I am thrilled to announce I was elected President of the Greater Broward and the Palm Beach Chapter of NACE. I am honored to accept this position, and I look forward to a successful 2022!

I want to thank Keith Willard, the immediate past president, for his dedication and service. Thank you to my fellow board members, including Marci Hirshman Guttenberg, Tiffany Anzelmo Wheeler, Anna Garcia, and Amy Fisher. These incredible professionals have been warm and welcoming since I joined the board in 2019. I am excited to work with them to take our chapter to the next level.

Let me tell you a little about myself for those who do not know me.  I started my wedding planning business, Anna Hess Events, in August of 2019.  I believe in networking and continuing education. I attend national wedding and event conferences all over the country to stay up to date on the latest trends and expand my knowledge. I have grown my passion for floral design over the past two years. I even started a Growing Kindness garden and grew my own Delilahs, my favorite flower. In addition to florals, I love tablescaping and plan to bring a few programs to South Florida to showcase the latest trends. I’m a foodie and a lover of bubbly. I am a mom to my three amazing girls Jessica, Sophie, and Ella. My sweetest job in the whole world is bubbe to my precious granddaughter, Victoria.

To get back to business. I am ready to build our networking community. I invite everyone in the event and wedding industry to join us. Reach out to me if your company wants to be showcased in 2022. We will be highlighting all our members on social media and beyond! Plus, we have some fun and educational events designed for our members. We’ve even booked national speakers. The calendar of events will be up shortly on our website.  It’s a great time to join us! Visit https://browardpalmbeachnace.com for details.
