Contact Lovegevity. Their local WI consultant is Meredith Bieri. At mbieri@lovegevity.com. She owns the largest wedding planning firm in all of WI. Lovegevity just had a one-day wedding planning certification seminar in WI, too bad you missed it! she is looking for good consultants to bring into her business. You must be certified and go through an interview. She should be able to answer your questions. She also hosts a TV show on Sunday`s and is the WLUK wedding expert. Good luck!

I have a guide on how to become a wedding planner(Originally $30) that I would be willing to sell a copy of for $10

You do not have to be certified to become a wedding planner and the best training is actually "hands on".

I have been certified through The Wedding Planning Insitute and I am now working on my Associates Degree in wedding planning with them. The program was GREAT!! It was so much fun. I had taken other classes and was even a member of ABC, but they did NOTHING for me. That was a waste of my money. I wish I would have found WPI. I am actually making $$$$ as a wedding planner and living my dream! They also gave me bridal leads when I graduated, so it helped kick-off my new business. As a self proclaimed "expert" wedding planner student, I highly recommend www.weddingplanninginstitute.com. Best of luck to everyone!
