It's that time of year again! Hawaii's two most influential wedding/special events organizations come together to throw their annual joint party and networking get-together for wedding & special event professionals! Join us for an evening of great food, fun games, the annual Tabletop Design Contest, and much more! This is your opportunity to expand your circle of colleagues by meeting members of both organizations and getting your name out.
Don't forget to bring LOTS of business cards. You'll be passing them out all night!
