When we have clients over to interview us, they often ask us for other vendors that we work with. “What photographers do you work well with?”, “Do you know any good bakers?”, “Who do you recommend for a DJ?” and more. We’ve always thought it was important to network with other vendors, but when you’re so busy at the weddings, it’s hard to get much time in for that.

So, our wheels starting turning and we decided to have a party!

We invited several vendors in the wedding industry to our home to show off their work and network with others. Some we had worked with before, some were referred to me by other vendors. It was great to have the time to talk and meet new people! Many ideas were exposed that I think will end up benefiting not only the vendors, but our clients as well!

Photographers from Studio Laguna, Danio Photography and Happenstance Photography were able to show us their portfolios. We found that Danio is now offering Photo Booths which have been very popular as of late! We of course showed some videos and Generation Celebration Cakes brought a wonderful Chai Latte cake - delilcious!

Alice-Lynn of The Late Bloomer brought some of her beautiful flowers to share - they are adorning my kitchen table still! Ribbon Gift Consultant Eva Trojanowski showed us a great gift idea for clients that recommend us or for Brides and Grooms to give to their wedding party. Jeff Richards of Party Time Productions spoke about the dj business as well as the wedding industry in general.

Theresa of Little Bridal Shop also came - maybe next time she’ll wear one of her beautiful wedding gowns to show - LOL! But seriously, I will be wearing one of her gowns soon - as a bridesmaid of course!

All in all, we thought the party was a hit and plan on having more in the future. We’d like to have one every six months, but that could be wishful thinking as so many of us are just swamped at that time of year! At the very least we’ll have one annually.

Thanks to all who took the time to come to our little party - we’re looking forward to seeing - and working! with you all soon!
