AWA Member testimonials:
"We have been a charter member of the Adirondack Wedding Association since 2008. The AWA hosts an annual event at our facility and consistently brings us more than enough of the market share for weddings, banquets and events each year. Our membership through AWA not only allows us more contact with brides to fill dates we have open, but also allows our own clients to save an average of $1000.00 on their wedding events. Every time we turn to AWA for anything….they are there to deliver on a moments notice from entertainment to photography to decorations or any event service, they far exceed our demands. If your looking for a piece of the regional action, look no further than AWA."

*******************
I have been a member of the Adirondack Wedding Association since its inception, and could not be happier about the service that Mark and his staff provide to my iCandy Favor business. As a member of AWA, I have booked over 40% of my annual business from monthly leads given to me by the center as well as from my success at the two annual AWA bridal events, Six Flags Lodge and Dunhams Bay. AWA offers some of the best bridal packages that I have ever seen, which allow brides to take advantage of great savings and also for us vendors to work together to provide the best combined packages to our clients. I am honored to be a member of such a dedicated group of professionals that not only provide exceptional customer service, but also work so well together. Thank you Mark and staff, for always giving 110% to making AWA a success for vendors such as myself. I appreciate all that you do for my business and the brides that we service. You guys are the best!

"Since becoming a Partner Member of the AWA we no longer have to market in any other way for wedding/bridal clients. They now come to us. It's easy when surrounded by a group of like minded, dedicated professionals. By far the best marketing money we have ever spent."

******************
As a proud, Charter Member (2008) of the Adirondack Wedding Association, The Great Escape Lodge and Indoor Water park has greatly prospered over the last two years as a result of our unification with the Adirondack Wedding Association. We receive weekly, very qualified leads and as a result, have booked many weddings. In addition, the Adirondack Wedding Association’s Annual Bridal Show at The Lodge brings in a superior number of brides, due to the very talented marketing efforts of AWA. In short, The Lodge can accurately boast that 25% of all weddings that are booked are a result of the existence of the Adirondack Wedding Association!
But it is not all about how The Lodge has benefited… It is really all about the Bride and Groom. As soon as they are introduced to the Adirondack Association, I am quick to get feedback from them that they were treated royally by AWA staff in their initial meeting. Moreover, they go on to report to me the hundreds and even thousands of dollars in savings they readily achieve by using the talented vendors that are in our Association. As one bride later put it, “it was the best one-stop shopping that I have ever done in my life! All my anxiety diminished, knowing that I was getting the very best of the best, at the best pricing possible….. the discounts and benefits are amazing!”
