The Kinder Weddings Conference

Welcome to The Kinder Weddings Conference, all about making weddings and events kinder for people and the planet. Get ready to immerse yourself in a world of creative ideas, inspiration, and expert advice for making weddings and events more sustainable, intentional, and mindful. The Kinder Weddings Conference will include an afternoon of expert speakers, panelists, and networking sessions. After a break, we'll return in the evening for our party of our own, featuring incredible desserts and drinks from Truffles Catering. This event is for all wedding and event vendors who want to learn more about sustainability in their own business, get tips for helping their clients celebrate more meaningful events, and connect with a group of awesome vendors. Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity to learn and connect with like-minded individuals who share your passion for creating beautiful, sustainable events!


Please note that snacks and drinks will be provided throughout the afternoon and during the evening mixer, but that dinner is not provided. We recommend checking out one of the many local restaurants near the Parkside Hotel for dinner and will provide a list of our favourite options nearby!
