Working at Stylish Events

Wedding Planning Internships (or work experience) are offered to up to two candidates at a time and last 4 months.  Shorter placements of around two weeks are also available from time to time, but there is no set schedule for these placements. 

Places are limited and fill up very fast. There is no cost involved to the candidate, however, our Internships are unpaid.  We will cover your London travel to and from our office and provide lunch each day you are with us.

The best way to get on the short list for the Internship is to attend our Life of Wedding Planner Course.  

Our next internship cycle will begin in June 2023. 

Would you like to attend our Course? It's for anyone thinking about becoming a wedding planner, whether you are studying at the moment or just thinking about a career change!

Dominique has been running this course since 2012 and has trained over 700 hundred aspiring wedding planners. 

Not sure what a wedding planner does or how we run our business?  Dominique will go through the "reality" of being a wedding planner and what we actually do for our clients.

VIRTUAL COURSE

We are continuing to offer the course virtually during 2023. It's still the same face to face course, just over Zoom. The total course fee is £80.

The course is run over two 5-hour sessions on a Saturday.

The beginning of 2023 is very busy for us as we are planning and organising our lovely client's weddings - so the first course of the year will be in July and then we will be  back on our usual monthly schedule. Please keep checking back for course dates. 

We also donate £10 from each delegate fee to a charity very dear to Dominique's heart – Happy Paws Puppy Rescue. This is the amazing charity where she was lucky enough to get her wonderful dog, Jake. 

Who is it for?
The Course is for anyone thinking about becoming a wedding planner or wants to work in the events industry. You do not have to be studying wedding planning already.  We've had people from 16 to 70 attend the course, from all walks of life and different stages of their career and from all over the world!

What will I learn?
You will learn the "reality" of life as a wedding planner. As well as practical hints and templates from real events, Dominique will share anecdotes from the hundreds of weddings and events she has organised over the past 30 years.
