Have a valid driver’s license and ability to drive to our venue in Kennett Square.
Strong planning and organizational skills to effectively coordinate and manage all sizes of events.
Excellent interpersonal and customer service skills, both verbal and written. A warm yet professional demeanor that is supportive and caring. The ability to share, not scare, when giving lots of information.

Weekend availability and weekday/weeknight availability as needed.

Compensation

Commission-based, paid in the pay period immediately after the wedding. Range of $700-$1200 per event. And while not guaranteed, there is the possibility of gratuities for every event planned (on average around $200).
