In a first-of-its-kind event on Martha’s Vineyard, local and regional wedding and event professionals gathered for the inaugural Martha’s Party Wedding + Event Conference last May. Building on its success, Martha’s Vineyard Island Weddings magazine, in partnership with PartySlate, is once again hosting this exclusive conference at the Winnetu Oceanside Resort in Edgartown from May 13 – May 15, 2024.

Attendees will hear fresh perspectives from industry experts and gain insight about the challenges and benefits of planning events on Martha’s Vineyard, while also networking and fostering relationships with other professionals. “It’s a great opportunity for people both on and off the Island to come together, compare notes, share ideas, and get inspiration,” said Island Weddings editor Nicole Fullin. “There is something for everyone, whether you have an established business or are a newcomer. We want attendees to leave feeling that they made lasting connections, as well as learned something valuable that they can apply to the upcoming wedding season and beyond.”
