Wedding Industry News: Can Technology Match Human Touch?

In this episode, we will be discussing new Certifications and Membership through the CWP Society, as well as how couples are trying to use AI as wedding planners, and how it can all go terribly wrong.

Tune in to hear Laurie Hartwell and Krisy Thomas from the CWP Society as they reveal the secrets behind the new Wedding Ministry Team Certification Program. This initiative is more than just a certification; it’s a comprehensive effort to foster better collaboration between wedding planners, church coordinators, pastors, sound technicians, and janitorial staff. Discover how customizable templates and thorough education are breaking down barriers to create a respectful and harmonious environment for everyone involved in a wedding at a church. 

Join us as we explore the CWP Society's cutting-edge certifications and premium memberships, designed to simplify and enhance wedding businesses. 

Can AI ever replace the nuanced expertise of a human wedding planner? Laurie and Krisy weigh in on this HOT topic, sharing real-life examples where AI tools like Provenance can certainly assist with tasks such as customizing toasts and generating wedding setup images, but it falls short when it comes to personalization, emotional support, and managing real-life logistics. We discuss the irreplaceable value of experienced planners who handle last-minute changes and vendor negotiations with ease. As we conclude, we reflect on the power of unity and collaboration in the wedding industry, leaving you with an inspiring quote from American poet, Maddie Stepanek, on the strength of teamwork.
