About this Event
PROOF WE'RE HERE…Distilled by Community. Crafted Through Culture.
This isn't just a year-end mixer.
This is a celebration of the culture, community, and collective impact we've built together throughout 2026.
Join NSBWEP Chicago as we gather for our final event of the year at , an internationally acclaimed, award-winning, woman-owned distillery that has redefined what innovation, craftsmanship, and bold leadership look like in the spirits industry.
PROOF WE'RE HERE is a declaration.
A declaration that our presence matters. Our businesses matter. Our creativity matters. Our community matters.
We'll kick off the evening with an exclusive tour and tasting experience at KOVAL, then transition into what we do best: building authentic connections, exchanging ideas, celebrating accomplishments, and cultivating the relationships that continue to move our industry forward.
This gathering is designed for wedding and event professionals who understand that success is never built alone. It is distilled through the power of community and crafted through the culture we create together.
As 2026 comes to a close, we'll raise a glass to the milestones we've achieved, the barriers we've broken, the partnerships we've formed, and the future we're building. Together.
Come ready to connect. Come ready to celebrate. Come ready to honor the journey.
Most importantly, come ready to make one final memory with your NSBWEP family before we step boldly into 2027.
Because after everything we've accomplished this year, one thing is clear:
We're not just in the room. We're shaping the room.
