If you are interested in launching a career in an industry that is passionate and creative then we would love to help you. The UKAWP offer face to face training and since 2004 have trained hundreds of successful wedding planners.

Both Bernadette and Sandy have been wedding planners for over 14 years so know what it is like to start a business; we understand the struggle of standing out in a competitive market. We have seen many changes over the years and have naturally progressed our businesses during this time.

As industry spokeswomen we not only successfully train and mentor wedding planners, we also are judges for The Wedding Industry Awards, present at the National Wedding Shows and run workshops for other wedding industry groups.

    It is an amazing job. We feel happy when we know that we have helped others to make their day memorable and exciting more than they had expected. But the job also comes with its own troubles. A wedding planner needs to have people skills to get the job done successfully.
