“Dave has been a presenter at numerous events for us over the years, both in-person and virtually. His passion to deliver current content never ceases to amaze.

Erik Spence, Conference Planner at ALP (Association of Lodging Professionals)
“Dear Dave – THANK YOU once again for doing an outstanding 2020 Wedding Trends presentation at the 2020 Myrtle Beach PAII Innkeeping Conference…Your reviews were excellent.” Kris Ullmer, President/CEO, Association of Lodging Professionals formerly PAII
“We were confident that Elopements and Bed & Breakfast Inns would be a good match – and Dave’s PAII 2019 presentation “Wedding Elopement Packages that BOOK!” answered our questions and gave the innkeeping audience insight on the ‘how-to-process’. Innkeepers need data to make decisions for their business, and Dave shared the newest research on who elopes and why, what is their planning time-frame and desired price-point, what do engaged millennial couples demand and so much more. Innkeepers left the session equipped with facts to determine if Elopement Packages were right for their property, and how to market them to promote them to the desired audience.” Kris Ullmer, President / CEO Professional Association of Innkeepers International (PAII)
“Dave really delivered! He’s big on audience engagement, shared tons of great information, and is super enthusiastic about his subject. Probably 80% of the audience is now committed to providing elopements…and we know the steps to take to achieve this goal! A win/win for inns and brides!!!”
Carol Harris, Washington Independent Innkeepers Network (WIIN)
