Networking group at Sah-Hah-Lee Golf Course

Hello NW Wed Pro!

Spring is on its way. I love those days where it is sunny and beautiful one minute then a sudden downpour the next. Five minutes later it’s sunny again.





Last week we all enjoyed some of that spring-like weather at Sah-Hah-Lee Wedding & Events pavilion for the monthly NW Wed Pro Networking Event. Before the sun went down completely we were able to view the beautiful patio, balcony, driving range and putt-putt golf course. The evening was a success with the help of Barclay Events (beautiful table linens and décor), Bistro Catering (delicious dinner buffet), Wicked Delights Bakery (Valentine themed dessert bar) and Propel Businessworks (Jamie Teasdale guest speaker). 

This meeting was a wonderful opportunity to meet and talk with the owners and representatives of these companies. We learned of the golf course’s family history and also how versatile a venue it is for weddings and events. The owners, Steve & Tracy Lisac, are fun, friendly and hospitable. (they even hosted the wine bar for the evening) One lucky winner of the door prize walked out with FREE GOLF!

Jamie Teasdale gave us a very helpful presentation on Branding, Social Media, Custom Apps and connecting all of our medias together. Many of our members have already signed up with Propel Businessworks to handle much of that for them. Contact Jamie at Jamie@propelbizworks.com to discuss your business needs.



 Our 2013 membership just keeps on growing. At the meeting we had 3 more businesses sign up and one more came in the mail. Welcome Portland Catering Company, Pacific Crest Grand Ballroom, A Beautiful Ceremony and Born 2 Dance Productions to the NW Wed Pro family. We currently have 43 wedding and event companies in NW Wed Pro.

We hope to hold more workshops in the future for the opportunity to sit down with our laptops and implement the things we learned at the meetings and help each other apply the tools to their social media and sites.

These workshops will give you the opportunity to get one on one help and also share YOUR knowledge with other. We will also LIKE each other’s Facebook Pages and connect on other social media sites. Please join us if you can. Contact Nina Roberts at info@scottandninaroberts.com
