Just because you're not having the "big" wedding doesn't mean that you won't have an incredible day. One thing that we've been hearing from our elopement clients over and over, is that things are working out better than they ever imagined, even though it's not what they originally planned - Which is sooo reassuring and comforting to know. Elopements really make you focus on what’s important in a wedding... The marriage! And for that reason, sweet old City Hall has never looked so good & fun gowns like this one from @daphnenewmandesign are the perfect opportunity to embrace it all 💛⁠

**BIG NEWS** Well my industry friends, it's a JUNG

**BIG NEWS** Well my industry friends, it's a JUNGLE out there right now isn't it? We've been getting a lot of requests for mentorship, and after many months of thought, we are thrilled & ready to launch JYW's new Virtual Group Mentorship Program... The JUNGLE!⁠
⁠
Here is the truth - When I first started my wedding planning business, I had no idea what I was doing. I mean, I thought I knew, but I had nowhere to go for actual information/data, and I had some experience but not enough to feel completely confident in taking on the huge clients & magazine-worthy weddings I dreamed of. There wasn’t a course that I took that made me fully ready to be both a business owner and a wedding planner. Also, there were no resources available where I could double check if I was doing things right or wrong anyways... (Not too many people were willing to open up their production schedules & business ops for me 10 years ago!) ⁠
⁠
If you're in the wedding industry, I am sure you've already realized that starting a sustainable business in weddings is not easy, or nearly as glamorous as people think. Plus, the landscape is constantly changing, especially in the face of COVID19. **Is there any other way to be successful in this industry outside of trial & error? **⁠
⁠
Yes, there is...Welcome to the JUNGLE, let me be your guide! That is why I started this group program & decided to open up my doors; To help you through the trying & difficult stages of launching and growing your business; To shed light on your process & systems to make you more successful and confident; To raise the bar for wedding planners & make help the industry be the best it can be.⁠
⁠
This is an adaptation of my previous private mentorship program, where you get all of the benefits of 1-on-1 mentoring, plus a community feel in a group setting which makes the opportunity of mentorship *extremely* cost effective - It's really a win-win, and it's going to be tons of fun. ⁠
⁠
THE FIRST 10 PEOPLE TO SIGN UP GET A SMOKIN DEAL at $89+gst per month, so don't delay!! Our first session will be on October 15th, aka ONE WEEK!!⁠
⁠
Let's do this thing! You in?! Check our link in bio for more details and to claim your spot!!

Fall weddings are next level special for some strange reason. Is it the coziness, the colours, the new outfits/layering opportunities... or the PSLs?? Maybe just a little bit of everything gets us all sorts of excited for this season 🍂⁠

From Julianne... "Is it just me, or do you find yourself going through your wedding album and finding your "new fave shot" every time? Honestly every time I look at my photos, there is a new one that stands out as my new favourite. It makes it very hard to pick which ones to choose from for putting up in our house!! For this reason, I am sooo incredibly grateful for @corrinawalkerphotography for putting together our wedding album. Holy smokes it would've been impossible for me to pick from over 1000 images the top 50 (?) to put into an album. Every shot is so meaningful, I think my "short list" was still 250 pics... Hahaha. Anyways, when a photographer offers to include an album in your package, dear god SAY YES."⁠
