I just wanted to say, thank you so much for an awesome event. This was my first expo with your organization and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. From the warm hospitality shown by the hosts and staff (Cindy and Marianne, you’re amazing), to getting a chance to meet great vendors, and lastly, getting the opportunity to engage with so many couples. If I could, I would follow your organization to every location just because of this experience. Peace and blessings to you all.
