Whim Events Wedding 101

Twinkling lights, delicious bites, happy couples, exciting giveaways, and a plethora of wedding wisdom... that's exactly what I experienced at Whim Events' Wedding Planning 101 workshop. Whim Events welcomed attendees to a special workshop right in their very own studio that was as fun as it was informative! 

I have to admit, as a part-time member of team Whim, and an industry insider, I thought I knew it all... but Co-Founder Natalie Pinney taught all of us some new tricks that night! The information that was shared was beyond valuable. From creating a wedding timeline to budgeting and vendor negotiations, this was truly one of the most helpful wedding events I've ever attended.  

Whim also had some great partners involved in the evening, such as Katie Noble Photography, Chef's Table, Season to Taste, Gordon's Liquors, Flask & Funnel and Yennygrams Calligraphy. The food was delicious and their champagne toast was the perfect way to kick off the evening. 

If you're planning on tying the knot, and live in the Boston area, be sure to stay tuned for Whim's next workshop and consider them for your Big Day! Visit Facebook.com/WhimEvents for updates and information on all things Whim. Cheers!
