STARTING OUT EARLY!

Hello everyone....I am 16 years old and I have been seriously interested in becomming a wedding planner for a couple years now. I am still in high school so I am trying to get some little things worked out now....such as what kind of classes and experience will I probably need for this career choice. I am also curious to whether I will need to attend college or not. If you or someone you know could give me some information about what I can do or who I could talk to to help me pursue my career choice it would be greatly appiciated. I am also intersted in job shadowing but if there is any information you could give me please e-mail me! Thank you very much!
