ReplyDeletedestination wedding organizer
I am a junior in high school, it's kinda a risk thinking about being one for the rest of my life, since the economy is terrible, and weddings ain't that big of a deal, and you would probably have to be amazing to work with celebrities. And most people want to plan their own weddings. But it's something I have always dreamed about. I am a very organized person, and I love to be creative! I was wondering what classes I should take next year to help, and also what kind of college do I go to? For any wedding planners out there: Do you think it is a good idea in this kind of economy? what's the best and worst part about your job?
