i am looking for any online wedding planner/coordinator courses that you can take for free. if you know of some please let me know. also i would like to know if anyone knows what the demand is for wedding planners/coordinators in omaha nebraska?? it would be very helpful. thanks so much

Hi… I know of no free wedding-planner courses, although I may be wrong.

It took me years to write the AAWP course, based on my years of research on the wedding industry and my experience. It also takes a lot of time to keep the course updated and current so that all the information is the best it can be for our members. We also support our members in their businesses, which is critical for their success. It’s a lot of time and effort, but it’s so worth it!

When looking for courses (free or not), ask these questions before proceeding:

1. Is the organization that offers the course an organization of wedding planners and wedding professionals? If not, don’t consider it.

2. Is wedding planning their only focus, or do they offer other, diverse courses? Wedding planning should be their ONLY focus.

3. Who wrote the course? This is critical. The person who is teaching you should be an expert with lots of experience in the field.

4. Does the course offer "Business Development Services"? If not, look elsewhere. What’s the point of learning how to plan a wedding, if you don’t know how to develop and grow your business?

5. Does the course offer ongoing, professional support once you complete it? You will need help as you start and grow your business. Having a professional organization to call or email for support, answers, and information may be the difference between success and failure.

Make sure the course you select offers you all it can in the way of education and the necessary tools you’ll need to build and grow a wedding planning business.

* P.S. To find the demand for wedding planners in Omaha, do an online search for planners. If lots of names come up, there’s lots of demand. On the other hand, Omaha is a big city. If there aren’t lots of names, it may be a good market to break into! Good luck!

I would plan a few weddings free of charge to start with, and then build up a reputation and experience to charge. What do you think? The economy is making it hard to get into this field with an already established company.

Work with someone that u know who is getting married, u can also tag along with wedding photographer to get an idea of the wedding culture… I’m a wedding photographer that works with a company, and we had a girl dut a deal with us and we let her tag along until she got a taste of the whole wedding environment, it is different… But it worked out for her…

Looking for a walkie talkie that is hands free for my staff to use. Preferably an earpiece

Pretty much any of the walkies that you find at stores can accept an earpiece mic:

I want something that will be mailed to me, not that I print off. I wasn’t sure if there even was such a possible thing. Hence asking the question here.

Sometimes when you set up your registry the store will have freebies, including a planner.

For my planner I just used a calender/notebook combo I bought at Staples, I think it was like $6. There was a section with a calendar (and weekly pages too), a section for phone numbers, 3 blank sections, and 2 pockets. I practically slept with it.

I recently got engaged and I am starting to plan my engagement party. I’ve been looking at Wedding planning books and such but I would prefer to make my own. I’ve been googling "free wedding planner templates" and stuff like that but I haven’t really found anything worth using. Any ideas?

Thanks, MJ
