I couldn't deal with that every single day of my life. I admire those that can.

I’ve thought about it a lot, since I think I also have the skills needed to be successful. Plus, planning weddings would be a great opportunity for someone like me who loves to organize and focus on details, but also loves to be creative, which is something I somewhat lack in my current job. I’ve looked at training programs and am definitely keeping it on my radar for the future.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13226523010102160874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2783214501166327058.post-8066474235567132352010-02-08T06:38:20.106-08:002010-02-08T06:38:20.106-08:00Hmmm, I've thought about it, but it would be h...Hmmm, I've thought about it, but it would be hard to walk away from my law degree after all the time/money/effort I put into it. Once my friend is done with her MBA program, we have discussed party planning on the side. Don't know if I'd ever go full-time with it, though. And I might avoid planning other peoples' weddings for the reasons you stated.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04724896577355920828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2783214501166327058.post-60644703066796858882010-02-08T06:06:15.857-08:002010-02-08T06:06:15.857-08:00Wedding planning is so much fun.

You really would be wonderful at planning.<br /><br />While I'm currently unemployed, my goal for my career is to get into event planning. Not necessarily wedding planning, although if I get a job at a hotel there would be an element of wedding coordinating, I'm sure. I got interested in event planning a few years ago during my senior year of college. After I volunteered at my first event, I was hooked! Planning my wedding has only solidified my desire to plan events for a living.Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204887268153833182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2783214501166327058.post-7361423594879775762010-02-08T05:28:06.797-08:002010-02-08T05:28:06.797-08:00Honestly, I contemplated taking some classes and b...Honestly, I contemplated taking some classes and becoming certified to be a wedding planner, but I don't think I could put up with the bridezillas!
