"You want to hear from your peers that you’re not alone."

Leah Haslage takes to the mic in a local interview featured in Cleveland Magazine!

In this recent Q&A, Leah shares her journey, passion for weddings, and top tips for keeping wedding planning as stress-free as possible—perfectly aligned with the laid-back vibe Bridechilla fans know and love.

A Local Talent with National Impact

Leah’s Cleveland roots make this feature especially exciting. As a well-known figure in the local media scene, she brings over a decade of experience in broadcasting, media production, and hosting. Before becoming the host of the Bridechilla Podcast, Leah was involved in several other popular wedding podcasts, including Tales from Behind the Veil with Patrice Catan and Weddings Unveiled with Leah Haslage. Now, she’s perfectly positioned to take the reins at Bridechilla.

In her interview with Cleveland Magazine, Leah discusses everything from her dream podcast guests to the vibrant wedding industry in Cleveland. She even drops the next steps for Bridechilla and exciting collaborations with industry legends like Patrice Catan, signaling a new chapter for Evergreen’s wedding podcast genre.

Stress-Free Wedding Planning: Leah’s Core Message

One of the key takeaways from Leah’s Q&A is her dedication to helping couples enjoy a stress-free wedding planning process. Let’s face it, planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Leah’s down-to-earth approach ensures that couples stay focused on what really matters—celebrating their love.

In the interview, Leah stresses the importance of staying true to your vision:

“It can be really easy to have all the voices in your head of what everyone else wants and needs, or what they think is best for you. It’s also very easy to get caught up in Instagram and Pinterest trends. You have to get real with your significant other, family, friends, and vendors. Stay firm in your vision, knowing what you truly want and sticking with it.”

Her philosophy perfectly matches the core message of Bridechilla—that weddings should be about joy, connection, and celebrating love, not about succumbing to outside pressure or anxiety.

Interviewing Industry Leaders

Leah shares her dream podcast guests in the article, mentioning two of the top Hollywood wedding planners who have organized celebrity weddings galore. But she’s already interviewed big names in the industry, including:
