Ep. 59: The Truth About Being a Type B Wedding Planner

Are you a Type A wedding planner… or more of a Type B vibe?

In this episode of Just Another Biz Podcast, Kari and Gabby get real about something that doesn’t get talked about enough in the events industry: not every successful planner is Type A.

As two proud Type B planners, who recently discovered this, we break down what that actually looks like in real life. From running timelines and managing vendors to keeping calm when the unexpected happens, we talk about how different personalities show up in wedding planning and why there’s absolutely room for both styles in this industry.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not Type A enough” to be a planner, this episode is your reminder that being organized doesn’t have to mean being rigid. Sometimes a little flexibility, creativity, and calm energy is exactly what a wedding day needs.

• Type B doesn’t mean disorganized. Many Type B planners are extremely capable, they just approach structure and problem solving differently.

• Calm energy can be a superpower on wedding days. Staying flexible and level-headed when things shift is often what keeps events running smoothly.

• There’s no single personality type that makes a great planner. The industry has space for many styles of leadership and workflow.

• Your planning style will naturally shape your systems. The key is building processes that support how you actually work.

• Comparison is unnecessary. Just because someone runs their business differently doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.
