Your contract is your business speaking for you. In this video, I walk you through the must-have clauses that every wedding planning contract should include. A great contract is more than just legal protection — it’s a roadmap for you, your clients, and your business. When done right, it creates confidence on both sides and sets the foundation for a successful relationship. Some of the key points I cover include: Overview of Client Desires – How to outline broad strokes (season, guest count, priorities, color palette, level of production) so expectations are crystal clear. Planner’s Process – Detailing the unbreakable steps you follow, from venue and vendor selection to design and execution. Client Responsibilities – Ensuring couples understand their role in communication, payments, and decision-making. Cancellation & Termination Clauses – Protecting yourself and the client when plans change. Intellectual Property & Social Media – Who owns images, designs, and how content can be shared. Non-Disparagement & Confidentiality – Safeguarding your reputation and protecting client privacy. Whether you’re a planner, vendor, or client, this video will help you understand how contracts serve as both shield and structure in the wedding industry. ✨ Celebrating life, luxury, and above all else, love. #WeddingPlanner #Contracts #WeddingBusiness #andreaeppolito

Storytelling and communication are the heart of extraordinary weddings and events.

In this episode, I explore how storytelling connects us to our clients—positioning them as the hero of their celebration—and how communication ensures we deliver on that promise together as an industry. From planners and photographers to venues, DJs, and florists, every creative partner has a role to play in telling the couple’s story and in communicating before, during, and after the event.

You’ll hear why communication isn’t just external, client-facing service, but also internal, vendor-facing collaboration that guarantees seamless execution. When we combine powerful storytelling with intentional communication, we don’t just create weddings—we create legacies.

✨ Celebrating life, luxury, and above all else, love.

Not every wedding planner knows how to spend $1 million effectively.

In this video, I share why managing a seven-figure wedding budget requires more than just taste and style — it demands strategy, foresight, and discipline. Money alone doesn’t guarantee luxury; it’s how that money is allocated, layered, and leveraged that transforms an event into a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

I’ll break down the difference between spending lavishly and spending wisely, and why true luxury is about intentional design, not just expensive decisions. Whether you’re a planner, photographer, venue, or vendor, understanding how to maximize value at this level is essential to serving today’s ultra-high-net-worth couples.

✨ Celebrating life, luxury, and above all else, love.
