Sweet Life in The Valley blog Utah Valley: Utah Bloggers Summit * at Le Chateau in Provo

It has been a busy past few weeks and I have another busy next few week ahead. Over the past busy few weeks I hosted the first annual Utah Bloggers Summit in Provo, Utah at the beautiful event & reception center, Le Chateau. We are so happy the Le Chateau offered to host our location. It is THE premier events & reception center in Utah. As you enter Le Chateau you come to a beautiful fountain. The outside is covered in ivy and nestled into the trees next to the Provo River. My favorite thing is that it took very little effort on our party to create a beautiful event. Since the event center is already full of beautiful decor.

We had some great talented people speak and share their expertise including Social Media presented by Scott Duehlmeier {aka @Paco_Belle} & Darin Berntson {aka Doc}, PR & Media Kits presented by Lyndsey Payzant Wells, SEO presented by Janet Meiners Thaeler, Being Media Ready presented by Pamela Baumeister, Tauni Everette- Utah Transit Authority and Anne Williams from Intrepid spoke on working with brands.

By request of some of our Utah Bloggers Meetup group members we had 3 open discussion rounds tables. The Creative Bloggers round table was co-headed by Shelley Smith of House of Smiths & Amy Huntley of The Idea Room. The Food Bloggers round table was co-headed by Maria Lichty of Two Peas in Their Pod & Carrian Cheney of Sweet Basil. The Lifestyle Bloggers Round table was co-presented by Jenny Eckton of Formerly Phread &

We had a delicious dinner catered by Utah Celebrations Catering. The fresh fruit display was stunning, the pulled pork was moist and tasty and the pineapple vinaigrette on the salad was a nice surprise favorite.

After dinner and great inspiring speakers we had a great time socializing and eating yummy cupcakes from Cupcake Chic, Orem's Cupcake Bakery.

The hair stylists from Metropolitan Salon in Provo styled our hair before we snapped some photos in the 'Stash in a Box Photo Booth. So much fun!!

Thanks to our Sponsors for making our first annual Utah Bloggers Summit so wonderful...
