THE RIGHT WEDDING BOOKINGS FOR YOUR VENUE,
increase your wedding sales & elevate your wedding offer.
Even if your marketing budget is seriously tight and your team small….
Behind the doors of this powerful live event, you’ll find the do-able strategies, connections and support you need to raise your venue’s profile and supercharge your success.
It’s easy to get stuck in a rutof doing the same old marketing and sales activities
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE SPINNING MANY PLATES AND WEARING MANY HATS.
Stepping away from the desk and investing in fresh knowledge can be hard in more ways than one (leaving a busy venue office is never easy, I know). Yet, those who’ve invested in themselves and joined my training programmes always leave with an unparalleled bounce in their step, a renewed passion and focus as well as confidence in fresh strategies, that when implemented, add tens of new beautiful weddings to the bottom line smoothly and easily.
So, after rave-reviews!

GEORGIAN TOWNHOUSE IN CENTRAL LONDON
Central London’s RSA House plays host to this third edition of Wedding Spaces Going Places LIVE.

A wonderful place to be inspired with fresh learning I’m sure you’ll agree. This is a timeless and elegant location, a highly successful London wedding venue led by a passionate team; I’m thrilled they are opening their doors to you, their fellow venue teams.

I KNOWthat you have the most incredible venue
and a passionate, hard-working venue team,

I’m privileged to see this transformation happening regularly on my programmes and I am thrilled to be sharing it here with you at Wedding Spaces Going Places LIVE.
I’d bedelighted to see you there!
