Executive Summary
Type of Business: NTH Wedding Consultants is a full service company that
provides complete consulting services for weddings, holy unions and
anniversaries. Our consultants are experienced and dedicated professionals
with many years of event planning experience. NTH Wedding Consultants is
unique in that we give clients our undivided attention. We listen to their needs
and work with them to create the event of their dreams. Our clients' wishes
become our commands. Whether our client wants a Western, or traditional
wedding, we can help. Our services include weddings, honeymoons,
receptions, anniversary consultations, budget planning, answers to etiquette
questions, as well as full-service referrals to florists, hair stylists, entertainers,
musicians, etc.
Management: NTH Wedding Consultants is led by Mr. Nguye n Tien Hung
who has years of experience as CEO for consulting agents as well as his
administrative expertise. The rest of the team has over 8 years of experience
in marketing, sales, finance and operations.
Product and Competition: Unlike most of its competitors, NTH Wedding
Consultants will be offering a full range of services and thus provide the
convenience of one-stop shopping for its clients. This will significantly reduce
the customers' time and efforts preparing for such an important event as a
wedding. Moreover, by utilizing numerous supplier contacts that the company
owners have established and economies of scale, NTH Wedding Consultants
will be able to pass on to its customer sizable cost savings.
Financial: This business will start out as a simple proprietorship, owned by its
founders. As the operation grows, the owners will consider re-registering as a
limited liability company or as a corporation, whichever will better suite the
future business needs.
Use of Proceeds: We estimated that our start-up costs will be VND
80,000,000 (including legal costs, logo design, advertising, direct mail, and
related expenses). An additional VND 160,000,000 will be required in the
bank account as an operating capital for the first two months of operation.

somehow approachable or comparable with what NTH Wedding Consultants
plan to offer to its customers. The following is the list of the major possible
