Introducing The B-List!

This past weekend, I had the pleasure to attend the first-ever wedding blogger conference, the B List, organized by Vané of Brooklyn Bride and Anne of From I Will to I Do. It was a quick weekend trip for me out to Brooklyn, but I’m so glad I made the trip! It was so fun to meet all the other fabulous ladies behind some of my favorite blogs. These bloggers included:

Kristina from 100 Layer Cake
Liene from Blue Orchid Designs™
Vané from Brooklyn Bride
Ami + Rebekah from Elizabeth Anne Designs
Nole from Oh So Beautiful Paper
Luzel from iDiY
Emily from Once Wed Blog
Anne from Perfect Bound
Kelly from Santa Barbara Wedding Chic
Janice from The Bridal Wishlist
Janie from The Bride’s Cafe
Courtney from The Little White Book
Amanda from Vintage Glam Weddings
Bee from Weddingbee
Christy from What Junebug Loves!
Darci from With This Ring
Maria from {ritzy bee blog}

We started the day at Galapagos art space – which is an amazing space! We talked about the wedding blogging community, tips to help each other, and other issues we saw as a group. I learned a lot and I know we could have talked all day! Then we had a yummy lunch catered by Sterling Affair, and there was even a beautiful wedding cake by Mark Joseph Cakes.

After lunch, Vané and Anne had organized a fabulous vendor meet and greet. I had a great time talking with some of my favorite vendors and meeting lots of new ones. The photo below is Rebekah from Elizabeth Anne Designs, Me, and Kristina from 100 Layer Cake! We had so much to talk about!! The beautiful flowers were by by Seaport Flowers.

After the meet and great, Michele Preli (the editor of Brides.com) was nice enough to invite us to her house for drinks hosted by Swirl Events. It was such a fun day. We also got together again on Sunday for a brunch and more wedding talk. I will be posting more about some of the amazing vendors I met and sharing some more goodies throughout the week.
