We also wanted to share a FEW of the heartfelt comments sent our way following the event:
“You produced a professional event with tremendous following and you delivered! The best part of the day was the networking opportunity! Wow, what a great room of industry pros. I met several people I will definitely keep in contact with! It was awesome, high-impact, and relevant to just about everyone in the room. You left me wanting more….much more!” --Warren Dietel, Owner/CEO of Puff ‘n Stuff Catering
“Home run!!! I'm engaged!!” -- Ed Culp, The CVP Experience
“You have no idea how wonderful and timely the event was for me. It was really enriching both personally and professionally. I learn so much from the both of you that I cannot begin to thank you enough. I made so many great contacts and have not ever had a such a successful networking experience.” --Nicole Cozier, Director of Catering, Celebration Hotel
“THANKS FOR AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE! My head is still spinning, with the amount of information, ideas, knowledge and networking that happened at Engage!08. I am at a loss for words to truly express how incredible, uplifting and extraordinarily ‘WOW!’, Engage!08 was! It was far beyond my high expectations and I am sure all of the attendees will agree with me. Never have I attended a conference, symposium, trade show, whatever you want to call it, (and I have been attending them for over 15 years) and come away feeling like I did.” -- JoAnne Brown, Owner/President Celebrations Ltd. Grand Cayman
“Thank you again for producing this incredible event. It was such a phenomenal day to be inspired, connect with wedding industry professionals and network. I especially loved the adorable touches such as the well-branded gift bags and your apron!! You need not conduct a topic on the power of branding when the entire day was an example!!” -- Lisa Aballo – National Director of Marketing, The Knot and WeddingChannel
“Wow. My head is still spinning from this week! What an amazing event. This was by far the most inspirational, information, interesting, engaging, invigorating...event I've been to (in any industry!)! The size and quality of attendees and speakers was a huge plus. I felt like I could learn and connect with everyone there.” -- Laura Marcusse; Vice President & Director of Marketing ADORN Brides
“The event was SO incredible and you are so, so, so inspiring to all of us that is was clearly a big hit!” -- Harmony Walton, Editorial Director Get Married TV and owner of The Bridal Bar

"...What I experienced that day [at engage!08] was probably one of the most memorable days of my life so far (other than the birth of my children of course).
