congratulations
congratulations
The groom has proposed and you've
accepted. Now the planning begins. The
only problem is that you and your groom
probably work full-time jobs and have
hundreds of other responsibilities. So where
do you find the time to plan a wedding?
A bridal show affords couples the
opportunity to meet photographers,
florists, caterers, bakery representatives,
musicians, DJs and many other wedding
professionals, all conveniently set up
under one roof. These shows also provide
the opportunity to sample wares, view
vendor's work and compare your level
of comfort with other vendors you may
already be considering.
Many bridal shows feature fashion
shows, where the latest in men's
formalwear, bridesmaid's dresses, and
bridal gowns are presented. It is a good
idea to bring a note pad and pencil so you
can take notes on your favorite dresses,
tuxedos and the stores that offer them.
In addition to fashion shows, food
samples and entertainment are also
featured. There are numerous door
prizes and contests to enter so bring stick
on labels with your name, address and
wedding date to make registering for
prizes easier. Wear comfortable shoes since
the venues where these bridal shows are
hosted can be rather large. Many vendors
will offer day of show specials, so if you
can, bring the decision makers with you.
You may be able to take advantages of
some sweet deals if you're prepared to
put a deposit down at the time. And most
importantly, have fun!
