{Education} Wed Pro 2011

School? I couldn't get out of it fast enough (powered through college in 3 years flat). Every once in awhile, we wedding specialists like to get together and totally geek out about all things wedding. It's often nice to take a break and absorb ideas of how to better serve you, our brides. Fortunately for me, a great wedding conference was in Wichita on Sunday/Monday!

I packed my pen and headed to Wed Pro 2011.

Honestly, a post with no photos is a bit shocking. But I was so busy writing/taking notes, my fingers didn't have time for the camera!

I won't bore you with the details, but my most favorite speaker from the event was Susan Southerland. She has this super-handy Susan Southerland quiz to help you figure out which "type" of bride you are (I'm a Visionary, who'd have thought!). Knowing how you function helps you figure out how to go about planning your wedding. And knowing what kind of bride I have helps me to know how to best serve her.

It's nice to come away from a seminar with a bit of a "plan of action," so I thought I'd share a few of my goals with you:

1) Add 3 new "featured wedding" galleries to the Heartland Photography Website. (NOTE: since I wrote this, I've added 2 galleries ... only 1 more to go!)
2) Make some networking calls with other vendors (I admit, I've been procrastinating on those)
3) Identify the "Type" each of my brides is, which will help me to better serve her needs.

Go ahead, take the Susan Southerland quiz and leave a comment on which "type" of bride you are. I was honestly surprised at my "type" ... you might be, too!
