I am new to networking. It does not come
naturally to me and even when Im networking I
always think Im doing it wrong. Am I meeting
enough people? Oh God, I didnt even hear what
she said, its so loud in here, just smile and
nod and pretend you heard her name. Ill just
plop myself right over here at this corner table
and if people want to talk to me they can and if
not, then, I guess I will not talk to them
either. When I found PWG I was brand new to
the wedding space and knew I had to start doing
the whole song and dance that is networking.
Little did I know this wasnt your typical
networking event. Its half networking (like the
first 30 minutes) (and theres always an open
bar) (and youre surrounded by eager wedding
professionals,

• mostly female, who are feeling the same way you
  are) and half educational. Every luncheon hosts a
  speaker or two that discusses an array of topics
  (from contracts to Pinterest) and have honed in
  and crafter their said space in the wedding
  world. Its the best networking Ive ever been
  to!
• This months luncheon was planned by Linda Lyons
  of Lyons Events at The Vintage Rail in Fort
  Worth.
• This space was beautifully styled by local
  wedding vendors which is so awesome to see what
  each and every one come up with for the different
  luncheons around the metroplex. The Lace Bouquet
  styled the florals/centerpieces. Lawson Event
  Rentals took care of all the seating/place
  settings/table clothes/etc.

• I mentioned open bar above and boy did this
  bartending crew do an awesome job! DFW Bartending
  had two specialty drinks they were serving as
  well as beer, wine, whatever else you could think
  of! It was the perfect size for your wedding
  reception as it took up very little room and the
  woman working the event were great. Highly
  recommend!

• The meal was catered by Hard Eight BBQ and I was
  super excited to see their name on our lunch menu
  (created also by Linda Lyons other business
  Lyons Paperie ). I will sayyyyy in all honesty,
  the meal was great except for the chicken.
  Chicken is hard to serve at a big event (wedding
  especially) because you have to be careful not to
  dry it out and not give the whole event food
  poisoning from undercooking it. With our event
  they made sure it was dry enough to not really
  eat BUT! The salad, bread, potatoes and booooy
  that buttermilk pie were top notch.

• What would an event/wedding reception be without
  photographers, videographers, and a DJ to make
  the party a PARTY?! Our luncheon had the crews of
  Silver Bear Creative, Beatbox Portraits, and
  LeForce Entertainment providing great ambiance
  and documenting the entire afternoon. AND! I
  briefly made the video so theres proof of me
  being there! Huzzah!
