A New Business in the Making...

Since planning my wedding I think I have tapped into somthing that I can truly say that I LOVE!! I don't feel like its a hassell to me, now don't get me wrong it comes with its own frustrations and stress but overall I have found that I have enjoyed it more that I ever imagined. So guess what? I decided to become a Certified Wedding Consultant!! Yay!!! I have been enrolled in classes now for about 4 months because if I am going to do this I want to do it right. So on top of planning the wedding of my dreams {I know thats corny but its true} I am also taking online classes. I feel like I was given a talent that I have been ignoring and I feel like its my duty to use this talent and not let it go to waste.

So after my wedding I will start with just part-time planning and see where it takes me. I am beyond excited and can't wait to jump in with both feet! More information to come later but I just thought I would share and get your thought....do you think I have what it takes to be a planner? Have I inspired any of you {my readers} in any way? I would love feedback!

  16. Hello! I wish you patience and success with your business. My advice to you is that to do it right you MUST put time and money into building your brand (i.e. nice website, blog (u have this convered), and promotional items).

    Good Luck!
    Cheers,
    OC
