You started your wedding planning biz because you had an aha moment.
(like when Sarah Blakely from Spanx realized pantyhose wasn't doing the job of shaping her lumps and bumps).
Your business exists today because you wanted more out of your life and career–and you were NOT about to settle for some windowless office job, lining someone else's pockets.
To say you've worked hard to get where you are is an understatement. You've put in the time–between online education, Googling #allthethings, building your website, and let's be honest–making it up as you go along....
You’re determined to get things right. You want to provide your couples with an incredible wedding planning experience, all while growing a recognized brand in the wedding industry.
And you’re eager to learn everything you can about planning weddings–immersing yourself in the world of weddings
(we won’t talk about your stack of magazines, Pinterest boards, and the 15 wedding industry podcasts you binge on the daily).
You didn’t come to play small. Nope.
But now that you’ve started up your wedding planning business, 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 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...
In fact, you might be stuck in a place right now where you're...
...and make enough money to pay back all you’ve invested in your wedding planning biz...
and always feeling like your one step away from making a mistake
No wait, you’ve gotta make this work so you can quit your full-time job. You *don’t* want to be stuck building someone else's dream.
Who seem to have it all figured out (or at least that’s how it looks on Instagram)
And holy shit–there’s SO MUCH TO LEARN!
wondering how you’re going to make real money being a wedding planner
And the question you ask yourself most often is…
What TF should I be doing next?!
I want you to know that you can build your wedding planning business, get experience fast, and become that in demand wedding planner who’s known for high-end, badass events.
All it takes is having the right people in your corner to guide you, answer your questions, and show you the way.
💓 "I am so glad I found you, Candice! I was feeling so overwhelmed before starting my business and your playbooks have given me the tools and knowledge I needed to make them work for me."
— Taliya Riesterer
I'M GONNA TAKE A WILD GUESS THAT YOU'VE HAD
"I thought it would be sooo much easier to grow my business. Why does it feel like I’m just making it up as I go along?"
“How TF do I get higher-end clients? I’m so sick of the DIY and wish I could work with clients who have bigger budgets.”
“How can I call myself a wedding designer when I have no idea what I’m doing? I’ve never done something like this before. Am I even capable of it? I feel like a total fraud!"
I feel like my process is ALL over the place and my clients are always one step ahead of me. I’m wondering if I can even do this - HELP!
"What does a design service *really* look like? What should I be including? How much should I be charging? HELP!"
"I’m so scared I’m going to make a mistake planning my couple’s dream wedding. Am I doing this right?"
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.
(so you can become that industry taste-maker everyone is dying to work with)
(we’re talking big budgets, tented weddings, stellar vendors, and perfected timelines)
(so they become your word-of-mouth champions and refer *more* luxe clients your way)
(like your timelines, checklists, workflows, proposals, contracts–you know, all the things)
(and deliver an incredible client experience)
(so that you can charge more money and scale your business)
The planning process is everything that you do to ensure the wedding runs smoothly; from building your vendor team, creating timelines, reviewing contracts, building to-do lists, managing logistics, and budgeting.
Inside The Planner’s Playbook, we tackle every facet of planning from A to Z.
Floor plans, linen swatches, mood boards, paper stories, lounge set-ups, tent designs–oh my! Designing a wedding is where you get to flex your creative muscle, curating a one-of-a-kind experience for your couples and their guests.
When you’re a member of The Planner’s Playbook, we teach you how to design your weddings with confidence.

I cannot tell you how much more "ELEVATED" my design process now feels compared to what it was.
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.
