    3. CodeNoirUSA has replied affirmative they will be attending. As to the companies themselves, we have not had replies per se. Last year we were blessed to have silverbeams as well as Anne Pecaro attend and teach as well as an awesome wig class by Jude Olsen. I do believe this year we be even better!!

    25. Does this event take place annually?

      Because I can't go this year, but it sounds like an awesome thing to plan for in the future!
       
    26. Seconding @Onyx-Witch's question! This year's meetup is the weekend before my wedding and only two weekends after AWA so there's no way I can make it, but if you're intending to continue this next year as well I'll definitely keep an eye out!
       
    27. Our hope is to have the event every year! We would love to see you all there next year!!
