Bridal and wedding shows are a great way to get a lot of information
in one place. But if you don’t plan ahead, you can find yourself overwhelmed by
so many choices.
Be prepared. Bring a notebook with questions ready to go so
you know what you’re looking for. If you already have a DJ, but not a florist,
don’t spend too much time at the DJ tables and instead focus on the floral
arrangements. Or vice versa, if you are looking for an amazing DJ.
Make address labels. Every vendor at a show will give you
the option to join their mailing list. Make up some labels with your
information (name, address, email) and use them to sign up. It will save you a
lot of writing at the tables. There are many easy tutorials online on how to
make them, depending on your computer system.
Ask for special bridal show deals. Many vendors will have
special offers for attending the show. Some ask you to simply mention you saw
them at a show, while others may require you to book at the event itself. But if
it’s a vendor you’re happy to be working with, always check to see if they are
offering a special deal!
Bring a buddy. Whether it’s a member of your wedding party,
a family member, your sweetheart or another good friend, having someone with
you will also help keep you from being overwhelmed.
