Hey wedding planners, it’s time to party! Because this week on Wedding Industry Insider, we’re talking about the value of vendor parties and how to become a connector in your community.

This isn’t buttoned-up networking, and it’s a far cry from coffee meet-ups. But it could radicalize the way you plan weddings and wow clients. 

And to talk about this, we’ve got Darren Keala with us. Darren owns Events by Darren Keala and is the Vice President of Maui Wedding & Event Association. 

For years, Darren threw vendor parties and invited everyone in the industry, including competitors, total rookies, and other pros from his area. The result? A connection that extended throughout the industry, and weddings that were fun to work. After all, once vendors have partied together, they bring that familiarity and spirit to every event.. 

Listen to the episode to hear all about partying as a wedding pro, and stay tuned for more great advice from Darren, an experienced wedding planner AND florist. Here’s what you can look forward to this week:
