Association of Bridal Consultants Annual Convention 2008

It was great to see Colin Cowie again at the Association of Bridal Consultants (ABC): Business of Bride Conference in November 2008 at The Fairmont Hotel in Newport Beach. He spoke about design and details of various weddings from across the world. A very inspiring 1 hour! The ABC had asked that I give 3 presentations to a crowd of 80+ consultants at each session. Thanks to my intern Jenny, I presented a power point presentation on building a balanced foundation for a thriving wedding planning business, i.e. Layers of Success. Much of what I spoke about is in my upcoming book, “Wedding Wisdom: Advice for the Bride, the Planner or Both”. I was also able to make time to meet with 12 career counseling appointments with wedding planners from across the USA. I love meeting and helping other planners maximize their talents and offer advice of ways they can grow their business and continue their success.
