LaCour at WPPI


WPPI has been fantastic so far. Andrew & Rachel were featured presenters at WPPI's Business Institute on Saturday. Over 400 people were in attendance and the response we've received from the presentation has been so positive. Thank you to everyone who has come up to us and given us feedback. We appreciate it! After the presentation, the LaCour crew, along with some friends went out to celebrate Mark's birthday! We had a swanky ride in a limo over to Mandalay Bay where we had dinner at the Russian restaurant Red Square, which featured a special sub-zero room with over 200 premium vodkas from around the world. We all donned fur coats (Note: For animal lovers out there, I was told they were not real fur) and sipped some pomegranate vodka in the freezing temperature. Fun!

Afterwards, we hung out at Mix Lounge at the top of Mandalay Bay, which provided an amazing view of the Las Vegas strip. Then, we all went to see Cirque du Soleil's O at the Bellagio. Absolutely Stunning.

On Monday, Mark spoke at the liveBooks booth. We also attended some great talks, including one by our good friend, Greg Gibson and then went to dinner with Greg and some other great friends. Thanks to Matt Mendelsohn for organizing the fun photojournalism lovefest/dinner at Mon Ami Gabi! We ended the night by heading over to The Palms hotel and going to a party at the KingPin Suite, which was absolutely amazing. In case you're wondering... Mark threw plenty of gutter balls.

And of course we're here at WPPI until Thursday, so look for more updates soon!

Fantastic presentation at the Biz I'stute, guys! Really brought a lot of disparate ideas together nicely!

It was so great meeting all of you! We now know why everyone talks about how amazing you guys are:-)

Love the vodka pics - I actually saw that place on the Food Network and thought it looked awesome. I will have to take Stick there next year - he is quite the vodka fan.

Take care and hope to see you guys soon - preferably before next WPPI!

As I was running around all week filming, I didn't get to sit in on many classes. However, I'm glad I got to see yours last Saturday. Keep up the great work. Pay us a visit if you're ever in the San Francisco Bay Area.
