Don't miss the wedding event of the year: The popular Wedding Lunch at The Special Event 2011 takes place Jan. 26 in Phoenix. And you can still reserve a table of 10, but only if you act by Oct. 25. After that date, only general ticket seating will be offered, if available.

This year's Wedding Lunch will feature wedding planner extraordinaire Sasha Souza as keynote speaker, offering all her "favorite things" for weddings. Wedding Lunch ticket-holders are also entitled to free admission to the Designer Wedding Gallery, a one-of-a-kind showcase of unforgettable wedding design.
