What course and year did you study at The Wedding Academy? Advanced Certificate in Wedding Planning, Styling & Business, enrolled in 2022.
What was your highlights studying with The Wedding Academy? My highlight of studying at The Wedding Academy was completing my business plan – it was such a labour of love! It was fantastic being able to take a pause when needed to think more deeply about the direction I wanted my business to take, as opposed to just rushing through to meet a strict deadline. I loved knowing that the support of the student community and my local tutor was just a click away should I have needed any help.
