I finally met Mr. Preston Bailey at Engage 08 in Celebration, Florida.  This was certainly an experience and moment I will always cherish.  Preston Bailey was one of the presenters at Engage 08.  I was very honored when he sat at my lunch table to have  a chat before his presentation.  I am sure he heard my heart poundingJ. He is a very humble and warm person.  I brought him a souvenir in case I had a chance to meet with him one on one.  So you can imagine how pleased I was when he sat at my table.  After talking for a few moments, I took out the souvenir which was a “shot glass” of St. Kitts, and gave it to him.  He accepted and said he’d never been to St. Kitts and was happy to receive the glass.

 

During his presentation “Inside the Wedding Studio” which he shared with Marcy Blum, another esteemed wedding planner to celebrities; they shared their experiences and how they started their businesses.  The tips they shared, I certainly shared with my staff and I know we’ll use them to create more stunning and simply beautiful weddings.

 

What I was absolutely impressed about with Mr. Bailey was his ability to listen and be able to speak with everyone who shared their stories and when he agreed to speak with our head designer, Mr. Sean Greaves who was unable to attend Engage 08, I was absolutely thrilled and so was Sean.

 

Preston even autographed his latest book, Inspirations for Sean and a copy for me as well.  Thanks Preston, you certainly made my day as it was always my dream to meet you one day. 

So again a big thanks to Rebecca and Kathryn, the great ladies behind Engage 08.
