Renee Aaron Events, LLC spoke with two of Detroit’s emerging wedding planners, Brandi Robinson-Peart of B. Posh Events and Cystal Marie of C-MY Style Events. When planning a wedding, couples tend to choose a time of the year where they feel would fit their entire theme. Some couple choose winter, because they’ve could have had a vision of a winter wonderland. Another couple may want an all flowers in bloom wedding.
For a wedding planner, this may cause to have multiple weddings in the same month. For these two women, they seem to handle the calendars very well. Crystal Marie had this to say, “2013 has been a great year for C-MY Style”. She also stated that December and January are slower months. During those time, an actual wedding may not take place, however the planning process continues.
As for Brandi of B. Posh, she had this to say about her busiest months, “Typically, with my clientele I am busier May-October. My slowest months are November thru February”. Brandi also had this to say about how often she meets with her clients leading up to their event, “I work weekly for my brides researching vendors, helping plan out decor, keeping them within budget and on a planning timeline”.
“Coordination services, full service wedding planning, styling or decor…everyone is different,” says Crystal Marie when speaking of what actually intels in the planning process.
Both women are sought out for their services early in advance. Two weddings hired Crystal Marie two years out. For Brandi she has been hired for a wedding next year. Planning ahead is not a numbers game for just couples but most importantly for the wedding planner.
