Natalie Charlton who has done a wonderful job working at Saguaro Buttes has recently graduated from QC School of Wedding Planning, which is a recognized Event Planning School. She writes about her schooling and her passion for wedding coordinating.
Working at Saguaro Buttes for the past year and a half has fostered my love and passion for helping brides plan their special day. I became Assistant Coordinator in the beginning of 2012, and I finished a wedding planning course through QC Event Planning in August 2012. This education, combined with my previous experience in event management and set-up, enhanced my knowledge of how to help brides plan from A – Z.
This course also developed my skills in all the different components of the wedding planning process, from problem-solving, understanding cultural nuances, connecting with diverse vendors to fit clients’ needs, handling a variety of scenarios efficiently, to even planning a honeymoon for the bride and groom. I desire to create the happiest day of our bride and grooms’ lives, and that requires so much more than just choosing colors, flowers, or themes. Knowing how to stay organized, stay within budget, communicate, and go above and beyond are key to success. I am extremely honored to help our future brides plan their big day as an International Wedding Planning Professional.
