What to look for in wedding day assistants

Good help is so hard to find! The team you have with you on a wedding day really impacts your success.

So many of us have learned the hard way that who you have on your team really matters. They represent you, your brand and they become an extension of your service, beliefs and the way you serve your clients, partner with vendors and work with venues.

Here are the six qualities & qualifications to look for when hiring wedding day assistants:

1. Great Attitude - someone who wants to be there and is happy to be on your team

2. Professionalism - someone who understands the basics of being professional and representing your company

3. Warm Personality - someone who can be warm and inviting to vendors, guests and clients

4. Calm - someone who stays steady under pressure

5. Sense of urgency - someone who can pick up the pace and is aware of when that is needed

6. Attention to detail - someone who wants the job to be done right and pays attention to the missing menu, crooked fork or pushed in chair

7. Follows directions - someone who asks questions when things are unclear and does what you ask

8. Hard working - has a can do attitude ready to do anything and everything the job requires

Always cheering you on,
