With wedding planning firmly under my belt I am convinced I’m more than qualified for any one of the following careers (if I was looking to change careers, which I’m not):
Why do some couples hire people to do this stuff for them? I don’t get it. Boat loads of extra money? Either way, I’m enjoying learning all these new skills!
I'm a lady who enjoys photography, football, cooking, long drives with the windows down, This American Life, cereal, going to shows, scarves, kettlecorn, Gwen Stefani, yoga, my nephews, my cat Reggie, and my home: Boston.
ahhh – makes sense. I thought it had something to do with filling out a registry, which, although it would be an awesome career, I’m hoping is not a real job.
Because not everyone wants to stress about flowers and catering? I personally would just hire someone if I had the money who would consult with me on what I wanted but would take care of all the details. It’s great that you like it, but I don’t think you should assume it’s something for everyone.
Oh I totally agree. I’m just commenting on the cost of the actual items PLUS the cost of hiring someone to figure it all out for you? I mean, now that I have a realistic notion of the price, doing both of those things seems like it would cost an astronomical mount of money. But hey, if you have the money to spend, go nuts!
What exactly is a ‘major gifts officer’
A person who solicits large donations and grants for an organization, mostly non-profits.

Ha, not that I know of!
I know what you mean, but I suspect it’s useful in the situation where you’re throwing a majorly epic event and/or have more money than time.
Totally agreed. I have more time than money so it works in my situation.
