news + press :: networking meeting at the Dana Hotel

2014 is officially underway, and last month, our meeting was hosted by our newest venue-member, the Dana Hotel.  With beautiful views and a 3-course lunch, this meeting did not disappoint.

We heard from Cynthia Zatkin, of CZ Events.  She explained the evolution of her wedding coordination business and described in detail the special care and attention she offers her couples.  We also heard from La Valencia Hotel.  “La V” as it is being rebranded as, is in the midst of renovations and again, rebranding, so Bobby Fader, the Catering Manager there, described the plans, the work that has already been done, and what we can expect to see going forward from the hotel in general.

It was a great afternoon.  We are pleased to have the Dana as one of our members!

The Dana Resort on Mission Bay hosted Weddings of Distinction’s August luncheon.   While August is typically a very busy time for wedding vendors in San Diego, this month’s meeting had a great turnout, with over 20 in attendance.  The round-table discussion, while informal, gave those present the opportunity to share stories with the group and offer one another tips and tricks for managing the end-of-summer bustle.   A special thanks is due to the catering staff at The Dana, specifically Keith and Kaylee, for not only sharing their space with the group for this meeting, but for the great meal and the tours of the property afterwards.
