Achieve your dreams of becoming a wedding planner with the Wedding School

April 23, 2024March 16, 2020 by Evogue Media

Want to build your career as a wedding planner

The potential of a career in the 40 billion dollar wedding industry is incredibly promising. And when dedication and enthusiasm ride on sound knowledge, success and fulfilment are very much par for the course.

The Wedding School, a Mumbai based institute provides career-focused education to those who are passionate about the industry. Intensive diploma courses take students through each step of the process of putting together a celebration via in-depth, practical and emotional learning.

Mareesha Parikh, CEO & Co-founder of The Wedding School tells us about what the courses have in store for students.

1. The Wedding School is unique in the way it trains students in managing every aspect of a faceted industry like wedding planning. What was your vision for this institute and the aspirations of the curriculum?

“Our getting into the education space and structuring our curriculum was guided by a core philosophy, ‘Creating Contributors’.

Our aim was to give back to the industry by training young people who want to join it and contribute to it. The Wedding School aims to transform their raw talent in ways that will benefit the industry as a whole and will give each student a personal advantage.

In our experience as planners, we’ve come in contact with many freshers who have had a great education but know very little about the industry. Even those who have been trained in event management will realise that managing a corporate or sports event is very different from putting together a wedding.

The curriculum imparts practical knowledge about every department where a wedding planner’s involvement is expected. It entails everything from creating logistics sheets to making RSVP calls, coordinating with the clients on various fronts to dealing with the bride as well as her entourage including her makeup artist, her designer, etc., negotiating with vendors and the whole nine yards. Many of our sessions focus on décor and production because many of our students are interested in specializing in that area.”

2. There is the assumption that since wedding planning is a ‘hands-on’ career, it’s best to learn on-the-job rather than in a classroom. What does The Wedding School offer that makes its courses better than just on-ground learning?

“A lot of young people do believe this but it’s far from the truth. Whatever experience you get on the field will not provide any insight into the thought and effort that is put into the on-ground execution. A wedding, on an average, takes six to nine months to plan. To expect that mere involvement on the last three days – the days of the celebration – can give you a thorough perspective on the entire process is naïve.

Weddings are meticulously planned affairs with a plethora of minute details. How do you learn important techniques like thinking out of the box, conceptualizing creative themes, managing the wishes and temperaments of family members and so on.

In order to learn how a project evolves from plan to perfection, it is imperative to enroll in a school that will open a world of immense knowledge, insight and in depth experience. The great career opportunities will follow.”

3. What makes a course in wedding planning different from one in event management?

“Long before we launched The Wedding School, I’ve lectured at the city’s leading event management institutes. Event management courses do touch upon weddings, treating them as a niche topic and the approach is more functional; focus on lighting, size of the stage, etc. There is no true understanding of how complex the demands at a wedding can be as opposed to any other event. The approach needs to be more emotional.

At The Wedding School we begin by teaching our students how to manage the emotions of the family, making sure everyone is on the same page when making decisions, gauging their requirements and so on… The Wedding School alumni will be creative players who don’t just design wedding set ups but also create entire experiences that engage, enthrall and exhilarate the couple’s guests.

We’ve received feedback from a lot of wedding planners who have such great things to say about our students. We’ve been told that our students who intern with these planners are more competent and skilled than employees with a couple of years experience!”

4. What is a typical lecture at The Wedding School like?

“We’re quite a ‘typical’ school. We expect our students to report before time, nobody is given the option of missing lectures, they have to take notes, whilst in class, they are not allowed to access their phones, they have to be attentive – everything that one would find in an old-fashioned school. We also give them assignments on the basis of which their performance is evaluated. This eventually enables them to get placed in organisations that are best suited for them.

My mother, Dr. Usha Parikh has an academic background and we together have personally designed the curriculum. She has been part of the wedding management firm for nearly a decade and along with her experience her academic process ensures the programs are very thorough. Classes are either given by me or industry experts and we conclude with a Q&A round where students are allowed to clarify doubts and discuss queries.”

5. Do you have any message for those aspiring to be professionals in the wedding industry?

“Please understand the value of knowledge. The industry is evolved and very professional and is at a stage when you need to be educated before you enter it. We’ve moved past the time when families would unite to throw a big party. Everyone wants an expert to handle the affair. Even low budget weddings expect a certain level of skill and professionalism from wedding planners who will be engaged in every aspect of the celebration. It is of utmost importance to gain the right knowledge before you apply for a job. Not only will the right education encourage you to think creatively and transform you into a real contributor, but it will also give you credibility and due to this, chances of employability increases. You will be taken seriously and will develop a reputation as an individual who creates weddings that are unique and extraordinary.”

