A Unique “Real-World” Academy

TS Wedding Academy (TSWA) offers a “one of a kind” Mentorship Programs, since 2011 that allows students to learn through “Real-World” Training by getting “Hands-on Experience” from an Award Winning Team of Event Professionals (#1 in Toronto for Wedding Planning and Design, as awarded by Wedding Industry Awards), who are passionate about their businesses in the Event Planning industry.

Brought to you by an Award-Winning Team

Trade Sensation Events & Co, opened its doors in 2008 (Celebrating 14 years) and has seen tremendous success and growth, since its inception. In 2011 Carla Belem, CEO and Event Director decided to “give back” and offer individuals desperately seeking experience in Wedding Planning and Decor & Design, the ability to learn through shadowing Mentors in the field and being fully immersed into the Wedding and Event Planning Industry. As a result of overwhelming interest of applicants wanting to get a foot in the door, she consequently launched the Trade Sensation Wedding Academy and has since Mentored over 700 students from all over the World, some as far as Europe – many from France and Portugal, Africa, Columbia to name a few, and most commonly from all over Canada.
