THIS JUST IN!!!- We will have Wink cupcakes at our event! Thanks to Wink for donating these yummy bites for such a good cause!

Wedding planners, florists, djs, photographers, caterers, officiants, seamstresses, hair and make-up artists, and other unique bridal vendors: come join us for a Wedding Professionals networking event and hear about a a new wedding planning website that builds on your reputation. Launched by a local Biznik, AvantBride.com is a Seattle based wedding directory that allows brides to refer and review their favorite vendors. We'll speak for five minutes, you can have a few minutes to introduce yourself to the group, and then enjoy open networking over yummy cocktails.

Make solid connections with other Bridal Bizniks while viewing the art at the posh Grey Gallery and Lounge. We'll enjoy $3 well drinks, draught beers, and house wine at this happiest of happy hours. Please note a 20% gratuity will be added to your tab because of the size of our group, however, Grey Gallery is gracious enough to allow personal tabs. Space is limited so RSVP ASAP.

    Why a financial planner at a wedding event you ask? Because too many marriages end over money issues, why not start things off right?

    Thanks for hosting it sounds fun!

    All the best, Anne

    I can only stay for about 45 minutes, as a videographer with a camcorder that can take pictures and video and a BFA from Boston University, I be interested to see who might be interested.

    Looks like I have to cancel...I thought I could squeeze in at least 45 minutes, but alas, even that will not work-oh sad! I hope there will be another all wedding vendor event soon in the future.
    I would certainly love to host one, if no one else is planning anything!

    Greetings! What a great idea! I'm on call to give a friend a ride from the Hospital so I may be a no show. If I can make it, I definitely will since it near my office in Capitol Hill.

    Thanks Laura and Sarah for putting this together. Too bad the debate seemed to diminish attendance, but it was a pleasure to meet all those who did make it. Maybe we can do another one after the first of the year.
