The Wedding Planner Collective was founded in the fall of 2014 by Santa Barbara wedding planner, Joelle Duff of Joelle Charming. After realizing the lack of information out there for wedding planners, Joelle started the community as an effort to share experience and expertise with one another so that the collective reputation of the wedding planning industry could be raised. She holds the firm belief of community over competition, and that there is more than enough work for everyone. This is why she is so willing to share her story and secrets – so that others may become more productive and professional as a result.
