Event Details

For the last couple of years I have been asked to create a class for aspiring wedding planners.  I tried to figure out how to fit it all in one day, but it just can't be done.  So I have created 9 different sessions each with a specific focus and more than enough time to give you the details that you'll need.

Where is this information coming from? A mixture of some of the classes that I have attended and taught previously along with my own 9 years of experience.  I will share with each attendee my own information along with information on mistakes that I have made and how I corrected them to still be in business today.

Who am I?  My name is Veronica Foster and I own Behind The Scenes Inc.  I have been acting as the North Carolina State Coordinator for the Association of Bridal Consultants since June 2006, I am also the Treasurer for Wish Upon A Wedding - North Carolina.  To read my bio please visit the Behind The Scenes Inc website.

This is for registration of all 9 classes.  If you click on the title of each class you can register if you want to take different classes individually. The links also contain detailed information on each available class.
