SO YOU WANT TO BECOME A WEDDING PLANNER … Learn the Best FROM the Best!

Before we get too far into this, please understand that being a wedding planner is not for the faint of heart!  It requires stamina, good health, high energy, and the ability to multi-task, all the while wearing pretty clothes and uncomfortable shoes!

In 2008 Wonderful Weddings launched its Apprentice Program called “Suddenly I See.”  Since that time many candidates have entered the program and one of them is now a permanent member of our staff.  We are proud of the program and want others to know more about it!

The program is bundled into three parts:

1.  Learning through hands-on experience that you gain from working all the aspects of the two weddings from our schedule that you select.  You will of course work at the rehearsal, ceremony and reception; but you will also attend various meetings related to the weddings prior to the wedding day; and you will work in the office the week of the wedding to assist our office manager in creating the important documents that will be distributed at the rehearsal.  You will also sit in on prospective client appointments so you can experience what it is like to sell yourself and close the sale.

2.  You will receive an Apprentice Manual written by Wonderful Weddings’ founder Susie Weiss.  This manual outlines in detail the steps to take to launch your own wedding planning company.

3. You will be provided many of the back-of-the-house, in-house and public forms that are utilized in our work for weddings as part of the program and you will be given the opportunity to purchase others.
