Some examples

AI compares 20 venues based on guest count and budget.
AI drafts a minute-by-minute timeline for the wedding day.
AI sends vendors reminders with the latest details.
AI handles RSVP tracking and dietary restrictions.

Try it!

Plan a pretend birthday for 30 people. List five tasks AI could handle.

Practice this safely

Try this with a school, hobby, or family example where the stakes are low. Use the AI output as a draft you can question, not as the final answer.

Ask AI to explain events in plain language, then underline anything that sounds uncertain or too broad.
Give it one detail from "How AI Is Changing the Event Planner Career" and ask for two possible next steps plus one reason each step might be wrong.
Check logistics against a trusted source, teacher, adult, expert, or original document before you use it.
