Where to Start?

[CB2Events]

Hi,

I passed the Events and Wedding planning course in December 2011 and I haven't done anything with it. I am getting married next Saturday so wanted to have my wedding as part of my portfolio and feel that I am now ready to start my own business.

So....where do I begin? Did you all build up a portfolio of different events you helped out at or did you dive into the deep end and start charging? Also, do you have annual insurance or do you take out a day insurance specific to the event?

I am going to get my marketing all set up and work out prices and what works in my area. Any advice would be great!

Thank you,
Claire
