How can I train to be a Wedding Planner in London?

Dowry is a very common wedding tradition in many parts of Africa. Other tribes do not consider the marriage final on the wedding day.

Wedding Traditions In Other Cultures

Welcome to the world of wedding planning and organising events, two of the most envied jobs in Britain. In London, the average wedding costs have increased to between £20- £25,000; with Londoners having increasingly busy lifestyles coupled with more disposable income- and around 240,000 weddings a year happening in the UK- London is a great place to start a wedding planner business.

The average salary of a wedding planner ranges from £16,000 to a whopping £70,000. Some training schools offer the option to get hands on work experience by organising real weddings.

To continue your success, consider writing about London wedding issues for weddings such as great London venues, the best London bridal wear, getting married on a budget, or catering for a London-based newspaper or website; blog about your experiences in order to create links with a London client base. You will certainly want to attend events such as the National Wedding Show and the London Wedding Show in order to network.
