Never thought there are majors and schools offering this type of courses. But I am glad that they exist and i hope they have lots of good students. I don’t usually think that a diploma in your hand makes you a professional, as you said, this comes with the experience, but I’m still glad to see there is a background that could be acquired. In this way you might feel more and more confident when hiring a wedding planner. Well, what can I say? Since I spend so much time reading about weddings and giving my friends ideas and advice regarding their weddings I might try getting a certificate as well. You never know when it’s needed it, right?
