​
WPL provides full-service wedding planning in a classroom-style format where brides take advantage of personalized direction & assistance from professional planners, face time with vendors, and networking with other brides - at a fraction of the price of traditional wedding planning.
Skip the countless meetings with multiple vendors in a myriad of locations. The Wedding Planning Lab saves you TIME, ENERGY, and MONEY by bringing everything needed to plan your wedding directly to you in one location, one session per month, without the stress.
​
WPL is the only experience of its kind where couples are given the opportunity to learn, experience, observe, and practice all things wedding planning.
Better than a bridal expo and more valuable than any wedding planning book...
The Wedding Planning Lab offers a course to concoct your stress-free planning experience! You and your future spouse will be welcomed into a classroom-style setting where you and a number of brides alike will dive into your individual wedding planning details.
The WPL Experience.
Have you heard the horror stories of brides trying to plan their weddings themselves? DON'T BE THAT BRIDE!
​
With WPL, you have the security of making your own plans with a professional shadow to guide you on your path.
Once a month, for the duration of your selected planning course, you will be privy to the knowledge, tips, and tricks of industry professionals. Many tasks that would take hours, days, and even weeks of your time will be shortened by bringing an array of vendors and venues directly to you. You will also participate in various activities designed to keep you on-budget, on-time, and in-line with your vision for your special day.
