Description

We're so excited to be visiting the stunning Nella Terra Cellars  for our Q3 event: What's the Worst That Could Happen?!

Join us as Leah Weinberg, recovering wedding planner and current wedding lawyer, dives into all of the bizarre things that can happen on wedding and event days. Sometimes, truth really is stranger than fiction — especially in the event industry. Most event pros can readily share ridiculous stories with the best of them, including attorney and recovering wedding planner, Leah Weinberg. Pairing personal anecdotes with her candid takes on various business legalities, Leah infuses humor into an otherwise-daunting topic by sharing cautious tales of off-the-wall occurrences that aren’t quite as far-fetched as they seem. She’ll teach attendees how to identify and address unusual situations with clear action steps to stay ahead of the curve legally and ethically.


Takeaways include:
• Must-know legal concerns in the event industry and their ramifications
• Key contract terms to protect your business from the unexpected
• How to navigate client disputes
• Best practices for adjusting contracts without a lawyer

 

Meet Our Speaker!

After nearly a decade in the wedding industry as the owner of Color Pop Events, a New York City-based wedding planning company, Leah is returning to her roots as an attorney to assist her former colleagues in the events industry, along with other entrepreneurs and business owners.

A WeddingPro Educator with The Knot + WeddingWire since 2020, Leah travels throughout the country and internationally sharing insight with her peers at conferences and organizations such as DWP Congress, Be Sage Conference, Coterie Retreat, RSVP Club, WIPA, and NACE.

Leah is honored to serve on the Allied Council for the National Society of Black Wedding and Event Professionals (NSBWEP) while also mentoring through NSBWEP's Mentor Program and WeddingPro's Fellowship for Change program.
