Wedding Blog
I arrived at the Ritz Carlton Cayman Islands around noon yesterday, worked by the pool until I got too hot (but I don’t miss that rainy NY weather), and enjoyed a fantastic welcome party on the beach designed by Michelle Rago, complete with fireworks!
Engage09 officially begun 30 minutes ago, and I’ll be live blogging throughout the day.
Cayman Islands time (1 hour ahead of EST)
8:45am - Rebecca Grinnals, the mastermind behind Engaging Concepts and the Engage conferences, gave her intro.
9:05am - Carley Roney of theknot is doing a presentation on wedding statistics based on a study they conducted in 2008. Some interesting facts: the younger the bride the bigger the wedding. 2/3 of couples have at least one signature element. Biggest area brides are cutting back in this economy: videographers and wedding planners in this economy. 15% use a wedding planner - almost half used “day of” only. 20% of couples have destination weddings (200 miles or more away).
