Today I had lunch with an old friend and fellow bride-to-be and we swapped stories about just how much had to be done before the actual day itself. It was nice to be able to chat about it and compare deals with someone else who was also going through the same thing.

More excitingly though, the wedding planner course I attended last night completely met my expectations and taught me so much that I didn't even know that I didn't know. I'm so excited to be doing this and learning about a whole new industry which I'll eventually jump into.

Aside from NG, I hadn't really told anyone that I was doing this because I was afraid that I would be laughed at or told that I was just being fruity. But it has surprised me that the few people that I have told, including my dad who I was most afraid to tell as he'd always encouraged me to work towards a good profession like law, have been incredibly surportive. I figure I can start this off as a side business, helping out friends and then hopefully establishing a reputation by word of mouth as I build my portfolio.

So today, I also registered my business and told my bride to be friend over lunch about this new venture I was taking. And she asked me whether I would help her out with her wedding (as its after mine) and call it my first project. I was thrilled and it was exciting to get my first client.
