Cons
Dealing with Conflict
Wedding Planners occasionally need to resolve conflicts and incidents. For example, the bride may change her mind or argue about a detail of the wedding at the last minute. The Wedding Planner then needs to calm the situation and find a solution. They also need to deal with unexpected issues, such as the DJ running late or the caterer bringing the wrong food.
Handling the Stress of a Wedding
