The Legalese of Wedding Planning: What You Need To Know To Protect Yourself
A wedding is a ceremony planned to formally execute (and celebrate) a legally binding marriage contract between two parties. While it may not be the sexiest or most romantic way to describe it, but at the crux of it all, a marriage is a legal contract and a wedding is the ritual that marks this life altering change.
Even though weddings are incredible and magical and often described as the best day of someone’s life, there is just no escaping the fact that a wedding is accompanied by several legal considerations, both in your union, and in the planning of the event itself.
But the legal stuff can be really overwhelming. So we have an amazing guest with us to help understand it all. Kunbi Odubogun is a business attorney, speaker, and digital media expert with over 12 years experience in the creative and legal industries.
She is the founder of two online businesses — Perfete, a digital media platform focused on highlighting the celebratory moments of life, and Legally Set, an e-commerce store offering legally sound, attorney-drafted contract templates for entrepreneurs, event professionals, and creative business owners. She’s also one-half of the Legal Firm, Oduberg.
