Off to the Wedding Shows
Have you ever gone to one? Last month, I went to the
Seattle Wedding Show and Seattle Wedding Expo. One of my best friends is
getting married so I went for her and myself to get more information. I met up
with Leeching from L Events and we had a great time.
There were tons of photographers, cinematographers, wedding
consultants, officiants, florists, bakers, DJs, caterers and musicians. Did I mention that vendors also reduce their
prices? Not to mention, the number of prizes to win!
The
vendors are all at one place to cater to you and your needs. You get to meet a
number of them, get a better idea of their services and packages, taste and see
their products, ask lots of questions, and see if you guys click. This all
happens within one or two days.
400+ vendors
8,000+ attendees
It’s huge! It’s a great place to go to get lots of ideas
based on the number of vendors and their high quality of work.
Also, if you want a professional or venue that has won
awards and many praises, this is the place for you to go. Top companies, such
as The Invisible Hostess, Bamboo Beats and Aria Style, are there to help you
with your special day. Also, budding professionals, including those at LightForm Film, are there to work with you.
Seattle Wedding Expo
70+ vendors
It’s a smaller wedding show. If you are on a tighter budget,
it’s a good place to check out. Many
vendors provide quality services and products. Their work ethic and services
are top-notch too. Some already have been recognized, such as by King 5’s Best
of Western Washington.
Advice
If you are getting married or know of someone who is, I highly recommend going to a bigger wedding
show. There are tons of
inspirations and many vendors to talk to.
