Essentially this is a career for the versatile. Aspiring wedding planners should be hard working, extrovert, flexible and customer service-oriented with a meticulous eye for detail. A study of the history, geography and rituals of major religions and linguistic communities would certainly help because weddings can be elaborate affairs, lasting from two days to a fortnight, depending upon the customs of castes, communities and religions.
The best way to start is to apprentice with wedding planners, coordinators, bridal consultants, event managers, florists, caterers or a hotel. With some rudimentary experience, it is easier to set out on your own.
Career prospects are good specially because the number of wealthy NRIs are staging weddings in India. They are ready, willing and able to hire/wedding planners to organize the big event according to their customized requirements. This is an untapped industry which is gradually growing and the possibilities of keeping the cash registers ringing are great.
