Blog Fete Day of Conference Recap

This is the final Blog Fete 2013 wrap up post which is bittersweet. This years conference was some kind of wonderful. We kicked things off with a fabulous mix and mingle which included several booth vendors that impressed the attendees and then spent an entire day hearing presentations that left us inspired and motivated.  This 2 day conference is jam packed with not only loads of information but amazing connecting abilities between attendees, presenters and sponsors.

Thank you to Renee Nicole Photography for capturing the entire weekend! Although we are missing a few ladies in this photo it's wonderful to have such a beautiful group shot of these talented ladies.  Be on the lookout for individual head shots shared by the attendees. Renee so graciously offered each attendee a professional headshot, yet another wonderful perk of Blog Fete 2013.

Until next year...

Blog Fete Mix and Mingle Booth Sponsor: Stella and Dot

I was thrilled to have Stella and Dot at our mix and mingle event.  Not only is their jewelry eye candy but our rep for the evening showed us some of the newest items. One of the necklaces can be worn a ton of ways and I can't wait to get my hands on that one!  It was an evening filled with style, wine and chit chat.  I'm beginning to think we should have the mix and mingle be a two day event.  Thank you to our sweet rep, Callan for showcasing Stella & Dot accessories with the 2013 attendees.

A special thank you to our event photographer, Renee Nicole Photography for capturing the stunning jewelry details.

Blog Fete Mix and Mingle Booth Vendor: Izea

We had a great variety of booth vendors during our mix and mingle portion of Blog Fete 2013 and Izea is a company we were very proud to have be part of that group!  Izea offers services that connect influencers and brands. If you're a blogger and haven't signed up for Izea you need to, head over and join now!

The three sweet ladies that joined us for the evening were wonderful! The jumbo purple pen is still in my purse, it grabs attention any time I use it.  If you're local the company is here in Orlando and we've been told they love visitors.  I can't wait to get a tour and visit with the lovely team again!

A special thank you to the Blog Fete photographer, Renee Nicole Photography for capturing booth vendor details.

Blog Fete Mix and Mingle Beauty Bar

It isn't a girls night unless there's some take-away beauty items, right? This year Oh Goodie Designs and Moodylicious Spa teamed up to offer our attendees a beauty bar.  The beauty bar was stocked with perfume, lip gloss, gold seashell candles and more!  These custom made items were made specifically for the Blog Fete gals which is simply too cool!  The custom Blog Fete tray's, which we displayed the perfume and lip gloss on, blew me away.  It was our honor to showcase these two talented ladies and their companies.  Make sure to check out Oh Goodie/Style Inspired and Moodylicious for more details on products and services offered. 

A special thank you to the Blog Fete photographer, Renee Nicole Photography, for capturing the beauty bar details.

Blog Fete Mix and Mingle Book Signing: Gourmet French Macaron Cookbook

The Blog Fete attendees were in for such a treat this year by not only getting their hands on a signed copy of the Gourmet French Macaron Cookbook but also by meeting the sweetest author ever. Mindy of Creative Juice created a phenomenal macaron cookbook and I was able to grab myself a copy and one for a special someone to receive this Christmas during the mix and mingle event. Not only were books available but so were delish macarons!  It was an honor having Mindy (who is now one of my most favorite people ever) at Blog Fete.  If you haven't grabbed a copy of her book, do so!

A special thank you to the Blog Fete photographer, Renee Nicole Photography for capturing the event details and book signing display.
