Join us for Episode 58 of Feminist Money as we discuss:

Taylor Swift's wedding has everyone talking and not just because she's one of the biggest stars on the planet. Whether you're a Swiftie, planning your own wedding, or simply curious about the money behind one of the world's most talked-about couples, this episode explores the financial lessons hidden behind the celebrity headlines. We're breaking down what Taylor Swift's wedding can teach us about protecting wealth, managing wedding expectations and why some traditions are being left behind.

1. Feature: Taylor Swift's Billion-Dollar Love Story & The Prenup Question. Taylor once sang she'd marry with "paper rings," but with a billionaire fortune, protecting her assets is a very different story. We unpack why a prenup would likely be essential, why the public is so invested in her wedding, and what couples can learn from the way high-net-worth relationships handle money.

2. Research: Why Taylor Swift Reportedly Skipped Bridesmaids. Despite having an A-list circle of celebrity friends, Taylor reportedly chose not to have bridesmaids. We explore why that decision is resonating with so many people, alongside the growing trend of bridesmaids going into debt to pay for dresses, hen's weekends, travel and beauty costs.

3. Pop Culture: Taylor Swift's No-Gift Wedding & The Changing Rules of Wedding Presents. Reports suggest Taylor and Travis are embracing a no-gift approach, reflecting a wider shift away from traditional wedding registries. We discuss why more couples are asking guests to simply celebrate with them instead of bringing presents, and what this says about the future of weddings.
