It will be a sensational Wedding Fayre - because Louise is running it, you know us teachers and our military organisation!

About Ali - Plans and Presents.

Thanks for the invitation to join you. It is great to be able to speak to group of mums in business that go through the same ups and downs as myself.
My name is Alison Tinlin and I live on the south side of Glasgow with my husband, Neill and my two kids, Kathryn, 4 and Leo, 22months.
I was a nurse in medical admissions for 14 years before having to give it up due to childcare issues.
I started my Wedding and Event Planning business, Plans and Presents http://www.plansandpresents.co.uk in April this year after pre planning and researching for a few years and then getting some practical experience.
My job is to work with my clients to create the vision they have of their special day or event and I offer several services from initial supplier and venue searches through to on the day management and of course the full co-ordination option.
I look forward to meeting you all.

Our 2nd Meet

We had our second meet last night in Oran Mor. It was the first time I have been there - very nice.
We had 8 mums & mums to be there.
Elaine( Ready Steady Go), Myself (Wedding and Baby & Charming Angels), Sharon (Raring2go),
Mundeep ( Partylite), Lesley (face painting by lesley), Mareike (Mareike Murray photography), Libby ( Bare Knees), M.T (Glasgowgirlsweddingguide).

We spoke about useful contacts like http://bgateway.com/ ( business advice) http://www.google.com/analytics/ ( website tracker) and http://www.alocalprinter.com/ (flyer printing).

Sharon had asked me a while back if at one of the meetings we could give her feeback on her magazine - so if it is ok with everyone else we could maybe do that at the next meet. The fact that we asked Sharon if she had brought her new copy - says it all really! Tired or not I, read it when I got to bed last night.

Mundeep brought some of her partylite candle sample smells with her - so that was great and we all had a sniff. The other people in the bar must have thought we were nuts!

A few of the are mums doing fairs between now and our next meet in Feb 2010 - GOOD LUCK.

We all left (sober!) clutching our Business Mums journal and the business cards of everyones business.
