MWEP Event in Kalamazoo

On Wednesday evening, White Dress Events and TaDa held the first Kalamazoo MWEP (Michigan Wedding and Event Professionals) get-together. A little over 30 of the area's vendors came out to Epic Bistro for a night of networking and mingling. I had a great time meeting and socializing with these incredible vendors!

Below are some photos from the event, courtesy of Melissa Gregersen Photography.
