Understand the legalities of owning, protecting
and growing your wedding business
Law School for Wedding Professionals is a full day of education designed to help you understand and implement policies, practices and protections for your business. The workshop, led by attorney Katy Carrier, covers topics such as selecting the proper business entity, contracts, insurance, protecting your intellectual property and legal issues in social media, and also includes practical, hands-on training, such as step-by-step instruction on filing copyright registrations, preparing cease and desist letters and filing copyright infringement takedown notices. Your one-day law school admission also includes the option of adding on a custom, attorney-drafted client contract, to be completed shortly following your attendance date. Your new contract includes one-on-one attorney counseling and drafting specific to your business’s unique needs.
