If you walked in my office right now, you would be shocked. I’m in a mess trying to get ready for the upcoming Wedding Festivals Show at the Hyatt this Saturday. You would not believe how much behind the scenes work is done before a show. It is hard work, but I enjoy doing the shows. It is such a great way to meet new brides and new vendors. There is so much excitement in the air at every show we do.
If you’re planning to attend the show, here are a few tips.
1) Wear comfortable shoes. This is not the time to dress up in heels. You are going to walk a lot.
If you’re planning to attend the show, here are a few tips.
1) Wear comfortable shoes. This is not the time to dress up in heels. You are going to walk a lot.
2) Type out your name, address, email (set up one strictly for the wedding) and wedding date on address labels. This way instead of filling out hundreds of entries for prizes, you can just stick on a label.
3) Make a quick tour through the area first, decide which booths you want to spend some time at and go back to these booths when they are not crowded. The best time to talk to a vendor is actually during the fashion show. If you already have your dress, skip the show and go have some one on one time with vendors you are interested in.
4) Don’t bring your whole wedding party with you. You, your Mom and your best friend are plenty. If you can convince the fiancé by all means bring him along. Most shows now days have a men’s area with cigars, beer and chairs and there is always food to taste.
At the show on Saturday we will be in booth #100. Be sure and stop by to say hello.
