What makes a wedding planner thrive?

Fresh from the wedding planner diary

My vegan bride Marisa surprised me with a thank you gift bag after her wedding on Friday. As their happy planner I thought about how much I love my business. Other than sweet surprises but what else does a wedding planner love about the different parts of a profession, listed as one of the top stressful jobs?

We all enjoy different things about weddings.

For me it’s

  1. meeting new couples
  2. exploring their theme, the unique quality of what makes a couple so perfect for each other
  3. assisting to give life to their ideas and manifest it in the decor and type of event
  4. creating unusual center pieces and settings
  5. integrating lots of unique pieces from grand ma’s tea pots and lace to up-cycled signage and art
  6. going on thrift and antic store hunts for the right decor from silver containers or fairy tale figurines
  7. to set and direct day of stage like one of the best stage producers in Hollywood
  8. making sure the process is fun for all
  9. and yeah, we reduced trash and the impact on the environment

And then after the wedding we fly like a butterfly on the love we receive. Marisa was so insightful and sweet to tend to my preferences; the gifts were organic and cruelty free. Brad and Marisa’s card really is the best reward and makes a planner thrive.

 

Marisa's thank you

The actual effort to buy a card, and an eco friendly one in this case, to write a note and mail it is so endearingly retro sweet.
