Saundra Hadley | Always Planned - Elegant Weddings and Events, Full Service Event Planning Company with locations in Lexington, KY and Louisville, KY. Lexington Wedding Planner.

Always Planned hosted the June 2009 KY ABC Meeting and we had a fabulous turnout!

Lantern Centerpieces

Our meeting was held at Spindletop Hall from 11am-3pm. This was my first event to be held at Spindletop and all I can say is WOW! Of course it is stunningly georgous, but their service is equally impressive. I highly suggest you look into Spindletop Hall for your next corporate event, gala, or wedding. And as usual Always Planned can be there to make sure your event is even more fabulous!

OK on to the details. Our Speaker was Saundra Hadley, with Planning… Forever Events. She is such an amazing lady bursting with personality and knowledge. The topic of the meeting was How to Close The Deal – Sales Methods for the Wedding Industry. We had approx. 40 people in attendance and everyone from planners, florists, caterers, hotels, venues and even bakeries. Saundra did a fantastic job reaching points with everyone and showing how everything she touched on affects our business. Everyone in the industry simply MUST hear what she has to say.

We also had some wonderful event sponsors! A special THANK YOU goes out to each of you.

I have a huge passion for woman business owners! I love the fact that woman are smart and strong. I love that woman can handle any situation they face, refuse to give up and are able to learn from every experience. I love being a woman and owning my own business and I love being around other woman that feel that same fire to succeed.

Eventology 2009 was exactly that situation!

I had the pleasure to attend with my dear friends Sarah – owner of IDo Signature Events, Leona – owner of Lasting Impressions and Alicia and Heather – sales and catering from Belterra Resort Casino and Spa.

There were three amazing speakers:

Liene Stevens of Blue Orchid Designs and The Smart Planner
Saundra Hadley of Planning Forever Events
Terrica Skaggs of Fabuluxe, Inc. and iWed – International Network of Wedding Designers

Who covered topics such as Sales Methods for the Wedding Industry, Nurturing Your Relationships with Clients and Marketing in a Post-Modern World. When we left we could not stop talking about how we are going to change the way we interact with our clients to provide even more of a luxury experience in planning their weddings and events.

We had such a great time and are already looking forward to Eventology 2010! And I just have to add it to my Love-it folder!