Admissions for Batch 4 are open. The Batch begins on 1st September 2019! For enquiries and enrollment call – +91 9820389809 or Email – info@theweddingschool.in, Website – www.theweddingschool.in

Step into the world of wedding planning with the Wedding School

April 23, 2024March 16, 2020 by Evogue Media

Want to build your career as a wedding planner

A decade ago, movies like ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ and ‘The Wedding Planner’ introduced the idea of a career in wedding planning to a generation of youth. The films did spark an interest in this vocation but they were far from being a beginner’s guide into the industry. An artistic glamorization of the process that leads to the grand finale – the wedding, all the work behind the scenes were left, well behind the scenes. So the question remains – how would you learn about the complex, intricate, intuitive work that is wedding planning?

Mareesha Parikh, Director Swaaha WMC ( Wedding Planning & Management co.) along with her partner founded The Wedding School. The masterminds insist on a personalized approach in every aspect of the training.

A Mumbai based institute, The Wedding School has been established to induct creative minds into this industry through their certified Diplomas in Wedding Planning & Management. Through their courses like the Diploma Course – India, students are exposed to the aspects of orchestrating a dreamy wedding. The institute also plans a Specialised Diploma in Mentoring which will not only train start up’s but guide them through setting up their own venture in a structured manner.

“We came up with this concept because we wanted students to get a sense of being in a real wedding planner’s office. Through our courses, we create an environment that allows them to go crazy with their imagination, come up with ideas and learn to work as a team,” says co-founder and CEO, Mareesha Parikh. The course also offers on the ground experience, she elaborates, “Special weekend sessions and exclusive workshops give students hands-on experience at various live events. At the end of the program, students can even avail of an internship following which they will be ready to ace the wedding management game.” The internship is a real test of their abilities which puts the students theoretical knowledge into practical use. This gives them deep insights into the workings of the wedding industry. During the internship they are even absorbed by leading wedding planners which boosts their career even further.

The school uses a distinctive approach that helps students of event management delve deep into the nuances of managing a wedding, specifically. “As the name suggests, our focus is completely on all things to do with weddings,” says Mareesha.

The school’s extensive curriculum includes wedding invitations & gifting, hospitality and logistics, décor and designing, production and technicals to entertainment, client servicing and team management, vendors and partner management, budgeting and costing, and so much more. “Wedding planning requires specialization because it’s not just about getting the event right, but getting the emotions right. It’s about dealing with family members as well as the dreams of the bride and groom. To understand that and deliver it in a span of four to five months is far more challenging,” she explains.

TWS is focused on educating and helping young aspiring individuals who are keen on exploring the different facets of this field and want to excel at them. They take their students by the hand and prepare them to leverage all the opportunities that come their way. The institute believes in an interactive approach where counselling and a streamlined curriculum help you to achieve your goal.

Want to build your career as a wedding planner

Wedding Planning is not everyone’s cup of tea. In fact, a basic sense of designing and organizing is not enough to plan a wedding, especially if you are dealing with an Indian family . An Indian wedding planner needs to keep this in mind that it’s not just the wedding of two people, rather it’s the wedding of two families. Its not just a wedding anymore it’s a statement in society that leaves a mark forever. It’s not just about the rituals its about creating trends that can make your wedding go viral.

These dynamics can be attained only if the teams working on the wedding can look at every moment beyond their call of duty. This is what The Wedding School set out to achieve when we started our journey in 2018. There is a growing demand for younger, brighter, enthusiastic boys and girls who have the passion to give up their personal celebrations to create an outstanding wedding for a client .

Not all had the courage to take it up but we were sure we wanted to create an awareness about this industry and the potential it holds.

Our courses are personally designed by me so as to be relevant and closest to reality with the experience of having partnered with a large scale successful Wedding Management Co. A combination of nearly a decade and with my personal career of 2 decades that I have had with in the Events & Entertainment Industry – the students have an ample amount of experience to learn from. The students were given formal education by the industry experts in a program created by Dr. Usha Parikh, an academician and counsellor who has spent over 4 decades in the field of education. The subjects we taught them included décor, entertainment design, show running, hospitality and logistics etc.

The Wedding School Internship:

Our students have had an outstanding chance to work with some of the leading planners and companies of the wedding industry. The motive and values are integral to us that; ‘one has to invest time in oneself and at the back end in order to be a noteworthy contributor.’

They got a chance to prove their capabilities in their respective internship placements that The Wedding School provided to each student. Some of them interned with; Horizon WIE, Tamarind Global Wedding, Swaaha WMC, Dreamzkraft, Momente Wedding Planners, ThankYou Logistics , Effects Tech to name a few.

TWS understands the expectation that the industry has from us and the responsibility that comes along. Our motive is not to create a planner out of every student, but to create contributors for the Indian Wedding Industry and help those with an entrepreneurial skill to best the best and raise the industry standards whilst making wealth and fame.
