How can i start my own business doing wedding preparations for second weddings?
Create a website.


Then make and distribute business cards.


Get your name put in a phone book/yellowpages.
Reply:The same as you would start any business, but if you are marketing to a specific niche you will likely gain a reputation faster as a specialist. Just make sure you do all of your homework and know all of the differences between first and second weddings (forgive me if that is too obvious).
Reply:Get some experience first. Either work with a wedding planner or event planner. Meet some people who will give you some exposure. Either putting your card out or giving your contact info. But the best exposure is word of mouth.





After you have a bit of experience and a portfolio, get a business license. Then create marketing (business cards, website, yellow pages). But it has to be legal first.





Also you'll have a bit of knowledge as for what florists you want to recommend. Part of hiring a wedding planner instead of doing it yourself is you have someone who knows what photographers show up and do a good job. Knows some florists who will get the job done. So that you won't end up with a flake who ends up being sued by the bride. Well right now you don't know that any more than a bride does.





Don't limit yourself to just second weddings though. No need for that.
