What you can expect attending the annual workshop

Are you feeling like you are stuck at times? Not sure where to go with your biz next or who even to talk to about it?

The Collective Vow Workshop is where your growth matters as much as your work. A lot of industry events focus ONLY on growing the business aspect, but you are more than your business. It’s time to give yourself a moment to step back, reflect inward and realize how much of a visionary you are. This is a safe space created for wedding pros who “get it” and aren’t afraid of opening up their hearts and their mind!

Yes, it’s a wedding industry workshop—but really, it’s a space to reconnect with why you started, breathe life back into YOU and your business, and experience the kind of growth that actually sticks. Come for the inspirational content, stay for the connection.

What’s this about?

  • This is for every wedding pro—whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned creative craving new energy. Planners, florists, photographers, beauty artists, designers (and everyone in between)—if you're in the industry and ready for aligned growth, you belong here.

  • You’ll leave feeling inspired in ways you didn’t expect—through vulnerable conversations, unexpected moments, and a room that feels like a breath of fresh air. Think: boujie sit-down lunch, time to truly connect, a happy hour to exhale, and curated goodies waiting at your seat to pour back into you and your business.

  • Yup, let’s get to it! The early bird ticket is $517—but how do you price the kind of energy that carries you through the year ahead? This is an investment in your clarity, your creativity, and the relationships that not only fuel your business—but the way you show up for your couples, and for yourself.

  • Scroll down, secure your seat at the table, and get ready for a day that’ll shift everything. You’ll have an option to add an overnight if traveling in from out-of-town! Once you’re in, you’ll be officially part of our 2026 community & communication on event details will hit your inbox as we get closer!

You give so much - this where you receive.

Why? Because why not? We are in the service industry and seriously some of the hardest working creatives out there, making dream weddings come true. You need time for YOU.

The jist of
the day.

This is your space to slow down, soak in inspiration, and reconnect—with yourself and your community.
