If you have looked for any Wedding Planner course, you will have realised that this profession may seem beautiful, and so it is, but it also has great moments of difficulty and tension that you have to face.
For this reason, faced with the infinite number of situations that a Wedding Planner will experience, it is necessary for her to put her personal skills to work so that the outcome of the wedding is as successful as possible.
And that’s why we are here, to tell you each and every one of the skills that you should take into account when it comes to being a Wedding Planner or training for it.
Let’s get started!
Management skills
Yes, one of the most important skills is the ability to manage, because when organising a wedding it is necessary to perfectly coordinate all the suppliers and guests that are part of the wedding. Photographer, caterer, venue, entertainment, videographer?
Negotiation skills
This is essential, because every wedding and every couple has a different budget. Therefore, you always need to be able to stick to the budget by negotiating in the best way with all suppliers to get the best price.
Multitasking skills
Time management, efficient resource management and everything involved in logistics is dynamic, not static. On many occasions, you will be dealing with calls, emails, finding the best prices and balancing budgets – all at the same time!
Organisational skills and control skills
Coordinating an event requires discipline, so as well as being organised and tidy, you as a wedding planner must be in control and be aware of deadlines and quality standards. If you have well-defined logistics and time management processes, the success of the wedding is assured.
Creative and improvisational skills
This quality is not only about design and aesthetics. A professional wedding planner also applies it to solving setbacks and overlooking them is not a solution. Therefore, you must also have a flexible mind and a great ability to react so as not to get stuck in case circumstances change unexpectedly.
Anticipation and reaction skills
Yes, you will need to be able to identify future needs and anticipate unforeseen events, this will save you more than just a little bit of grief. Don’t wait for things to happen before making decisions.
Empathy and commitment skills
The ability to listen, coupled with empathy and a great passion for the world of weddings is what allows a Wedding Planner to understand your concept, style it to suit you and support you in making the most of it. With a lot of patience, you must listen a lot to the bride and groom before suggesting ideas…
Communication and business skills
It is just as important to come up with a great project as it is to know how to transmit it to both clients and suppliers. Having communication and commercial skills will facilitate the management of the event and the communication and negotiation between all those involved in it.
And a few more skills!
If you want to learn all the skills to become a Wedding Planner and train for it, taking a Wedding Planner course is what you need to dedicate yourself to what you have always dreamed of.

You will learn how to organise weddings, and much more
In Perfect Venue’s Wedding Planner course you will not only learn how to organise an ordinary wedding, but you will also learn all about organising destination weddings.
Nowadays there are many brides and grooms who come from abroad and organising a wedding for them is not the same, because they don’t know the space, the language or all the regions of the country, so the way of organising their wedding is different.
In addition, you will also know how to deal with all kinds of situations and unforeseen events, how to advise the bride and groom, how to deal with your suppliers, etc.
You will know how to create your own Wedding Planner business
One of the most relevant things in this Wedding Planner course is that in addition to learning how to organise a wedding to perfection, we also teach you how to create your own business.
Nowadays there are many courses that supposedly teach you how to organise a wedding, but we go much further and we also teach you how to create your own Wedding Planner business so that you can make a living from what you love the most. It is extremely important that you know how to do it!
That’s why we also teach you how to create your agency, all the communication strategy you should follow, how to effectively use social networks, SEO and SEM positioning, how to work with digital media, how to relate to suppliers (you will meet the best in Spain), what are the basics of a Wedding Planner company, how to find the best spaces, how to get inspired, how to carry out the shootings… In short, everything you need to make your business a success.
We would like to highlight that in this Wedding Planner course we also carry out a practical part so that you can participate in a bridal shooting workshop and thus finish your Wedding Planner course with your own portfolio.
