Hawaii wedding professionals spent the evening networking, sharing, and learning at last Tuesday's meeting of the Oahu Wedding Association. Rick Egged, President of the Waikiki Improvement Association and the keynote speaker of the night, spoke about the changes to Waikiki that have occurred in recent years which ultimately will help revitalize the area for visitors and kama'aina (local residents).Attendees were also treated to an amazing spread of ono (delicious) appetizers and a variety of wines, courtesy of The Willows Restaurant.
Hawaii Wedding Professionals were also updated on future happenings with the association. Members were asked to contribute their time, talents, and resources to upcoming fundraisers like the HUGS Respite Program in December, as well as asked for their input on the direction of the association in the coming year.
Aside from the wonderful food and information, guests also took advantage of the numerous opportunities to network with many of the best wedding professionals on Oahu.
The association greatly appreciates the following individuals and companies for making last Tuesday's event a success:
- Rick Egged with the Waikiki Improvement Association, for sharing his stories, ideas, and his thoughts on the future of Waikiki;
- Keri Wood and her staff at The Willows Restaurant, for hosting the event; and
- All of the attendees, for coming out and supporting the association with your presence and participation.
The next meeting is in two weeks, on October 13, rather than typically at the end of the month. This will be the joint NACE Hawaii/OWA event. Click here for more information on this upcoming party. See you there!
