This question is purely for the interviewer to get to know a little more about you in a fun way, so definitely lead with honesty. There is no one answer that your interviewer wants or needs to hear, so take a moment to reflect on the start of your career and what influenced where you are today. You might have enjoyed planning your own wedding so much that you wanted to support others as well, or maybe you identified that you are highly skilled in planning such events and wanted to support a high-need industry.

"I have enjoyed planning events from a very early age. I would always ask my parents to let me help coordinate birthday parties for me and my siblings, and I only got more involved with event planning as I grew up. I remember when I first decided I wanted to make the switch to weddings full time. I checked my mail one day and received 3 different wedding invitations all at once. I was amused to think of how different each of these weddings would be and excited to participate in the big day. At that moment, it dawned on me that wedding planning is an industry that is constantly evolving and every wedding is different, so I could use my skills and expertise to help others while keeping things dynamic and new for me each wedding. I absolutely love my job, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!"
