  • Broccoli Bouquets, Bachelorette Safety & Why Micro Weddings Are Having a Moment
    Jul 14 2026

    Have you heard about "Broccoli Gate"? A bride swapped her bridal bouquet for an actual bunch of broccoli — and Adriana has thoughts.

    In this solo episode of The Pre Nup, host Adriana Brauckmann breaks down the bridal bouquet alternatives that miss the mark (hello, book bouquets and baby's breath boas) versus the ones actually worth trying, like the single stem and the parasol.

    Then she gets into the influencer-ification of bridal parties — why those $5,000 bridesmaid proposal boxes you're seeing online are PR gifting, not a standard to chase — plus real bachelorette party safety tips, honeymoon and venue security (including what to do with your cash gifts), and a full breakdown of why a micro wedding might be the move for your guest list and your budget. She closes with an afterparty rapid-fire round covering the most overrated wedding tradition, the one splurge that's worth it, and how to handle a destination wedding gift.

    In this episode:

    • "Broccoli Gate" — the viral bridal bouquet swap breaking the internet
    • Bridal bouquet alternatives ranked: rings, baby's breath boas, and books (skip) vs. single stems and parasols (yes)
    • Why bridesmaid proposal boxes and bachelorette party influencer culture are costing brides way more than they realize
    • Bachelorette party travel safety: the buddy system, drink safety, and staying alert in bachelorette-heavy cities
    • Honeymoon and venue security — safe alternatives to hotel safes and how to handle wedding cash gifts
    • Micro weddings: why smaller guest counts open up bigger budgets, better food, and more intimate design choices
    • A script for telling guests they're not invited to a micro wedding or elopement, without the awkwardness
    • Afterparty rapid fire: most overrated wedding tradition, the splurge that's worth it, destination wedding gift etiquette, and the biggest wedding money-wasters

I’m your host, Adriana, and each week, I’m joined by the industry’s top professionals, celebs, influencers, and friends who are sharing their best tips, advice, and the mistakes they’ve made so you don’t have to. In this episode, host Adriana is joined by attorney Nicole Noonan, affectionately known as the “Divorce Fairy Godmother,” to tackle everything you didn’t know you needed to about prenups, postnups, and the dreaded “dirty D-word”—divorce. While these topics may not feel glamorous, Nicole reframes the conversation, showing how these agreements are actually acts of love and planning for a secure future. Nicole shares real-life stories about the surprising things couples fight over, from airline miles to family farms, and explains why having a prenup is like wearing a seatbelt—you don’t plan to crash, but it’s better to be prepared. Adriana and Nicole also dive into postnups, estate planning, and how to approach tricky conversations with your partner while keeping the romance alive. 💍 Episode Highlights:

    • Why prenups are an essential part of planning for a long-lasting marriage.
    • Surprising prenup clauses (like weight limits and cheating penalties) and whether they hold up in court.
    • Practical tips for starting the prenup conversation without awkwardness.
    • The difference between prenups and postnups—and when to revisit them.
    • What to consider if you’re contributing to a partner’s premarital assets, like their home.
    • The realities of separation, annulment, and navigating divorce proceedings.

    Nicole also shares her favorite honeymoon hotspot (hint: it’s exotic and Instagram-worthy!), her go-to wedding dance floor song, and why a shrimp cocktail is the ultimate wedding hors d’oeuvre. Whether you’re deep in wedding planning or just curious about the legal side of marriage, this episode is packed with advice to help you feel empowered, informed, and ready for whatever the future holds. We love hearing from you! Feel free to reach out to us at podcasts@lovestoriestv.com with your feedback or suggestions for the next episode.
