Kirstin, Lara and I arrived back to North Carolina late Saturday night after four fabulous days in Florida. It was all business though. So, don’t expect to see Kirstin with a bronze tan or Lara and I with freckles galore. We had a terrific {Social Media Workshop} and I would like to thank everyone who attended. It was wonderful meeting so many friends and being introduced to so many inspiring individuals in the wedding industry. (image at left by Rae Leytham Photography) Before our flight home on Saturday, the three of us visited Barnes & Noble where we met with local fans and SW supporters. We promise a run down post in a few days with lots of pics and details from the workshop and our BN event. Until then, here are a few exciting tidbits of news…

Oooo I’m so glad you picked New Calligraphy as one of your Bella Figura favorites! It’s particularly lovely.
Wow! You all are doing incredible things! Congrats on your continued growth and success!Thank you all for a wonderful workshop. It was incredibly insightful and I am still amazed by the wealth of information that was shared in a 2 hour workshop. It has changed the way I view social media and networking tools!
The Social Media Workshop was great. It was a lot of fun to meet Lara and everyone at the workshop. Can’t wait to see some of the fun photos!
