I don't know about you, but with a new year fastly approaching I have made a promise to myself that I will do more of the things I love. One of these things is meeting with other fabulous humans in the flesh! and enjoying a hot (uninterrupted!) cuppa and making new connections!

It is where I get my energy and inspiration from, listening to other peoples story and how they navigate the world of being their own wedding boss. I just love it! and passionately feel that we are always better together as a community of wedding suppliers championing and cheerleading each other on. As we all know, it can be bloody hard at times!
I am SUPER excited to be hosting a series of wedding supplier meet-ups over the Winter months in 2023 called 'The Boho Bride Guide Gatherings'.

Each TBBG Gathering will give you the opportunity to meet & mingle with fellow wedding suppliers looking to connect, collaborate and support each another in our wedding business ventures, all within a super relaxed setting.

FAQ's
What Happens at Each Wedding Supplier Gathering?

Our meet-ups will be a very relaxed affair, and I have chosen some lovely venues to meet at. As part of your ticket, a hot beverage will be included, as well as a very warm welcome from me, and the option to take part in a few low key activities to enable you to meet with as many new wedding suppliers as possible and make sure they are aware of your fabulous wedding business.

Who can Attend a TBBG Gathering?
You are able to purchase your ticket and attend any one of the TBBG Gatherings across the country.

You do not need to be an approved supplier to join us, it would be amazing to see as many wedding suppliers at our events as possible, whether you are just starting out, or have been established for some time. Everyone is welcome! ​

Is my Gathering Ticket Refundable?
Purchased tickets are non-refundable, however if you are unable to make the date, your ticket can be used at another TBBG Gathering in the future.

Let's Kickstart our 2023!


What are Wedding Business GROW Workshops?
As wedding suppliers, we become so busy working ‘IN’ our business, running around sorting everything to provide a great service to our couples. We often don’t set aside dedicated time to work ‘ON’ our business, to set up for success and build the infrastructure needed to take our businesses to the next level.
This is where my virtual and ‘in person’ GROW Workshops are design to give you the help you need!
Each session is aimed at enabling you to tackle specific challenges we all face in the first 3 years of business. 

From attracting our target wedding audience, to nurturing our online relationships, building that all important trust,  to closing each booking and confirming with a deposit. Through to, how we manage our relationship with our couples on the lead up to their special day, how we surprise and delight our couples on their big day, and finally how we gain testimonials and referrals from clients we have provided an outstanding service to. 

Each GROW Workshop is jam-packed with LIVE tutorials delivered by Jen, and broken up into straightforward step-by-step activities you are able to complete within the session. Each GROW Workshop is accompanied by a Workbook for you to keep, so you can implement your learnings when you head back home. 

On each of the break out sessions, you will have the opportunity to connect with fellow wedding suppliers on the Workshop and share experience and learnings with each other. As after all, we are always better together!

What the learners had to say...

'Attended a great session today, lots of inspiration and ideas. And we love Jen’s enthusiasm for supporting wedding businesses - can’t wait to see what the next session will be!!' - Caroline Smith  https://gertlusheventbars.co.uk/
'I attended Jen's Networking event and WOW it was amazing. Jen shared so much valuable content with us all about Blogging. This is an area that I was struggling with in my business. I learned so much that I can use to help me with not only the content creation but also how to schedule that content and promote it on all the different social media platforms too. I am so excited to be joining in on the next networking event early next year too. If you are needing a warm, helpful and totally all round FAB-U-LOUS business Growth Coach, you are in the right place.

My business has gone from strength to strength with Jens help and she is the best cheerleading growth coach to all of us in her Supplier Referral Network Goup that I am so honoured to a part of. We meet once a month with other like-minded wedding suppliers and we all benefit greatly from each others wisdom and input when discussing the topic that has been picked by Jen for us to work on during the month. I cannot recommend her highly enough and I credit her for helping me to be where I am today. Thank you Jenn !' - Jacki Clement https://weddingcelebrantcornwall.co.uk/

'Jen is the most welcoming and knowledgeable and real coach. She knows her trade intimately and makes it easy to understand how to implement her advice and suggestions. I would work with Jen every day if I could! She’s such a positive person but gets how the reality of running your own business is HARD and doesn’t shame you into not working on it 24/7 if you’re not in the place to be able to. Love Jen and all her work 💛' - George Halse  https://www.thebohobrideguide.com/hestis-and-iris-ceremonies.html

So professionally run in a beautiful venue and I came away feeling completely inspired! I was able to network with other wedding businesses, learn heaps about blogging for business and enjoyed some lovely refreshments. If you are considering working with Jen or attending an event then I would highly recommend it!' - Victoria Jones https://www.tractorsandcream.co.uk/

'It was fabulous to eventually meet the laughing, energy powerhouse that is Jen! Her infectious enthusiasm is only matched by her obvious and extensive knowledge in the area of online promotion, especially in the area of wedding businesses!! I would thoroughly recommend her!! Blessings Nixie 🙌' - Nixie James-Scott https://www.unique-ceremonies.co.uk/
'I was so pleased to attend the south west wedding suppliers networking and training event that Jen hosted at Higher Holcombe. It was such a boost to my wedding business to be able to meet other wedding business professionals in such a beautiful location. As well as the networking opportunities, there was a series of workshops on how to make a content creation system based on blogging. I found this really useful as it helped me to really focus on what I can do to not only promote my own business but to be helpful to the couples who might interested in what I offer. I liked being able to see how other wedding supplier professionals are building their own plans. It was also great being able to connect with possible guest bloggers! I am hoping that will build my reputation as well as being mutually beneficial from a business point of view. Highly recommend!' - Joanna Tomlins https://higherholcombe.co.uk/

'I can thoroughly recommend Jen to everyone who is struggling with developing their on line business presence. She has the ability to take even the most complicated (to me) subjects and break them down into bite size sections, and then explain those sections in every day, real English rather than technical jargon. She has encouraged and cajoled me to tackle things I never thought I'd be able to do, and do the things I was ignoring but knew I should get done.' - Sara Price https://www.sarapricecelebrant.co.uk/
'Jen is a marvellous coach. She has boundless energy and enthusiasm and is a wonderful motivator. She's helped me to get on and do the stuff that I'd been procrastinating about for ages.
