The Flower Guy Bron at The Quadrangle Club - A WIPA Chicago Event

Written by Curator Erin Martin of ECBG Cake Studio

At our last WIPA Chicago event at The Quadrangle Club of University of Chicago we were honored to welcome The Flower Guy Bron to talk all about referability, something we could all use lessons in!

I love being able to bring value to not only my clients, but also my fellow wedding vendors, and that is why it was so appreciated to hear from guest speaker, The Flower Guy Bron, at our event in June. He touched on bringing more value, asking the ask, give love to get love, and being front of mind for people. His energy was contagious and his knowledge was so helpful! I was lucky enough to sit next to him at dinner following his talk, and it was such a pleasure to get to know him better.

This event was super special because we invited some new elements that went over really well! Typically we host the event at one location with cocktails and networking, followed by an educational speaker and then dinner. This time we had an after party at Rubenstein Forum Venue at The University OF Chicago AND after the party we hosted a room block for people to spend the night at The Sophy. Each one of these locations were so lovely and welcoming, and we were so thrilled to finally have an event in Hyde Park!

Ashley Frye of Ashley Frye Studios made beautiful stationary items like the place cards, exquisite menus, and bar sign. Again, can we hear some commotion for the MENUS?!

Northern Décor provided gorgeous floral arrangements for each location, and Beatmix Music graced us with their live music throughout the night which made for the best ambiance.
