In the heart of the rugged forest of Bend, Oregon lies a tranquil retreat where wellness meets luxury and its name is Juniper Preserve. Come relax and rejuvenate with us, sipping cocktails on a private lake island and enjoying dinner in one of their epic lava caves.
Join some of the top 50 wedding planners and top 50 photographers / videographers in the world for custom matched one-on-one sit downs, fine dining, and shared experiences. This venue offers the perfect combination of relaxation and adventure.
Gone are stuffy conference rooms and surface-level conversations. Kindred Collective is a time of genuine connection with no pretense. We are here to find lasting partnerships, friendships, and support while enjoying coursed dining, group experiences, and premier wedding venues.

THE DETAILS
Because intimacy is key, attendance is capped at 100.
Attendees will have approximately 6 one-on-one sit-downs with planners and photographers/ videographers specifically curated to match them, their brand, and their goals. Starting this year we will also have a small group component. 50% of attendees will be planners, and 50% will be photographers/videographers. Planners will meet with planners, photographers will meet with photographers, and then planners and photographers will meet with each other.
If you are invited to attend a Kindred Collective Event you will receive an email with a form asking you questions about yourself and your company. You will also have the option of scheduling time to chat individually with Rebecca before the event so she can further get to know you. We will use the information we gather to create your one-on-one matches.
