I'm sorry to hear that you're having one of those moments... I'm a teacher in a low socio-economic area and currently doing my masters in social work, so I totally get how stressful it can be! It would be so cool to be a wedding planner! I hope that you're feeling better soon.

Kimmy,

I had one of those moments about my job a while ago too and was thinking of moving to Maui and working in the wedding business also. We should start a company! :-)

I've been in social work for a long time. It'd be nice to make a change and do something creative and filled with happy thoughts! I say we do move to Maui and start a business. It really takes a destination bride to help another destination bride out. And I can so make good cupcakes, too!

Kimmy - is your company going to be big enough for an accountant?  If so I am on board.  I am here now and don't have to leave if there is a job available!

There have been a few HI Knotties who have done just that! Evonne Wong started a planning business years ago and seems to have moved out of that and now does photography with her husband... I think they're working out of Oahu/San Fransisco now with Visionari.

It's amazing how many knotties after tapping their creative juices want to go into the business.
