P.S. - Who ELSE do you know who should be attending AWP? Anyone who you share wedding business ideas with is someone we'd like to meet.  They won't know about AWP unless you tell them.   Send an email today to one, two or three people.  If you'll copy memberchair@weddingprofessionals.org we will also try to follow up with them!

Simple Invitation to Join AWP (copy and paste text below):

I wanted you to know about the organization I use to get wedding ideas and professional wedding contacts - Association of Wedding Professionals - it meets monthly for dinner on the 4th Tuesday of the month for networking and business tips.   The group has been a good value to me; your cost to join would be $25 for the application fee, and $125 for annual dues.  Use this link to find out about my business club and consider coming into the group:

It's a good group of people, and you'd be a great addition! Be sure to mention that I recommended you so that your application will be processed quickly, as promised.
