Bonus 1. Wedding planning software 
With the course you'll receive a piece of incredibly useful wedding planning software (RRP £74.99). It helps you plan and record all the important details of your clients' weddings in one easy-to-use program.
The software guides you through the planning of each individual aspect of the wedding. With it, you can record your clients' details, their budgets, suppliers for each wedding that you plan, your clients' guestlists, a to-do list etc. Plus it includes a useful countdown to each wedding. Click here to read more about the software.
 Bonus 2. Read our Diary of a Professional Wedding Planner
Follow the highs and lows of a professional wedding planner's life, as our self-employed wedding planner reports each week on her experiences in the field. You'll get insights into her day, and learn from her successes and failures. The Diary is available exclusively to our learners.
Bonus 3. Free mentoring when you complete the course
Once you complete the course, we’ll give you three months’ free business mentoring.
You’ll have a personal mentor who'll help you set up your own business (if that's your choice).
For three months after getting your Diploma you'll get one-to-one advice and support from an active practitioner.
So if you're unsure on how to launch your own business, this mentoring programme will put you on the road to success.
And because it's all part of the Institute's course, it won't cost you a penny.
 Bonus 4. You get the files for a free wedding planner's website
You get a free wedding planner’s website, complete with sample text. Just change the text to suit your needs, upload it to your site, and you’ll have your own website!
If you went to a designer, they would charge you at least £385 for this work. And because we know what clients want from a wedding planner’s website, the pages are better than what a designer would provide.

This 47 page book contains complete step-by-step checklists for starting a successful business.
