This week, I have the sincere pleasure of speaking alongside an amazing group of Richmond wedding professionals at The Special Event in Tampa.
Join us this Wednesday at 2pm in Room 13 for Time Crunch, managing the delicate balance between your clients wants and the professionals involved needs on the BIG day.
Brides and their entourages are being bombarded with more and more opportunities and products to dazzle their guests and make their events memorable. As a planner how do you balance it all? It’s our job to “make it happen” and we walk a very fine line, wanting to make our clients happy and leveraging/maintaining our relationships with the event professionals involved in the BIG day process. How do we manage the “stylized” photo shoots in between ceremony and reception, the film maker that needs his shots too, the make up artist and hair stylist that committed to 24 services, and don’t forget the “angry chef that has $37,000 worth of filet mignon turning to rubber if we aren’t seating guests promptly at the designated time.
A BIG thanks in advance to our fabulous team!
