FALL 2022

MARKETING/Communication INTERNSHIP

We are looking for a Fall 2022 Marketing Intern for Katharine Marie Weddings (you can read more about our story here, and the legacy each of our brides is part of here). While this internship is focused mainly on the marketing side of a business in the wedding industry, there will be opportunities for you to gain hands on experience with wedding dress styling, wedding planning, running a brick and mortar store, along with attending networking and other events in the Upstate South Carolina area. The wedding industry is a fun and creative field in which marketing and communications play a huge role.

We host in-store events monthly, and have a full year of weddings ahead. Our team currently consists of 2 part-time bridal stylists, one admin/planning assistant, and day-of assistants.

The ideal candidate will have some of these skills and experience but also posses a strong ability to take direction as well as initiative. The more you bring to the table the better opportunity for future growth. This is an unpaid internship that will run from September 2022 – December 2022. We cannot guarantee a full or part-time job at the end of the internship, but it is not off the table either!
