NW Wedding Professionals Event

Hello NW Wed Pro!

It’s been a whirl-wind month, hasn’t it?? The weather has been fantastic for wedding weekends. I’m sure you are busy, busy, busy.
Even at the busiest of times, it’s important to continue making quality connections in the industry. This time of year there are always brides scrambling to find vendors that are available. Perhaps you have a date still open. NW Wed Pro’s refer to each other every day. The best way to be the first on someone’s referral list is by attending the NW Wed Pro Networking Events once a month so that your company is always fresh on their mind.
Be sure to invite vendors that you’ve met recently at weddings too!

Next Event:

Wednesday, August 13, 2014 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm (check-in begins at 6:00 pm)
Knoll Crest Gardens Yvonne Knoll has created a garden paradise and a beautiful wedding venue. They are also the makers of Award Winning wines!
15505 SE TenEyck Rd.

Please join us for an evening of networking and fun. Great food and wine, a beautiful venue and the chance to connect with a lot of great wedding professionals. Invite a colleague to come along with you.

R.S.V.P. and put it on your calendar!

July Event Recap:
Sah-hah-lee Golf Course and & Event Pavilion hosted NW Wed Pro on July 9th in Clackamas Oregon. Along with a fantastic BBQ dinner, they had wine and cold beer to offer on that very warm evening. The Pavilion overlooks the golf course for the perfect setting for receptions, weddings and events.
Cookies, Cupcakes & More brought dessert for all to enjoy. There wasn’t a single crumb left over. Sooo good!
The entertainment from 6:00 – 7:00 pm was provided by Ubetcha Entertainment. Each guest received a $100 chip voucher to play at the tables. Roulette and Black Jack tables were a big hit! Ubetcha Entertainment provides everything you need for a casino experience.
Thank you Trevor West of Dancin Tunes for the educational presentation. Your introduction to the latest software and hardware products to keep our businesses organized was very helpful.

We had a lot of great prizes to give away that night. Here’s what people won and who donated the prize.

Gift Certificate from Sah-hah-lee Golf Course
Red Robin Gift Card from Cordial Events
Gift Basket from Ubetcha Entertainment
$20 cash from NWWP Network

Thank you everyone who came out in July. We look forward to seeing YOU and many others at the next meeting August 13th. RSVP now and get it on your schedule.

2012 Holiday Party


Hello NW Wed Pro! 
Just days until 2012 comes to an end. It was a very memorable year.  


T and Mandy greeted and checked everyone in.
The NW Wed Pro Holiday Party was a huge success. Hosted at the Tumwater Room in Oregon City, everyone contributed to make this a fun event. Photos have been posted on the NW Wed Pro Facebook page.

A huge Thank You to Darrell of The Tumwater Room AND Alimenti Catering for all of his hard work and hours putting this together. The space looked beautiful and the food and service was top notch.


Wonderful Staff of the Tumwater Room.

I’d also like to thank Eric of Chef du Jour for bringing fantastic food to the event even though he couldn’t stay for the party. He was swamped with catering jobs that night but still provided us with the entrée and appetizers. Wow, KUDOS to you!


Bust A Move, Dancin Tunes & High Fidelity "DJ Moves"
Our entertainment director for the evening was Craig of High Fidelity Entertainment, and boy did he ever entertain us! We had contests, games, prizes, dance lessons and lots of dancing.


Dancin Tunes PhotoBooth

To remember the evening, we all went home with fun photo booth pictures from Trevor at Dancin Tunes. The tables were decorated with holiday linens from Barclay Event Rentals and had center pieces created by Dream Team Events, Purple Iris Weddings & Events and Bella Giorno Events.

Throughout the evening we had a wonderful selection of wines by Buddha Kat Winery plus some wine provided by Radiant Touch Weddings. Dessert for the evening was by Seriouscake.com with delicious cake pops and cupcakes.


The floral displays by JBlooms made for lovely décor and also great door prizes at the end of the evening. Speaking of door prizes, thank you to everyone else that attended for bringing a door prize. We had such great donations from gift cards to wine baskets including two $50 gift certificates for Amadeus Manor, golf at Sah-Hah-Lee Golf Course, movie passes, Fred Meyer GC and much more.

We all had a great time with the White Elephant gift exchange. Everyone selected one gift then we voluntarily swapped with others if we wanted to. Interesting items were in some of those wrappings. LOL 

I’ve received so many compliments on this event saying that it was the BEST Network Association party of the year! Thank you for making this a great year for NW Wed Pro and I look forward to seeing each of you at our monthly meetings in 2013.

I will notify you soon of the January 9th or 16th location.
In February we will meet at Sah-Hah-Lee Golf Course on the 13th.
