I am hoping this message reaches the partners who started this Network. I want to say "Thank You" for bringing together something I didn't know was out there. Before your event, I had been to many straight wedding expos and although people were nice, it just felt different. I really enjoyed my experience at your expo, and I was sitting in the front row with my partner listening to you both talk and the incredible speaker you had there who made me cry with the story of not being able to help her partner in the hospital... I wanted to come up and talk to all three of you but my shyness kept me from doing so. 'Thank you' to both of you does not begin to describe how much I am thankful for all you have done for our community. Your hard work, sweat, tears, boldness and baring your souls does not go unnoticed. I admire you all so much.

A standard booth space measures 8' in width by 6' in depth. Need more room to shine? Premium spaces also available.
Each exhibitor footprint includes a standard 6' banquet table, linen and two chairs. -No pipe & drape, as we wish to create an open and welcoming atmosphere.
