Engage10 :: The Breakers

by in Main on

Hi y’all!  What a week! Emily and I were at the Engage!10 conference at The Breakers and a little somethin’ somethin’ hit news stands while we were there!  We’ve been so busy that we haven’t had time to soak it all in.  The love on Twitter is overwhelming!  Thank y’all SO MUCH for the amazing support.  We put our hearts and souls in V3 and we’re so glad you love it as much as we do!

We have a huge Engage recap and some fun surprises coming soon, but for now enjoy these great clips from Cloud Nine Creative.  Thank you Breakers, Rebecca Grinnals, Kathryn Arce, Trisha Hay and everyone involved in making this a magical week!  We were so honored to debut V3 in wedding paradise!

Day 1:

Day 2 + 3:

A quick shot from my iPhone of V3 and some Engage goodies.  This was my 5th Engage and they just keep getting better!  So overjoyed to attend, to learn, to spend time with great friends, to get fired up about inspiring brides to tell their unique love stories and to be a second-time speaker.  So much more goodness to come, y’all!  If you just can’t wait, check out my Facebook page for Engage10 pictures galore!

P.S. The new SW site launches very soon!  We’re a few days behind with all this excitement and coming home to very full inboxes of sweet messages, so we hope to launch next week.  Email Katharine for a special V3 launch discount on new site ads!

    I didn't realize all conferences had those ribbons that you attach to the bottom of your badge. We have them at my professional conference, too. The longer you're there, the more ribbons you seem to need. I'm up to 3 right now. :)

    While I have yet to flip through V3 (just returned from the honeymooon), I am quite jealous you were both able to attend Engage! It happened to fall right in the middle of our honeymoon. Looks like you gals had a great time, and have loved flipping through all of the photos!

We’re so so excited!  Tomorrow is the big day that V3 arrives on newsstands! SO, lots of folks have asked if we’re having a launch party.  Our schedules are so packed till Christmas, that we just don’t have time!  Soooooo…..

Tomorrow, we’re doing something a little different.  Emily and Lara will be at Engage10 celebrating at the big closing night gala and we want y’all to join us!  In celebration that is.  So, break out the champagne, put on your party tunes, give the cat some extra catnip, go have a fun dinner with friends, have some Krispy Kreme, an in-office dance party, hodown, a little jig in your car, or order up your favorite take-out and let’s all celebrate!  All over the South, tweet us how you are celebrating tomorrow night (pictures are a bonus!!!) with the hashtag #V3Launch.  One lucky celebrator (is that even a word!?) will be entered to win $50 in new iTunes and a whole bunch of y’all will win some fun surprises that we have up our sleeves.

So, get on it and start planning your V3 launch celebration for tomorrow night!  We can’t wait to [virtually] celebrate with y’all!

    As an event planner I have followed SW blog faithfully with daily visits to gain inspiration for our upcoming events, but I just got my FIRST EVER copies of the magazine in the mail since they are not sold in Southern Indiana. I now know what I have been missing! At times you might mistake the southern portion of our state as a southern territory since it is worlds different from Northern Indiana and many of our brides want a touch of southern elegance at their weddings. Southern Weddings Magazine does an amazing job at capturing, showcasing, and inspiring that SOUTHERN CHARM! I applaud the SW ladies for their amazing work on a fabulous product and will faithfully order all future copies.

    Just got my issue the other day and it's FAB! I love that you all still write a personal note! That's so AWESOME! It's BEAUTIFUL cover to cover! :)

    How did you make those bottom images rotate like that? Looks great!

Engage10 :: The Breakers

by in News on

Well, ladies and gents, it’s that time again.  Even with all of this craziness going on, Lara and I are picking up and heading to The Breakers in Palm Beach next week for a few days for the latest Engage wedding conference.  For those of you unfamiliar with the Engage events, they are twice yearly luxury wedding business summits where some of the most exciting people in the industry come together to learn and grow.  Lara has been several times before; this will be my first trip.  You can read a little more about Lara’s most recent experience on her blog here.

Now, would it be bad to say I’m almost as excited about our surroundings as the people I’ll meet? Feast your eyes on this:

Okay, okay, I guess Darcy Miller, Carly Roney (who I had an awkard encounter with in an elevator when I interned at The Knot, by the way — think she’ll remember me?!), Randy Fenoli, Sylvia Weinstock, Marcy Blum, Maria McBride, etc., etc., etc. can stand up to those stunning interiors and exteriors.  They are pretty fabulous, themselves, I suppose.  Oh yes, and that other speaker, Lara Casey, I hear she’s pretty fabulous, too.

In all seriousness, we are very much looking forward to meeting and reconnecting with all of the speakers and attendees in just a few days!  Will you be there?  Let us know in the comment section!

P.S. Lisa Johnson, the creative mind behind Ceci New York and a speaker at The Breakers, recently released her latest CeciStyle, focused complelely on the iconic property and her stationery inspired by it!  Check it out here.

    I would have loved to be there. Being a part of this would be so amazing for me right now. Its only an hour and a half from my house, but between needing new gear + my mortgage + and my student loans, it was not possible this year. To next year!
