Hi Phil,
Just want to let you know again, that I’m very happy to be a part of your next show. Every show I’ve done with you has resulted in good leads. The brides seem to enjoy everything as well. Plus, you have a wonderful growing group of brides. Each time I participate the vender’s seem to be just as happy with the turn out.
Keep up the good work!

Hi Phil,
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for working so hard on the Orlando Wedding Professionals group. The soirees are BY FAR the best in the area. They’re such a blast!! Plus, I’ve met so many great vendors! Some who have been around for a while but with my busy schedule I’ve just never had a chance to actually speak with them. I’ve been so impressed that I’ve even added vendors to my referral list!
I’m so happy that I became a member.
Keep up all the good work!
Kind Regards,
Angela Bachelor – Buena Vista Palace Hotel & Spa
Phil,
The History Center is proud to be part of the Orlando Wedding Professionals. The soirees are fun and usually take place at new venues. Great opportunity to network with top wedding professionals.

Dear Phil,
Just wanted drop a quick note to express our appreciation for OWP, and all you do personally to make the association such a success. We have been in the Wedding Industry for more than 35 years. Over those years associations have come & gone, many have lost site of their original purpose, and in turn lost touch with their membership. OWP continues to impress us with its clear line of direction and long term plans to benefit its membership. It is unlike any association we’ve been apart of; offering true value, and most importantly the absence of the “business feeding frenzy” that develops in most group association. OWP provides a terrific platform to showcase our products and explore with other professionals in our industry in a fun, relaxed and energetic atmosphere. Last but not least the site provides a real value that represents the best of our peers and drives call and inquiries to our door.
Thanks for your continued efforts and support.
Best Regards,
Brittany Wasman – Maison & Jardin

“Central Florida has needed an organization of this caliber for a long time and we are so thrilled that Phil helped bring it to fruition! The Orlando Wedding Professionals gives the top event vendors and specialists a chance to come together and grow their business by getting to know the best people in the industry without politics and pettiness, just pure socialization, fun and top notch networking! We look forward to attending the meetings every month!”

Phil,
While so many of us have talked about it, you have done it. You put your time and effort into organizing monthly events, held in terrific locations with creative themes, where all of us can enjoy fabulous food and drink with no agenda other than networking and just having fun. I so appreciate and admire what you’ve accomplished and want to thank you, as well as the extraordinary team of Brandi & Jo, for all that you are doing. You took action; we all benefited.
Catherine Way – HarpStrings, Inc
Hi Phil!
“OWP has provided us a wonderful social outlet for networking with our colleagues in an exciting atmosphere! The themed events have been a great ice breaker for meeting new contacts. The structure has also allowed us enough time to catch up with old friends and re-establish our business relationships. We have experienced the work of some of Orlando’s most prestigious vendors, and plan on returning frequently to see what else OWP has planned for us!”
Have a great day! Emily – Charming Events
Hi Phil
Orlando Wedding Professionals is a great organization. I am proud to be a part of such an elite group of professionals in the wedding industry. I have been attending OWP’s networking events since its inception and became a member after finding that this was the group I wanted to associate my company with, and the people are very welcoming. Each and every monthly networking event/soiree has been excellently planned and executed with professionalism and fun in mind and it is a joy to attend and mingle with the other professionals in this environment. I truly appreciate OWP!
Best regards,
Melissa Bartley – Orlando Video Artistry, Inc.

“Being a member continues to provide positive results. This group truly works together as a team to improve the wedding industry. I am proud to be a part of this innovative concept.”
Christal Knowles-Feldman, CMP – Sunsational Weddings and Events, Inc.
Hi Phil,
I have been a member of OWP since the day it began. I was delighted to be a part of the organization representing the most prestigious wedding vendors in the Orlando area. With customer service and quality being the mission of my company and the vision of the OWP it was a perfect fit. Having the opportunity to be listed on their website has increased leads, which has increased sales. With OWP growing by creating the monthly networking events and the bridal show next year we definitely want to be involved in this amazing opportunity to meet quality vendors as well as qualified brides.
Dawn Roberts – Director of Sales – Arabian Nights Dinner Attraction
Hi Phil,
This year represents my 18th year working within the field of wedding entertainment. I’ve joined organizations, and participated in bridal shows. I can’t count the number of brides and grooms that have passed through my appointment books over the years. Advertising and the surge of internet promotion has helped make the job a little easier, yes. But the biggest reason I joined OWP was that one thing that has never changed…basic networking. No how advanced the marketing, or how educated the bride, in the long run it will always come down to confidence and handshakes. The member list has grown to include vendors whose business I appreciate, and I appreciate the opportunity to meet, talk, and be a part of an organization that would attract such great quality vendors. Look forward to seeing you at the next soiree!

Hi Phil
When we joined Online Wedding Professionals we enjoyed, and continue to enjoy, the opportunity to socialize and gather with other professionals in an informal setting, let loose and mingle with other vendors who not only do what you do but who can also offer advise, leads and put a face with a name. While working onsite at a wedding or function it is quite difficult sometimes to let your guard down, relax and socialize after all, you’re there to perform a service that you’ve been paid to do.
We also found Online Wedding Professionals (OWP) had a unique way of doing business, they are extremely laid back in their no pressure, no stress sales technique. Most companies leave you feeling as though you’ve missed the boat, OWP let’s you know it’s never too late, you’re always invited! Their service is top notch with a fee that is very minimal! I enjoy working with them and their team, I know it’s going to be a class act each time.
