can be. Great! We might disagree live on air. No Worries! Let's turn some heads while staying civil. Disagreeing will bring in the audience to help solve it with their live and replay comments! Let's solve problems and straighten out this wild-west Wedding Industry by showing everybody where the lines are and might be: And WE are going to help draw them!

During the show you might want to reference an article you read on the internet. I'd love it if you sent me the link(s) via text beforehand. These links will help backup for your statements and give your statements validity. For example, you might say that in 2019 the average cost for a Wedding in the US was $33,900; please add that you got that info from a report on theknot. com.

I'm looking for something to have an awesome conversation about, and you and only you can hit that grand slam for me. Think about those types of things in your life and business that you'd like Brides and Grooms to be aware of, that you'd like to teach a Bride/Groom about; think outside of the box. Once I identify great topics and ideas you present I will pick one and we will focus it for one show. In part, the show is about identifying a specific problem that you can solve with grandeur. It may be an intricate problem with intricate solutions. Super! It may be a nuanced problem with easy solutions. Bring it! Hopefully you can present me with more than one so we can have follow-up shows.

Your invitation to and your completion of this form is by no means a promise by me that you'll be on the show. Please wait on a follow-up communication for those details.

Thank you for participating! Let's raise the bar and grow our Chattanooga Wedding Market! (Who knows, we may even raise the bar for the entire US and World Wedding Industry! Is the sky the limit? ;)
