BlogCrush was founded by Suzanne Broughton and Marcy Massura in 2009.

Both bloggers, writers and photographers from Orange County, California. Seeing plenty of networking opportunities for bloggers on the national level, Suz and Marcy wanted to create ways for local bloggers to meet to share tips, ideas and friendship. Meeting in local restaurants every other month, these 'vocal locals' get a chance to exchange ideas over a cocktail or two, while sampling some of the best these local establishments have to offer.
