About this event

Business • Other

Close out 2025 with the biggest vendor gathering of the year.

Join us at the stunning Riverbend Estate for a night dedicated to inspiration, community, and connection within the wedding industry.

We’ll kick off the evening with an exclusive guest speaker session:
“Standing Out in a Saturated Market” — how to build a thriving business without feeling the need to “fight” for clients. Learn how authenticity, collaboration, and smart positioning can help you shine in a competitive industry.

Afterward, we’ll transition into the Riverbend Estate Mansion for a celebratory vendor social. Expect:

  • Elevated small bites + interactive food stations
  • Open bar in the Estate’s speakeasy-style lower level
  • Opportunities to explore, mingle, and connect with peers across the wedding industry

This isn’t just networking — it’s a chance to reflect on how far we’ve come in 2025 and celebrate the successes, growth, and connections we’ll carry into 2026.
