** Who likes free drinks? I do! **
When's the last time you told someone that you attend ABC meetings? Better than that, when's the last time you invited someone to attend an ABC meeting? Starting with this Networking Mixer, for every guest you invite that actually ATTENDS an ABC CFW meeting, you will receive one brand spankin' new ABC CFW BUCK {a $5.00 buck to be specific}. These BUCKS can be used toward the admission to future meetings, or to purchase a drink at a future meeting! So if you invite 5 people? That's $25 in BUCKS baby! This is open to both members & non-members!! Sorry! Guest cannot be a family member {husband/wife/sister/niece's estranged son's son etc..} and cannot have attended an ABC meeting in the three months prior to the meeting you are inviting them to. So if you want credit for inviting someone to the July meeting, they cannot have attended October, January or February meetings to be eligible! Questions? Ask on the CFW FB page!

** Why yes, dahling, it is easy to become an ABC member! **
Whether you are a wedding planner, coordinator, consultant, designer, florist, photographer, graphic artist, baker, chocolatier, venue representative, caterer, jewelry designer, travel agent, hotel representative, officiant, hair & makeup artist, rental company, DJ, or even a person that makes little baby tuxedos for dogs...YOU can join the ABC!

ABC offers memberships to planners and to vendors, and yes, it is true, ABC members sometimes do get special little bonus treats like oh...an all inclusive trip to someplace lovely & exotic like Turks & Caicos for $399, AIRFARE INCLUDED!! Plus the whole "we've been around since 1955 and are the largest and most respected bridal association in the WORLD" thing kinda helps! As the esteemed Martha would say..."it's a good thing". :)

If you sign up for membership while in attendance at one of our lovely monthly meetings, we will waive the application fee! Just for you. Because you're good enough, you're smart enough, and gosh darn it, we like you a whole lot!
