This seems like a very interesting job. I never knew there was so much to work on on weddings, and that as many as 81% of weddings are planned online. My siblings’ weddings weren’t, so this is new to me. It’s definitely a modern job, thanks for posting.
@Imee: NP! I thought it was really interesting, too.
