Featuring: Maggie Daniels, Monte Durham, Carrie Wosicki, Rodney Bailey,"Real Life" Guest Lauren Holman,Paul Wilson, Welcome by Sarah Cissna and Moderator Toni Andrews
The wedding industry is hot and the economic impact is real. With several reality
TV shows and hit movies, multiple businesses and new start-up technologies to accommodate the “big day,” the wedding business is booming. Add to that
plenty of emotional components from angst to elation, and you have an
interesting study about social and family relationships, economics and culture.
Why do we spend so much time, money and emotion on a single event? What is
the impact on family relationships and finances? How can couples balance
starry-eyed dreams with practical realities? What impact do changing social and
cultural influences play? How does this giant industry affect local economies and jobs?
Be part of the discussion with our expert panel & "Real Life" guests!
NEW! Enter your name to play "Go To The Podium" a quiz game to get us primed for discussion.
