Wedding Planner

 
Background
Wedding planners organize and coordinate all the details of weddings, from choosing venues and catering to managing timelines and budgets. They work with couples to understand their vision and then handle the practical side of making it happen, including booking suppliers, managing contracts, and solving problems on the day itself. It's a role that combines creativity, organization, and people skills.
