What Our Students Say…

The Wedding Academy is hands down the WAY TO GO. This community has.it. all. After doing my research on what investment was best to start my career path in the wedding industry, I still, a year later, know for a fact, I made the best decision

– Betsy Renehan
Fort Worth, Texas
I found the Wedding Academy after months of yearning to be a part of the wedding industry but not sure how to do it. Within a year, I’ve gone from being lost & directionless to owning my own business & living my dream; with a skillset behind me that I couldn’t have obtained without the Academy.

– Lauren George
Palmerston North, New Zealand
The course offers in-depth information and instruction on everything you need. I was in the Launchpad with additional live training, which I found very valuable. Kylie and the other mentors are also readily available for tips and advice.

– Jolanda Gelissen

Even though I have graduated in 2019, the Academy has been a constant active support in my professional life. There are always advanced Marketing courses to do, Kylie is always there to guide us and really you are part of a global family.

The Wedding Styling Lab Modules

8 live sessions plus lifetime access to all course materials

Not only will you have access to our entire Wedding Styling Certification Course but you’ll also join Martha for 8 live training sessions that give you a more practical look at implementing your designs. And remember, everything is recorded if life gets in the way and you can’t make it live for whatever reason. PLUS you have lifetime access to everything.

Here’s the breakdown of the live training…

MODULE 1: The Power of Great Design & Using Colour

A well thought out and inspired design can transform a wedding from ordinary to extraordinary.

Many new wedding planners are intimidated with the concept of wedding design. Often feeling like they don’t have enough creativity and prior experience to pull off the kind of weddings you see featured on blogs and in magazines.

If this resonates with you then you’re in the right place. In this module we’ll help you create a signature wedding design process that will inspire and excite your clients.

MODULE 2: Finding Inspiration For Your Wedding Designs

Discovering and understanding where you find inspiration is essential to the early stages of your design process.

Remember your couple will be your biggest source of inspiration. Once you know more about them, their story, their tastes, their loves and hates, designing their wedding will be so much easier.

You need to get to know your clients and gather information about their vision that you can keep referring back to throughout the design phase. This is where a client consultation comes in. In this module we’ll be covering how and where to gather inspiration for your wedding design.

MODULE 3: Creating Beautiful Moodboards

The best way to visually communicate the wedding theme and colours is to create a wedding design vision board, otherwise known as a moodboard.

Pinterest is a great place for this. It’s essentially an image archive for wedding and design ideas with an easy to use search function.

Variety of imagery is essential to a great moodboard. You don’t want 5 images of a bride in a wedding dress. And that’s what this module is all about, helping you to understand how to design a cohesive mood board that reflects your couple’s style whilst communicating your ideas to them.

MODULE 4: Wedding Lookbooks and How to Use Them

A wedding lookbook or design & styling proposal expands on your main design moodboard with further images, sketches, mockups, and descriptions of how the design will be implemented across the entire wedding.

A wedding lookbook could be just a series of moodboards for each wedding supplier category such as flowers, cake and stationery.

In this module we’re going to look at how you can build on the moodboard to break down the design into more detail for your couples.

MODULE 5: Selecting the Right Supplier Team

An amazing wedding design will risk falling a bit flat without the right team of wedding suppliers.

You want to present your clients with suppliers recommendations that are not only trustworthy and professional but also with the right style to execute your design.

For example, you probably wouldn’t want to recommend a florist who specialises in Rustic Boho wedding flowers for a classic and elegant wedding design. You’d want to recommend a florist whose signature style matches the design vision.

In this module we’re going to explore how you can select the right suppliers to bring your wedding design to life.

MODULE 6: Working With Venues

Every venue tells a story and you want the venues your couples choose to tell the right story.

The venue dictates so much when it comes to the design of a wedding PLUS you have to make sure the design you’ve visualised can be produced easily and within whatever restrictions you’re faced with.

Doing a full site visit prior to finalising any design is crucial to your success.

In this module we’ll be looking at the different types of venues you’re likely to work in and how you make sure your design flows naturally within the space you have.

MODULE 7: Proposals, Pricing & Working With Clients

The art of writing proposals that actually get you a signed contract and a paid deposit is something you want to perfect as soon as possible because without any clients all you have is an expensive hobby.

Knowing how to both price and sell your services is essential to your success as a wedding stylist. There are many things to account for when setting your prices and presenting them to your client.

In this module we’ll be looking at how to present your ideas to your client and pricing your services so you fill your diary with the right clients.

MODULE 8: The Wedding Day and Beyond

On the big day you have to be ready to tackle anything and be the best you can be for your clients from an early start right through until the end of the night.

You may even be setting up the wedding and running the celebrations over several days. So you need to be prepared and ready to hit the ground running as soon as you arrive on site at the venue.

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” – Benjamin Franklin

In this module we’re looking at what happens on the actual wedding day and how you capture what you’ve created for future clients to see.
