Eventology 2009

So can you say that I am so late to blog about things. Well you can but please don't. I am really aiming to catch up on things. I only have about 40 different things to blog about so hopefully I can get you all up to speed on what is happening with us at A`vie.

Let's journey back to when I went to Eventology. I wanted to share with you some of the things we did and who we saw at the event...

These are some of the great things we received when we were greeted at Eventology. We as planners love to give gifts but oh how we love to receive them. :)

Look at these ladies. Here is the CORE TEAM!

Three highly successful and renowned wedding planners discussed their insight and perspective on how to create and cultivate a prosperous wedding business.
*Saundra Hadley of planning. . .forever events on How to Close the Deal: Sales Methods for the Wedding Industry.
*Discuss how to Turn Brides into Fans: Nurturing Your Relationships with Clients with Terrica Skaggs of Fabuluxe, Inc. and iWed: International Network of Wedding Designers.
*Lastly, learn how to Leverage Your Brand to Reach Today's Bride: Marketing in a Post-Modern World with Liene Stevens of Blue Orchid Designs and The Smart Planner.

It's me at the Mix 'N Mingle Gathering on the first night. I was able to meet so many planners from all over the world. I had so much fun and learned so much.

I have already put so much in place from what I have learned. I hope to do more soon. I am loving that I had the opportunity to go. I am already looking forward to next years Eventology.

WOW!!! What a great event...when is the next one?

I can't explain all that I have learned from Eventology. It is so much great information. I was able to meet other planners who do what I do. It is great to know that we all are in the same boat and love what we do; have a passion for what we do; want to help our clients; building relationships with our clients; and it goes on and on.

I am super excited that I now have some other dear friends that I have gotten to know face to face rather than on Twitter, Facebook or blogging. So what out as some new things are getting ready to role out in the up coming weeks.

See you shortly.

Angela is gone to Eventology...April 6th-9th

Believe it or not I am getting away. Crazy as it might sound I have decided to go on a trip...well a WORKING but fun, exciting and a learning conference. I am super excited about it. I can't say enough about it. I have been wanting to go to this for years and I am finally doing it.
I will be in Indianapolis for several days to attend this amazing conference called Eventology. So if you are wondering why I won't be getting back to you so quickly think about me learning more for you.
Also, as soon as I arrive back I go into full swing into a huge wedding for several days. So I ask that you please have patience and grace with me. I will have staff assigned to your event and they will be in touch with you while I am gone. Please feel free to email me if you have questions and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
I will blog about what I learn throughout my time. So stay tuned. Until then...~Angela
