Tips For Attending a Bridal Show
When attending a bridal show, there are several
things you need keep in mind. This was fully designed to make
your life easier and give you all the information about planning
your big day, all in one neat little package. This way you
don’t have to drive all over the city or call every vendor
in the phonebook. There will tons of other brides-to-be there
and you will need to make sure you take the time to ask any
questions you might have. There will be tons of vendors there,
too and many things to sign up for. This is a great opportunity
to meet several vendors who have the items you are looking
for. You can expect to see everything from dresses to honeymoon
packages and everything in between.
10 Tips For Attending Bridal Shows
1. Register when you enter this is a must for sure. It may
take a few minutes but you do have all day so why rush. This
will give you many chances to win prizes through out the day,
including a honeymoon. Also many exhibitors will mail you money
saving offers after the show.
2. Bring pre-adhesive address labels with your name, address,
and wedding date on them. This saves tons of time when registering
for prizes. It also makes sure that the vendor can easily read
it so they can send you more great savings.
3. Bring a pen and small notebook to jot down any notes you
might have. It will be a long day and you might forget some
of what peaked your interest at the beginning of the show.
So if you loved the 4-tiered cake with the velvet red roses,
write down the vendor and what it is, so you can remember later.
There is a good chance there will be multiple wedding cake
vendors.
4. You will want to have your checkbook with you for this
event. There are many savings you can have and you will need
to have some money. If you need to book something or reserve
something, you will need to make a deposit. Always come prepared
fore sure.
5. You are going to have so many things in your possession
by the time you are done with the show. There is no way you
will have time to go through it all right there. Bring a large
canvas type bag to put this stuff all in and go through at
your leisure at home. This way you will be able to enjoy it.
6. Plan to spend a minimum of 4 or 5 hours at a large show,
in order to see all the exhibits and the fashion show. You
don’t want to have a pressing lunch or have to meet someone
at a specific time and have to leave early. Make this your
day. There will plenty of food and beverages so you won’t have
to worry about being hungry. Plus, you can have cake samples
for dessert.
7. You will want to wear a Bride-To-Be sticker. This will
show vendors who you are and they will lavish you with attention
and even a lovely give-a-way. They will help answer any of
your questions and will take their time with you to make sure
you know anything you want.
8. Bring your fiancé with you for at
least one trip to the event, if he will go. This will give
him a chance to
look at what he might need or want as well. Many shows are
now designed for couples and there are men’s tuxedoes in the
fashion show to help give him ideas on what to wear. Go again
with your Mom and/or girlfriends, this will give you plenty
of opportunity to really appreciate everything you need and
want to see.
9. Make sure you ask as many questions as you like because
that is what you are there for. The vendors are solely there
to cater to the bride-to-be and will be extremely happy to
do so. You will not be pressured to buy anything because they
will just give you all the information you want. If you do
see something you really want and were definitely looking for
then go for it, you will gat a great deal buying or reserving
at a show.
10. The biggest thing to remember is that you are planning
your happiest day and you should relax and take in all you
can. You will be on your feet a lot so wear comfortable shoes
and have a great time!
