“You may have the best friends in the world, but can you blame them for not wanting to hear your wedding drama every day for a year?”
What’s a professional bridesmaid?
I kind of made up the job after being a bridesmaid in eight of my friends’ weddings. I posted on Craigslist asking what help brides might want. Most of the responses I got back were from brides who were disappointed in their friends. They weren’t getting help with planning and didn’t have anyone to listen to their problems with their vendors, families, and fiancés. Now brides come to me for everything from checking out their vendor contracts to solving fights between friends. The prices range from $150 if you just want a 90-minute phone session to talk through your worries, to $175 if you want me to write a speech for you, to $1,200 for full-day wedding coordination. A lot of my clients—I’ve had 60 so far—find me on social media and YouTube.
