Heather Porcella considers it an honor to create a spectacular wedding that brings her client’s vision to life. As the owner of Truly Your Events (www.TrulyYourEvents.com), Heather was voted the “Best Wedding Planner for 2008” in the Akron/Canton Ohio area by the MyFoxCleveland.com Hot List. Her company has coordinated numerous events of various sizes, budgets, and styles.
After graduating from Kent State University with a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design and a minor in Business Administration, Heather worked in Residential and Commercial Interior Design, as an art teacher, and as a floral designer. Her experience planning showers and weddings for friends combined with her education led her to create her own event planning business in 2003. Truly Your Events offers the latest in wedding planning trends including eco-friendly designs, full event coordination, and free initial consultation to provide clients complete planning services to help them save time, money, and alleviate stress.
After becoming a WPI Certified Wedding Planner in the spring of 2008, Heather agreed to share her knowledge and expertise with The Wedding Planning Institute’s (www.WeddingPlanningInstitute.com) certification course students at the University of Akron. Heather will be teaching aspiring students how to become successful wedding planners by bringing personalized attention and creativity to every client’s occasion.
“In today’s busy world, trying to plan a special event can be very stressful and time consuming. By providing solutions to the demanding needs of event design and coordination, you can allow the client to enjoy a stress free celebration,” Heather writes.

I thought you might be interested to know that my latest book, "How To Get Married In Green: have an eco-friendly wedding without compromising on style," was published recently.
You can read more about it here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Get-Married-Green-Eco-friendly/dp/1845282701/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1195123385&sr=1-1
...although of course the book is available on all Amazons, not just the UK version, and is in most good book stores.
I also run an associated blog where readers can post questions as comments, or email me with them, about how to make their wedding or other celebration more eco-friendly. I then respond on the blog. That's here:

Thanks for sharing the information about the wedding planner education. This would helpful for the people who are willing to become the wedding planner. Some people will like to plan their own wedding by themselves with the help of wedding planner iPhone apps due to some reason.
