!Some Tips On Bridal Shows/Fairs
Do your research. If you are curious in attending a bridal show contact the company that is hosting it and ask for the names of participating wedding vendors. If possible get each wedding vendor’s website address and learn more about them. If there is a specific vendor’s work you are particularly fond of make it a point to have a conversation with them the day of the bridal show.

If you have the funds, have a check book handy. Many wedding vendors are available to book their services the day of the bridal show/fair and offer discounts and gifts to couples who do so.

• Wear comfortable shoes.
• Find out the cover charge (if any) and also inquire about parking.
• Avoid bringing children and baby strollers.
• Bring a shoulder bag to collect wedding literature, demo samples, and other fee goodies.
• Before attending the show make a list of the wedding services you need, and an estimated budget for each of them.
• Bring picture collections of centerpieces, hairdos, menus, etc. that you are fond of for your wedding.
• Show these to wedding vendors to give them an idea of your taste and style.
• Bring a camera (preferably digital). There will be many floral, cake, and table display ideas, among many others.
• Before attending the bridal show create a wedding email address you can put on the registration form, give to wedding vendors, and use for other wedding purposes.
• Bring preprinted labels with your contact information, such as; name, address, phone number, email address and wedding date. This will avoid your hand and wrist to hurt at the end of the day (there will be many door and raffle prizes and you will probably want to enter).
