Thank you so much, I really enjoyed the luncheon. I am trying to "find my way" to networking the winery and its not an easy niche to find. This luncheon seemed to be a great match for us! I plan on coming again.

It was great to meet you as well! Thank you both so much for hosting such great luncheons. I've never been to a networking event that ran so smoothly, and really got the chance to speak with others. I was a little nervous to go without really knowing anyone, but it was so well worth it.

It was great finally meeting all of you and putting a face with the two that worked so hard on getting me "up and going" in The Perfect Wedding Guide. I had a blast at the luncheon! The response to my product and how we all "intertwine" was way more than I ever expected! I'm very pleased that the luncheon you have chosen for me to be the "Limelight" display is in Winston, where I live, and look forward to attending. Thanks so much for all that you do! See you the next time!

Hi Gail,
I hope you are having a lovely day. It was a pleasure meeting you yesterday. Thank you for making me feel right at home, especially because it was my first luncheon. I must say I really did enjoy myself. Everyone was so friendly and inviting. I did place the wedding guide books out on the lobby of the gym where everyone can see. Also I did get to take a look at one and I absolutely loved it. It's really a very helpful guide.

What a magnificent gathering and so many excellent representatives. The meal and fellowship were magnificent. The tour had my creative juices flowing. I look forward to the next luncheon and the opportunity to network with those that I didn't get to speak with today! Thank you!

Dear Gail,
Thank you so much for the luncheon yesterday! It was so well done! The speaker was very informative as well as humorous. The topic could not have been more appropriate for my business and I am sure it was helpful to my fellow PWGers. The food was excellent. I really enjoyed the entire event. Bravo!!! Thank you for bringing this wonderful service to us every month. I look forward to our luncheons in the future.
Warmly,

Gail,
I wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed the Triad Wedding Guild luncheons this past year. I appreciate your willingness to start this wonderful networking opportunity for our wedding industry partners. The opportunity to visit the different locations each month, enjoy delicious food, network with my industry partners to know what's "new" with their business and their services has been a true benefit! As a sales professional who has been working in this industry for over 22 years, I have come to know and appreciate the great "art" of networking and building relationships with other industry providers. Those great relationships have not only brought me wonderful friends in the industry but have helped me increase my sales for 2005. I look forward to moving onward and upward with this great group in 2006. I hope others in the area will take advantage of this outstanding networking opportunity and join us for our next meeting.

The Wedding Guild has provided the perfect opportunity to develop and strengthen relationships to ensure the perfect wedding experience. I have been impressed with the energy level, referral base, and extent of support each member contributes. This organization produces results!

I had a fabulous time at the last luncheon. It was a great opportunity to meet new wedding professionals as well as to get to know others better. Improving industry relationships is key and PWG helps you do that. I will definitely be attending more luncheons. Thank you PWG!

I did enjoy the luncheon and getting to check out the King's Daughters Inn. The food from the Q-Shack was great, but way too much for lunch! Angel's presentation was very informative as well. I will definitely try to do this as regularly as I can.

Dear Gail,
Thank you for a wonderful luncheon and a great speaker! Angel was able to

do properly. I will definitely call him. Great program!!!! Sincerely,

I am so glad that I attended the recent luncheon. This was my first time and I had a great time. Everyone I met was very friendly and seemed genuinely pleased to be there. It was gratifying to be surrounded by so many others who share in the same industry and goals to succeed. Thank you so much for the invitations. I hope to attend future lunches.

I had the luck and joy to win one of the door prizes at the PWG lunch in May. It was a white chocolate cheesecake with a fudge brownie crust made by Moses T's Home Cooking, a catering company in Burlington. It was 6 pounds of pure goodness - creamy, rich, sweet but not too sweet, and smooth. My Sweetheart, Ruben, and the other 6th grade teachers at McDougle Middle School in Carrboro were lucky to share it, too. They smiled for the first time in days, delighted in being nurtured in this sensual, delicious way. The cake is now long gone and was much appreciated. It was a generous gift, and obviously a labor of love.
Thank you Moses T's Home Cooking, and Thank You PWG!
Sincerely,
Rev. Robin Renteria
Hi, Jaime.
I always have a great time at the PWG luncheons. There's an enjoyable and eclectic group of wedding professionals in the Triangle who regularly come to the luncheons. I've learned a lot from the connections I make when networking with these professionals. They're always friendly and willing to help build business with each other. Come join us!
Julie Jones

I have been attending the PWG luncheons for abour 2, maybe 3, years now. I always enjoy meeting new wedding vendors and visiting with those I see frequently at the luncheons. These gatherings are a great informal way to get to know other wedding service providers outside the busy setting of a wedding when we are all "at work." I have made so many friends at the luncheons and it is easy for me to call on them on behalf of brides who need their services because having gotten to know them better I know ho they work and can trust them. I have received many referrals as well from PWGers who sent couples to me who needed an officiant. The speakers always give me insitghts, tips and opportunities to improve my services and marketing. Thank you for providing this invaluable service to our industry!
Rev. Kayelily Middleton

Thank you for continuing with the Triangle Wedding Guild luncheons. They are truly a unique chance for vendors to mingle. I have made many contacts through these luncheons. PWG does a great job choosing various vendors and locations for the luncheons. As my business grows, I will be looking to improve my advertising presence with PWG.

Everyone knows that networking with other professionals in your industry is a lifeline to any small business. By attending monthly luncheons hosted by the PWG I was able to network with other wedding professional vendors which has proven to be very beneficial. In particular, I worked with a bride who wanted to get married with only two weeks to plan the wedding event for over 100 guests. I simply contacted vendors associated with PWG who were more than willing to participate on short notice and deliver a host of services for my client. The end of the story was a very happy bride, beautiful wedding and proof in the power of networking.
