WEDology Experience - Summer 2011!!!

This post will not be for the budget-chic bride today, but for those men and woman who truly want to enter the arena of wedding planning. Outside of a solid wedding planning and event business for over 11 years, I pride myself on being an educator for the last 4 of those years here in the Chicagoland area. My passion stems from the desire to want those entering into this field to do it properly, fairly and drama-free where possible. Hence the creation of the WEDology Experience!!!


As you know, my bridal planner was launched this past March...the WEDology Notebook: For the Budget-Chic Bride, and although it's a GREAT purchase for the bride, I've had tons of planners pick up a copy as well. Many portions of the Notebook can be formulated into business modules for the aspiring planner. With that said, I've created a comprehensive 6-hour training seminar to give you some foundational elements to begin your business.

The topics include:

• The Role of a Wedding Planner - Defining your position to the bridal client


• Turning Your Passion into a Business - What business modules need to be in place to become successful


• The Initial Consultation - How to get the inquiring client to book your services


• Contracts and Packages - Real talk about a planner contract, vendor contracts and how to price your services


• Who's Your Bridal Client - Defining your market and ideal client


• Marketing Your Business - Effective marketing tools as well as the importance of public relations


• Social Media and Blogging - There's a science to learning this "free" marketing platform


• Expanding Your Business - Bringing in more dollars outside of your planning services

If you are serious in wanting to learn about the business, I invite you to attend the seminar. I'm sure you will not be disappointed. The early-bride special ends July 15th...so don't miss out (payment plans available).


Until next time...WEDologize!
