Wedding Event Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Full-Time | Open Availability Required

Are you passionate about creating unforgettable guest experiences in a fast-paced, dynamic environment? Join our team as a Full-Time Event Manager at Wedgewood Weddings & Events! This leadership role goes beyond event execution — you’ll guide a team, manage timelines, and ensure each celebration runs flawlessly from start to finish.

We are actively seeking candidates with open availability, including early morning events, evening events, weekends, and holidays. Weddings and celebrations don’t follow a 9–5 schedule — and neither do we!

If you're ready to lead, problem-solve, and create seamless, memorable experiences, we want to hear from you.

What you’ll do:

• Lead Event Execution:
  Oversee event setups, coordinate with vendors, direct event staff, manage event timelines, and ensure flawless execution from start to finish.
• Mentor & Motivate:
  Support, coach, and inspire event staff to deliver exceptional hospitality and exceed guest expectations.
• Stay Ahead of Challenges:
  Anticipate potential issues and troubleshoot quickly and professionally to keep events running smoothly.
• Enhance Guest Experiences:
  Serve as the primary on-site leader, resolving concerns promptly and ensuring couples and guests feel supported throughout the event.
• Maintain Standards:
  Uphold rigorous health, safety, cleanliness, and service standards that reflect our company excellence.

Who we’re looking for:

• Experience:
  Previous experience as a Banquet Captain or in a similar hospitality leadership role is required. Wedding and event experience strongly preferred.
• Open Availability (Required):
  Candidates must have flexible, open availability including:

• • • Early morning events

    • Evening events

    • Weekends

    • Holidays

• Master Multitasker:
  Confidently manage event setups, shifting timelines, client interactions, and team leadership in a high-energy environment.
• Leadership & Initiative:
  Proven ability to lead a team with a hands-on, proactive approach to problem-solving.
• Attention to Detail:
  Strong eye for detail and event aesthetics to ensure every celebration exceeds expectations.
• Commitment to Excellence:
  A passion for delivering flawless experiences and creating lasting memories for couples and guests.

Additional Information:

• Physical Requirements:
  Ability to lift and move chairs and tables, assist with event setup and breakdown, and remain active throughout events.
• Schedule Expectations:
  This is a full-time position requiring open scheduling flexibility. Events take place when our guests celebrate — which means mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays are essential.
