From Behind The Clipboard  

 

Biographical / Self-Help / Wedding Planning

One of the most interesting and rewarding aspects of being an event planner is the personal relationships I develop with clients with whom I work. For a period of time, I get to be an integral part of their lives as we plan together to create a lifecycle event that will be long remembered. During this process with them, I am often navigating a range of emotion, family and relationship dynamics, decision paralysis and more. Not only am I a wedding planner and designer, but I often feel that I am a coach, mentor and therapist as well.

This book dives deeper than being only a “how to” guide by also including psychological and professional perspective pertaining to the wedding planning process.  It helps address decision making, external influences, financial pressure, stress management, relationship preservation and so much more. I share my advice and pro tips and open up about personal experiences including stories that reflect on what I have learned and the wisdom I can impart to others based upon what I have done successfully in planning and experiences that may not have gone as I had hoped, but became a great lesson for what not to do. I want everyone who is planning a wedding to know that it is absolutely ok for their wedding to be “perfectly imperfect.”

Review

Are you planning a wedding soon? Are you looking to become a wedding planner? Does the wedding planning world fascinate you? This book will appeal to so many as it really is a combination of different genres as to appeal to many.

Shari Zatman has seen a lot in her years of wedding planning and she takes us along to share her experiences with us. She shares the obvious challenges of wedding planning while also shedding light on things that you may have never thought of going hand in hand with wedding planning.

It's a book that is compelling and really draws you in. The authors voice shines through and her passion for her work really is apparent.

You will learn a lot, but also be entertained at the same time.

About the Author

I am a business owner and professional wedding and special event planner.  I have owned Perfectly Planned by Shari for 20 years and have worked in the event industry for approximately 28 years. During this time, I have planned hundreds of weddings and events.

Majoring in design and communications in college, I bring my passion for interior design to my events. I worked with my clients on developing the creative vision and curate the style and aesthetic for all events I plan.

That being said, my greatest achievement is being a mom and raising my twin, almost 21 year old sons, whom I am immensely proud of for being responsible and kind humans. I believe the best thing I have done in my life has been creating my family.
