Meet The Wedding University Professors

We are really thrilled to introduce to you our fabulous professors for The Wedding University 2o1o! Most of them had taught at our inaugural university earlier this year, and they are extremely excited to be invited back. They have been working hard to create new content for their presentations, taking to heart the comments from each student evaluation from this year. If you are newly engaged, and would like to learn the ins and outs of wedding design and wedding planning to help you make wise decisions, you definitely want to attend The Wedding University on January 31, 2010! Under the elegant setting at the Four Seasons Silicon Valley, you will get to hear valuable tips from top experts in their fields. They will cover a variety of important topics in detail, such as:

1. Why is there such a big range in pricing for photographers, and how do you select the right one for yourselves?

2. After going through all the magazines and blogs for inspiration, how do you nail down the right design for your own wedding and how do you thread elements throughout the wedding to make everything look and feel cohesive?

3. How do you create a realistic budget, and be able to stick to it?

4. How do you create a wedding day timeline to flows well, to ensure that you and your guests will have a wonderful experience?

5. What are some cost saving tips when it comes to choosing your wedding flowers?

6. What are elements that you must consider, when thinking about the lighting for your wedding?

7. What do different textures of musical instruments sound like, and how do you determine the number of musicians or type of musicians you should have at your wedding venue?

8. How do you sit, stand, and walk gracefully in your wedding gown?

.....and much more! You will get information that is not commonly found in magazines or anywhere else. There will be absolutely no 'selling' going on, just teaching from our professors.

In addition to all the useful tips and information you will get, you will also have a really fun time sampling delicious food from the Four Seasons Hotel, learning to dance from the fabulous Cynthia Glinka, and be part of a drawing for a 3 night stay at a luxurious Four Seasons resort for their honeymoon!

To keep our classroom sizes small and intimate, we are capping our event at 150 students. Please register early to reserve a spot.
