The future of wedding planning is here. This hands-on session will walk planners through the practical integration of AI tools to streamline workflows, enhance creativity, and deliver personalized experiences that resonate. From visual generators and smart proposal builders to predictive CRMs and location scouting engines, AI is no longer a distant concept—it's your next best collaborator.

Whether you work solo or lead a team, you'll learn how to implement intelligent systems that automate repetitive tasks, decode client preferences, and elevate every touchpoint in the wedding journey. This session will demonstrate how to work smarter (not harder) without losing the magic that makes weddings human, meaningful, and emotionally powerful.
