Houston Wedding Showcase (Benefits of A Bridal Show) - August 27, 2011

We are proud to announce that we participated in another great bridal show in Houston. This time around it was the Houston Wedding Showcase at the George R. Brown convention center produced by Sonja van Florestein.




We love participating in the bridal shows first because we get to meet the vivid newlyweds face to face and second we get to connect with the area's leading wedding professionals here in Houston! The showcase was very distinct in its own way compared to the other bridal shows we had participated in as it is more intimate and creates a unique one on one experience for the brides and wedding professionals. With limited vendors in each category at the showcase this a great way of providing adequate time for the brides to get to know the vendors on a more personal level.



So enough talking about us …we gave you the reasons why we enjoy the bridal shows now here are a several reasons why newlyweds & prospective newlyweds should attend a bridal show (and stop by and meet Signature Eventx ;-)):

Bridal shows are very helpful if you are planning a wedding. You will meet and speak with local wedding professionals, see fashion shows, sample gourmet delights, register to win  prizes, and probably have an enjoyable day.




Top tips for attending a bridal show

.BRING YOUR FIANCE, PARENTS, AND/OR BRIDESMAIDS. They can help you cover twice the ground and offer opinions about the choices of wedding merchants. (Note: About 30% of fiancés attend, in spite of what yours may assume! And they like cake samples, as you know.)
.PLAN TO SPEND TWO HOURS so you can visit all the wedding merchants and see at least one fashion preview. You will kick yourself if you don’t: nowhere else can you get as much done in as short of period of time.
.BRING PRE-PRINTED ADDRESS LABELS. Many vendors hold drawings for trips, prizes, and discounts: your labels save you from repeatedly writing your name and address.
.BRING YOUR CHECKBOOK if you might want to book services or hold dates with a deposit. The top photographers, caterers, florists, and DJs book up quickly.
.BRING YOUR CALENDAR. You will find vendors with whom you would like to schedule a one-on-one consultation.
.ARRIVE WITH A PLAN. Know what you are looking for and have questions in mind. You will save time and you will see everything that’s important to you.
.WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES. You will stroll many aisles!
.IF YOU ARE OUT OF TOWN… send mom or a trusted friend to collect information on services you need and register you for prizes.
.ASK QUESTIONS! The vendors are there to help you. You are under no pressure to buy from them, so find out everything you need to know.

  1. Good to know about this bridal show. These kinds of events are extremely useful for brides to be as they get a lot of ideas for their wedding parties. My sister tied wedding knot at domestic NYC wedding venues and she had DIY ceremony so these expos and shows helped her a lot.
