Certified Wedding Specialist

I've finally done with my Wedding Planner Course and I am now a Certified Wedding Specialist. =)


As you all know, I am an Audit Associate and I have been in this job for 2 years. People would think, 2 years is just nothing. Some people could work like 20 - 30 year in this field. But I seriously don't like being an auditor. I feel stressful, so hectic, and most importantly, UNHAPPY. "Who feels happy being an auditor?" Someone asked me this question. Well, NOBODY feels happy. But they continue doing it. And I really want to be the one who finds something else to do that will make me really happy.

I have never been happier in my life, until I joined this course. I asked my mum for help to attend this course, as I did not have enough savings. I've talk to B about it and he was really supportive of me chasing my dream.

The class was actually not very convenient for me to go to as it was very far from my home. But still, I make it a point to not skip any of the classes. Even though there were lots of assignments, projects and presentations, I enjoyed it pretty much.

So, the question is, why do I want to be a Wedding Planner?
Because, I LOVE Weddings. I always feel emotional and very happy when I am attending someone's wedding. I want to be able to help a bride in creating their dream and making it a reality for that special day. And to me, it's that satisfaction, when you see how happy they are on their wedding day. I want that satisfaction.

From this class, I have met many good experts in this industry. Learn about Bridal Fashion, Photography, and Wine tasting. Even learn on the ways to make a bridal bouquet for emergencies. Other than that, the one with the most hands on practical session, was to create our own centerpieces from something that you won't even imagine that it could be something nice for a wedding. I really had fun for every of the practical sessions. And the greatest thing of all, is meeting all the people who shares the same passion as me and together we had learn of ways to make our dreams come true.

I really hope that in near future, I would be able to find ways in going into this industry. Hopefully people I love would understand how i feel about being a wedding planner, and let me make my dream come true.
