Camp Wedding Retreat at Camp Wandewega

In September, I was honored to be asked to speak by Sarah and Andrea from Cherry Berry Events at Camp Wedding at the Camp Wandewega, located in Wisconsin. This was their inaugural wedding retreat and I was looking forward to meeting some new friends in the wedding industry. I attend a couple of event conferences a year and I was intrigued by the concept of Camp Wedding, with wedding professionals being in a camp environment.

Wedding 360 in San Francisco, California

I am off to San Francisco, California this weekend to attend Wedding 360, The Academy for Planners and Designers conference at the St Regis Hotel. Created for wedding planners, weddings designers and floral designers, The Academy will provide in-depth and how to classes taught by the masters in the business. I am so excited to see old friends (and meet some new friends) and learn from some of the best in the industry including Rebecca Grinnals, Sean Low, David Beahm, Todd Fiscus and Tara Guerard. I am also looking forward to experiencing the Four Seasons San Francisco property where the classes will be held on Monday. In looking at the agenda it looks like there are some wonderful parties planned for the attendees. I am excited to see the new trends for weddings and to come home and share them with my brides and grooms.
