Hiring a team is SO important and will be a crucial part of your business thriving! It is time to let go of all the excuses of why you can't hire someone to help you. I want you to realize that hiring someone will give you time to do the things you love in your business; it will allow you to hand off tasks that you don't enjoy to someone who loves to do them.
I will let you in on a secret… almost all entrepreneurs who are going from solo entrepreneurs to businesses with employees or subcontractors struggle at first with hiring someone to help them. There's a little mental gymnastics we have to move through before you'll believe what I believe: that hiring someone to help you in your business won't cost you in the long run, it will only benefit you.

I’m SO excited to announce (and celebrate with you!) that the doors to The Planner’s Playbook are officially OPEN! 🎊
Over the last three years, 400+ wedding planners have joined this program to scale their businesses, book dream clients, and stop spinning their wheels. And every single month, my team and I have shown up to deliver:
✅ Frameworks that take the guesswork out of running a profitable business
✅ Shortcuts & workflows that help you work smarter, not harder
✅ Strategies that move the needle—because you don’t have time for fluff
✨ But this round? It’s extra special. ✨
… because some things have changed - in GOOD ways. Let me explain…
Because The Planner’s Playbook has evolved into a complete, step-by-step framework for scaling your wedding planning business to six figures—no more guessing, no more “figuring it out as you go.” You get the exact roadmap to:
💰 Raise your prices with confidence (and have clients say YES without hesitation)
💰 Book fewer, better weddings and stop overworking for scraps
💰 Streamline your process so your business actually supports your life (not the other way around!)
I created this program because I’ve been where you are.
When I was a wedding planner, things didn’t always come easily.
There were days where I struggled. Clients who I disappointed. Decisions I made that turned out to be big fat mistakes.
I believe you should never have to do business alone, which is why I created this special program.
🚨 Doors to The Planner’s Playbook are open—but not for long! Join today, and let’s get to work on building the business you KNOW you’re capable of.

Do you want to know how to draw people to you? 👀
This week on the podcast, I’m sitting down with Akeshi Akinseye, and we’re diving into how she’s built a wedding empire (as CEO of @keshevents, two-time published author, and building a lifestyle platform through @taoclifestyle)
But here’s the part you really need to hear…It wasn’t just about getting better at weddings. It was about building a personal brand so strong that people weren’t just drawn to her work… they were drawn to HER.
This has ultimately led her to being featured in incredible publications like People, Brides, Elle Décor, Inside Weddings, Muna Luchi, Conde Nast Traveler, and so many more!
If you’ve ever wondered how to elevate your brand (so you’re not just another vendor, but the one people seek out), you’re going to love this new installment of our Behind The Brand series, where I’m interviewing iconic wedding brands and rising stars, to figure out the magic behind their success.

You’re just ONE strategy away from a six-figure wedding business.
I just wrapped up our first $100K Playbook masterclass this week - and in this live video, I wanted to share the #1 thing wedding planners need to shift if they want to finally hit $100K+ in their business—without working more, booking every inquiry, or waiting years to ‘earn’ it.
Because here’s the truth:
💡 It’s not about working harder. (If it was, you’d already be there.)
💡 It’s not about booking more weddings. (More weddings ≠ more money when you’re undercharging.)
💡 It’s not just “raising your prices.” (It’s about structuring your services to actually be profitable.)
If you’re ready for the full breakdown, my free masterclass is happening again soon. Drop “TRAINING” in the comments, and I’ll DM you the link!

Wedding planners… it’s time to have some AUDACITY.
You know who gets it when it comes to charging their worth? The band.
They arrive at 6 PM, play for 4 hours, eat their vendor meal, and leave with a $20K+ check.
And you know what? They should.
They’ve mastered their craft. They create an experience. They set a rate that reflects their value, and clients pay it.
Meanwhile, wedding planners (ahem, YOU) are out here working for months managing vendors, problem-solving, fielding emails at midnight…
If you’ve been waiting for permission to charge like the expert you are, this is it.
💡 Charge for the transformation, not just the hours.
💡 Position yourself like a premium service, not an on-call assistant.
💡 Have the AUDACITY to ask for more, because your clients will pay it.
Inside my free masterclass, I’m breaking down exactly how wedding planners finally start making six figures without overworking, undercharging, or letting the band out-earn them ever again.
