As a wedding planner, it’s so easy to get overwhelmed, especially in busy season when you’re producing weddings every weekend with no downtime, no time off…
When you’re working this hard, it’s easy to get run down and soon you’ll find yourself struggling to keep up. I mean, there’s a REASON that “Event Coordinator” is listed as the “8th most stressful job in America in 2015” by Forbes Magazine…just behind Firefighter and Police Officer.
What we do is INTENSE.
(can I get an AMEN?)
