So why are you still booking budget clients who drain your energy—and saying yes to weddings that don’t reflect your style or skill?
It’s not your talent that’s holding you back.
It’s the lack of a real strategy... the kind that positions you as the planner, not just another option.
Because you started this business with a fire in your gut and a vision in your head. You didn’t wait for permission. You didn’t need someone to tell you you were ready.
You just knew, deep down, that you had the eye, the instinct, and the drive to do something extraordinary.
You dreamed of working with clients who trusted your vision. You imagined designing events that made people pause and say, “Wait... who planned this?” You saw yourself leading, creating, growing—not just booking whatever came your way, but curating a business that felt undeniably yours.
But talent alone isn’t what builds an in-demand brand.
Strategy does.
Positioning does.
Owning your authority, showing up like a leader, and building systems that support your genius... that’s what changes everything.
And that’s exactly what The Planner’s Playbook was built to help you do.
You didn’t come to play small. Nope.
You want to build something bigger—a thriving, six-figure planning business that supports your lifestyle, not the other way around.
But now that you’ve started booking clients, you’ve got sooooo many questions (it can feel SO overwhelming trying to figure out what’s the right way to plan high-end, magazine-worthy weddings and make good money doing it).
And every new client you book brings up new questions and challenges—making you wonder if you’re really cut out for this whole wedding planning thing...
You might be stuck in a place right now where you're...
But right now, it feels like you’re barely covering expenses—let alone paying yourself what you’re worth.
They don’t reflect your creativity, your taste, or the kind of work you actually want to be known for.
The right clients aren’t finding you, and the ones who do? They’re asking for discounts, not in depth design proposals that knock their socks off.
You’ve collected advice... but not a strategy. And now everything feels disconnected.
You know you’re talented—but you’re stuck watching less experienced people pass you by.
Because this business was supposed to give you freedom—not make you question your worth.
And the question you ask yourself most often is…
If I'm so good at this, why does it feel so hard to stand out?
I want you to know—you can build an in-demand, iconic brand that attracts higher-value clients who trust your vision and happily pay your rates.
Not by working 24/7 or chasing every trend, but by getting clear on your positioning, sharpening your message, and showing up like the creative leader you are. You don’t need more hacks or hustle... you need a strategy that actually reflects the level of work you're capable of. With the right guidance, tools, and support, you can stop second-guessing and start building a brand that stands out, books itself, and finally puts you in the room you were meant to lead.

you might be wondering...
Before selling my company in 2019 (to focus full-time on mentoring visionary wedding pros like you), my team and I worked with hundreds of clients all over the world, from New York City to Fiji, Vermont to Costa Rica, celebrating moments that mattered in our clients' lives.
I started Jubilee Events with NO experience, NO contacts, and no real training or support. Even so, I signed high-end clients from the very start of my business and produced events in excess of $1,000,000.
I went on to write and publish two books, get featured in countless publications, and build a team that supported my business — while I moved to Barbados and married the man of my dreams.
I've been in the trenches, where you've been. I've bustled hundreds of dresses, laid down linens, kept the crazy under control, and busted my ass to plan events for my clients (and build a powerhouse business I was proud of).
Now, I’m committed to helping wedding planners, like you, gather all the tools you need–with all the shortcuts I wish I had when I started.
I've been through every planning scenario imaginable. And throughout my career, I've learned how to master the art of planning high-end, magazine worthy weddings.
From tented weddings at private estates to destination events on tropical islands, I've helped hundreds of couples plan extraordinary events. And now I’m teaching you the exact formula I used throughout my career to plan high-end weddings like a pro.
I created The Planner’s Playbook to be the go-to resource I wish I had when building my brand. Inside, you’ll find the tools, training, and support to help you stand out, show up with confidence, and attract premium clients who respect your work—and your rates.
When you join The Planner’s Playbook, you get a new member added to your team: me! 💁🏼♀️ Imagine what it would be like to have a 12-year veteran in your back pocket, helping plan your weddings in real time.
Members of The Planner’s Playbook enjoy monthly live coaching sessions where all your burning questions get answered. Submit your questions in advance, or join me and your fellow Playbookers on a live call–and get priceless feedback and advice.
Starting and running your wedding planning business can feel overwhelming–and isolating. Our fiercely supportive community of planners and experts are just one click away inside our private group. As a Playbooker, you are encouraged and supported by YOUR fellow planners, so you can receive support 24/7.
So, the next time you have a burning question (like HOW DO I DO THIS?!), all you need to do is ask your fellow Playbookers and our community experts for their advice.
I love to invite my smart friends and colleagues into The Planner's Playbook to talk shop.

This signature course takes everything I’ve learned from planning million-dollar events and turns it into a clear, repeatable system you can use to design elevated, high-end weddings with confidence.
You’ll master key design principles, learn how to build cohesive color stories, tie together thoughtful details, and create a guest experience that feels luxurious—regardless of budget. From concept to presentation, this is your blueprint to designing like a pro and building a portfolio that books.
Stay ahead of the trends—so your work never feels outdated or overdone.
Each month, you’ll get a curated breakdown of what’s rising, what’s tired, and how to apply design trends in a way that feels fresh, elevated, and totally your brand. From color palettes to styling details, you'll always know what's next—before your clients ask for it.

I cannot tell you how much more "ELEVATED" my design process now feels compared to what it was. ALSO I have to say, the first time I asked a rental company about a discount after 4 years of working with them and realizing I left a TON of money on the table was so eye-opening. And for that... Candice, I am very grateful to have you in my life.

When I was just starting out... I wish I had a resource like The Planner’s Playbook to guide me through all the questions that popped up. I could have saved A LOT of time and money learning the wedding planning ropes.
I know how hard you’ve worked to get to where you are today–but I don’t want you to keep working at this pace without having a support system to help you.
Your business deserves to thrive and grow–in whatever direction you want it to.
If you’re *still* reading this, I know you’re feeling called to make some changes in your business (you’re our risk-taker, afterall). Whenever I’m thinking about making a change or an investment in my business, I ask myself - what would life be like for me in one, three, or even six months from now if I decided to make a change?
I want to ask that same question of you.
Just know that you’ve *got* this, and I’m here to support you in growing a profitable wedding planning business with purpose.
I see you out there busting your butt to build and grow your wedding planning business. In fact, I consider you to be the ultimate risk-taker…
The kind of risks YOU take don't come easy. They require confidence, grit, and hard work. All of which, btw, you've got.
Most people don't get as far as you've gotten. How's that? Because most people don't take the risk of starting their own business.
And that's why you're the ultimate risk-taker. There's nothing you can't learn, figure out, or do. Your business is living proof of that.
