I wanna ask you, have you ever thought of writing a book? If you've been in the industry for any amount of time, you've likely been told by a friend or a coworker that you should write a book.

There's so many crazy things that happen to us in this industry, right? And putting it all in a book just sounds like such a great idea. But then you start to think, maybe that's a lot of work!? I'm busy already and I don't even know where to start or how I would get it published or what it would even be about???

On today's show, my guest, Jeri Solomon and Edna Dratch Parker are both wedding pros in New England and Boston, and they came together over the last several years to write a book on how to plan a wedding.

What I love about this book is that they did a really great job of simply setting the foundation of wedding planning for couples for newly engaged couples.

They don't get into pricing and markets.

They aren't trying to replace a wedding planner.

In fact, they tell you that having a wedding planner is actually super important to planning your wedding.

But they do really set the foundation for engaged couples to help alleviate some of those questions that we answer over and over and over again as wedding pros.

If you've ever thought about writing a book, Edna and Jeri talk about their journey of writing and publishing their book, as well as what it's done for their businesses and why you should really consider authoring a book if that's something that's been on your bucket list.

So you guys, I know that you're gonna enjoy this episode, so sit back, relax, and let's get into it!!
