ARE WEDDING SHOWS WORTH IT?
Why are wedding shows great? In a world that’s dominated by technology and social media, can’t you just advertise online? Well, sure, that’s one way to do it. Your website and social media are a great way to make known your initial presence. Brides research online for vendors before booking appointments. It’s essential to have an online presence to make those first impressions. However, if you want to seal the deal and secure a contract, you need credibility, face-to-face interaction, and exposure.

How can we help GROW YOUR BUSINESS?
Are you struggling to book more weddings or aiming for better results than previous years?
Fewer bookings = less money = stress!
It's time to take action and thrive despite the challenges. Wedding industry surveys reveal declining spending and fewer weddings. It's a very competitive environment.
Did you know that 97% of brides will NOT buy from you without first meeting you!
Here's what other vendors have to say:
WOW! What a successful show we had this past weekend!!! I appreciate the hard work and dedication you and your team put in on Sunday to make the show a hit! I just wanted to follow up on behalf of Complete Weddings & Events, Liana, and myself and thank you again. Dan - Complete Weddings & Events
Hi Carol, I just wanted to let you know how thrilled I am that I decided to do the bridal show this past Sunday! I had always been hesitant to participate in one, but when I visited one of yours, it was very elegant and very well run that I figured I'd give it a try and see what happens. Everyone running the show was a huge help to me and the other vendors, always checking in to see that I was doing well with my set-up and through out the entire show. Well, it's only 48 hours after the show and I've already booked three weddings for my photography company! I can't wait to be a part of your next bridal show. Michelle Jahns Photography
