Your wedding day flies by. People will say lovely things you'll barely hear between hugs, and you'll laugh at stories you won't quite remember the next day. Photos and video capture how it looked. A podcast captures what was said: the voices, the stories and the wishes of the people who love you most.
⚡ In 30 seconds
- A podcast set at the wedding records interviews, games and messages from the guests.
- The interview with the couple is the heart of it: how you met, the proposal, the big day.
- The games break the ice and make for hilarious moments.
- The messages are kept so you can listen to them whenever you like.
Why a podcast at your wedding?
Because voices move us in a special way. Hearing your grandmother, ten years from now, telling how she met your grandfather, or your best friend saying what they never dared tell you, is nothing like looking at a photo. And it's fun too: guests have a great time on the set.
Photos capture how you looked. The podcast captures what people said to you.
The interview with the couple
It's the main episode. It can be recorded on the day, during a quiet moment, or a few days beforehand so you can arrive relaxed.
Questions that never fail
- 01
How did you meet?
You each tell your side. They rarely match.
- 02
What was your first impression?
The honest answer, now there's no going back.
- 03
How did the proposal go?
In full detail, nerves included.
- 04
What do you love most about each other?
Tissues at the ready.
- 05
Where do you see yourselves in twenty years?
One to play back in exactly twenty years.
Games for the guests
The games are what make people want to visit the set. Some of our favourites:
Six games you'll want on record forever
Who's most likely to...?
Guests answer about the couple: who'll get lost first, who'll cry at "I do", who cooks better.
The couple quiz
How well do the friends know the couple? Trick questions included.
Quick-fire questions
Ten questions in thirty seconds. Whatever comes out without thinking is pure gold.
Guess who said it
Quotes from the guests, and the couple have to guess who said them when they listen back.
The forbidden anecdote
That story nobody tells in public... but this time it's on the record.
Marriage advice
From long-married couples to the newlyweds. Wise, tender and sometimes surreal.
💡 Tip
Ask your witnesses to prepare a secret surprise: a song, a poem or a question for the couple. We'll keep it under wraps until we hand everything over.
Messages to treasure forever
As well as interviews and games, each guest can leave a short message. These are the ones you'll listen to most as the years go by:
- Wishes for the couple, in audio and, if you like, on video.
- Messages for your first anniversary, to open in a year's time.
- A time capsule to listen to on your silver anniversary.
- Stories from the older generation: grandparents and parents telling their own.
We deliver everything neatly organised via a private link, so you can go back to any message whenever you like.
How to organise it on the wedding day
| When | What gets recorded |
|---|---|
| Before the ceremony or a few days earlier | The interview with the couple |
| Drinks reception | Games and messages from guests |
| After the meal | Surprises, family stories and more games |
| Party | Quick messages and goodbyes |
✅ Before the big day
- Decide on the tone with us: heartfelt, fun or both
- List the people who simply have to visit the set
- Set aside a quiet corner, away from the music
- Let your guests know so they come ready to take part
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Setting up next to the party speakers.
- Leaving it all until the end, when there's too much noise (and too many drinks).
- Not having anyone to lead it: without a host, people clam up.
Not just weddings
It works just as well for anniversaries, golden weddings, milestone birthdays, retirements or family reunions. Any celebration where people have stories to tell deserves to be recorded. If the guests of honour are shy, you'll find some tips in how to lose your fear of the microphone, and ideas for questions in how to prepare an interview.
🎙️ How we do it at Abbsolut
We prepare the script with you, build the set, host the interviews and games, and deliver the edited episode with music, the clips and all the messages. Find out more about our wedding and party podcast service.
