Day-to-day operating brief

What Wedding Planner work looks like in practice

A hotel wedding planner converts a couple's plans into a detailed, deliverable event across ceremony, catering, rooms and suppliers.

  • Record client decisions, deposits and deadlines.
  • Coordinate suppliers and operational handovers.
  • Manage changes within delegated authority.
