WEDDING & EVENT FUNDAMENTALS CLASS

CONGRATULATIONS

Wedding and Event Fundamentals Class
Winter 2008

The students who attended the Wedding and Event Fundamentals class at Blue Ridge Community College were given the opportunity to learn about many segments involved in planning a wedding or special event. They gained knowledge starting with how to develop a budget with a bride and groom to understanding the key elements in creating an unforgettable event.

Each class was unique in its approach in teaching the group which best practices to use in the event planning industry. Several prominent guest speakers provided the class with tips and suggestions on partnering with vendors and working with clients to ensure a seamless event. One highlight of the course was the field trip to the Kenmure Country Club where the staff welcomed us with refreshments, a site tour, and an informative question and answer session.

I could go on continuously about all of the experiences we had during class but there is not enough blog space available. If you would like to find out more about the class and its upcoming schedule please contact me at lisagmcmillan@msn.com and I will be happy to discuss it with you.
