			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After a one year hiatus, the <a href="http://www.bridalassn.com/" target="blank">Association of Bridal Consultants</a> Northwest Regional Conference returned, and the event was a success for those who made the trip.</p>
<p>The conference was held at the beautiful <a href="http://embassysuites1.hilton.com/en_US/es/hotel/PDXESES-Embassy-Suites-Portland-Airport-Oregon/index.do" target="_blank">Embassy Suites Portland Airport</a>, and centered around the Expanding Horizons: Networking and Etiquette Revival class created and delivered by Master Bridal Consultant Sandra Monahan, owner of <a href="http://www.weddingswithoutworries.net/" target="_blank">Weddings Without Worries</a>, who traveled all the way from Wexford, PA.</p>
<p>The Networking and Etiquette Revival class was very comprehensive, and although my etiquette is pretty polished, I learned a handful of additional etiquette to put to good use. Now I know what to do with that bread basket sitting in front of me at the <a href="http://www.bellevuechamber.org/" target="_blank">Bellevue Chamber of Commerce</a> Business Lunches!</p>
<p>I want to give special recognition to Carna Lapping, owner and event planner at <a href="http://www.veryimportantevents.com" target="_blank">Very Important Events</a>, who put the advice given in the Expanding Horizons material to good use, and sent me a warm, handwritten note following our return back to Seattle.</p>
<p>I had a great time in Portland, and am already looking forward to the next ABC Northwest Regional Conference to be held in Washington for 2012!</p>

<p>The MKT Town Car will be offered in two body styles – the standard livery version with available all-wheel drive, and a stretchable heavy-duty limo with standard all-wheel drive. Will the public accept this unexpected replacement, or will a new make emerge as the leader in chauffeured transportation?</p>
