Weekly Wedding Tips: Bridal Shows

  1. Heading out to one of the upcoming The Premier Bridal Shows?  Be sure you are comfortable from your shoes to your hair! (Especially your shoes – you’re going to be on your feet for quite a while).  You don’t need to look like a beauty queen today: That comes later.
  2. You’ll find that at bridal shows you will be filling out SO many things that even your hands will become achy. To avoid this come prepared with labels that include your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and wedding date printed on them. This way you can easily enter the various giveaways and promotions and save a whole lot of time.
  3. Temporarily rent a PO Box for all of the wedding related material, including free drawings and giveaway information, to come to. After the wedding you simply cancel the PO Box. (GREAT idea to do with e-mail as well!)
  4. Don’t go to a bridal show alone! Although your fiancé is probably the best one to bring along, a couple of friends or family will suffice. You need others’ objective opinions and perhaps some physical help carrying around the many things you will inevitably pick up.
  5. When attending a bridal show it can be handy to have swatches of material or ribbons with your wedding colors on them.
  6. If you already have all of the attire for the wedding picked out, you might want to skip the bridal show fashion presentation and visit vendor’s booths at that time. You’ll battle fewer crowds and you won’t start re-thinking anything.
  7. Take all the brochures you can from the bridal show. You might not think you need information about bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts now but who knows, things have a way of creeping up on you.
  8. Take pictures. There might not be too many things you can snap up, but you may be able to snap a photo!
  9. Wear a cute bride-to-be T-Shirt, hat, or sticker to the bridal shows. You will look cute and you WILL receive special attention from the vendors. Seriously, it works.
  10. There will be a lot for you to see at bridal shows. Don’t let yourself become overwhelmed or discouraged. These events tend to bring out more emotion than you may anticipate. If you need to, just take it all in.
