WIPA Boston Q2 Chapter Meeting
Whispers in the Garden
June 2, 2026 | 1:30 PM
The Gardens at Elm Bank
Surrounded by the lush gardens, our featured speaker, Matthew Wengerd of A Fine Press, will lead a powerful session:
âAsk Better Questions. Produce More Impactful Work.â
Because the truth is, the most meaningful events arenât built from mood boards. Theyâre built from curiosity, intention, and the willingness to ask better questions.
This conversation, inspired by the Holy Shit Conversation Deck, will challenge how you approach your clients, your creativity, and your role in shaping experiences that actually resonate.
No Pinterest board required. Just arrive in your favorite spring/summer look, ready to engage, reflect, and elevate.

Looking back, I'd change almost everything about how I approach this project. The wood was the hook, but I didn't take the time to understand the game I was playing. Now, I craft to be a part of the event before it's even started.
Iâm so curious: Did you get one of these wood invites? #Theknotgala #events

Everyone was watching, because something meaningful was unfolding.
For V+P, the goal from the start was never just to design a beautiful weekend in Madrid. It was to create an experience that reflected who they are. One that carried emotion, intention, and momentum from the first gathering to the final reveal.
We took inspiration from their story and shaped the weekend around it. Sculpted poppies suspended overhead, nodding to the groomâs work in the global spice trade. A palette rooted in Spanish fashion, local flowers, surrealist paper goods, and a flow designed to move guests from moment to moment without losing intimacy.
V+P were the center of this story. Our role was to orchestrate and immerse everyone in it.
