Over the summer PSWEP has created a communications program with our new communications partner, Flair Creative Services (Flair).  We are excited to be working with Flair, to establish a series of  communications that will inform, inspire, and continue to show the value that PSWEP brings to our members.

Currently, communications will come in the form of emails and consist of:

• eBlasts – dedicated topic information for Association members
• Newsletters – providing a monthly update on Association and industry happenings and trends
• Quick Notes – providing tidbits of information and quick reminders

These communication tools are designed to provide:

• informative and interesting content, as it relates to happenings of the Association
• showcase PSWEP members and their products and services
• keep you on top of what’s trending in the wedding and event industries
• keep you up to date of time-sensitive Association information
• and a host of other useful items!

We hope that our members and the interested public will enjoy these new communications and find the information helpful and engaging.

If you have comments or suggestions for our newsletter, or other communications, please direct them to PSWEP marketing chair, at beinspired@weddingspalmsprings.com, or our new communication partner, Flair Creative Services, at getcreative@flaircreativeservices.com

Trio Restaurant in Palm Springs was the host of the PSWEP June mixer.  Delectable appetizers from Trio were enjoyed during the evening along with yummy sweet samples from Brandini Toffee.  Thank you to our host, members and guests that came out to enjoy the fun. 

As the temperature heats up in the desert we wish all of you a cool, fun, and safe summer.  The PSWEP will not be hosting a July mixer, but look forward to reconnecting with you in August.  We have a new member communication program starting soon so keep an eye out for more information in your in-box as well as check out our blog, Facebook, and Twitter (@PalmSpringsWed) pages for updates through the summer.
