For over thirty-eight years, David Egan’s highly-engaging, authentic style of presenting has brought people pretense-free, down-to-earth experiences that are superbly organized, fully researched, and easily accessible. Session attendees like that his presentations offer “tangible, useful, actionable” information they could immediately put to use.
David has lived and breathed weddings and events since 2002 at Chase Court, the wedding venue he owns in Baltimore, Maryland. He’s sat with thousands of couples as they planned their weddings, listening to what was said and what was unsaid, guiding and supporting them in making good decisions about their weddings.
David has been present to guide and support nearly 1,000 load-ins, events, and load-outs, and has worked with thousands of event professionals in the process.
David has been a member of the National Association for Catering and Events since 2002, and is a four-time judge for the national NACE One awards.
David served as a speaker proposal reviewer for the 2024 national NACE Experience Conference in Denver.
David received a NACE One national award for Wedding of the Year in 2018 for a Harry Potter-themed wedding at Chase Court.
Over 20 years ago, David co-founded a highly successful, ongoing, group for Baltimore wedding and event venue owners and managers, meeting monthly to share operational information, issues, and concerns; and to work together to improve each of their respective operations.
While living in his native New England, David trained as an Emergency Medical Technician in basic and advanced life support and pre-hospital trauma life support, and worked with several professional and volunteer ambulance services.
He has served on the faculty of the Connecticut Emergency Medical Services Annual Conference; designed, staffed, and led emergency medical services for the American Lung Association of Connecticut’s multi-day bicycle-tour fund-raising events; and taught workshops on first aid and safety at major national bicycling gatherings.
When he’s not doing something in the wedding business (which is most of the time), David enjoys photography and pickleball. He loves primary colors, sports cars, and dark chocolate.
