Hey folks! So, today was my second Chippewa Valley Wedding Professionals meeting at Unity Christ Center in Eau Claire, WI, and to top it off I also happened to be the photographer for this month’s meeting.
For those of you unfamiliar with what CVWP is, I will just share the mission statement straight from the website:

And of course, yours truly as photographer for the day. The highlights for me today were definitely the bridal dresses from Bella Nozze and the floral bouquets from Avalon. They were GORGEOUS. I was totally in awe. One of the floral designs reminded me of a birds nest, it was just so delicate looking and beautiful. The dresses were to die for, and incredibly unique. If you’re an area professional with a business to promote, I would highly suggest making one of the meetings, you learn a lot about local businesses that you weren’t aware of before, and there are tons of networking opportunities. Oh, and I also won a fabulous cookbook from the door prize drawing that I am dying to use! I’m not going to give you too much info though, if you want to know more, you’ll just have to come to June’s meeting! I’ll be there, and I would love to see your bright & shining face.
