445: Your Guide to Breaking Into the Lux...

Evie McLeod & Lindsey Roman
About this episode

Ever dreamt of breaking into the luxury wedding market but felt like it’s an exclusive club with no map? This week, Evie and Lindsey are joined by Manda Worthington, luxury wedding planner and designer, who’s pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to get booked at the top tier — and keep those dream clients coming back for more. Manda doesn’t just plan weddings, she crafts unforgettable, high-touch experiences that are equal parts polished and personal. In this episode, she shares what “luxury” actually means in the wedding world (hint: it’s not just about the budget), and how to position yourself so planners like her want to hire you. We ask Manda about the portfolio and client experience must-haves that make you stand out, why vendor relationships can make or break your bookings, how to communicate your value without feeling pushy or salesy, and so much more! Whether you’re a photographer, florist, caterer, or fellow planner, Manda’s behind-the-scenes insights will help you elevate your brand, price with confidence, and step into spaces you once thought were out of reach.
