Embrace wedding season

Begin with venue tours and open days to find that perfect spot. Then, gather all the inspiration and contacts you need at bridal and wedding expos. Don’t forget to stay ahead of fashion trends by attending dress trunk shows.

Wedding venue tours and open days

What’s the picture you hold in your mind of your wedding day? Is it a lush garden backdrop? Or a pristine historical mansion? Whatever flavour your heart desires, imagination is one thing, but seeing it is a whole new game. Find out if your shortlisted venues have open days and if so, add them to your calendar. If not, ask if you could book a tour. It’s a fantastic way to get a visual of the space and chat about your vision and needs. Take a list with you of your most pressing questions about dates, packages, and their service inclusions.

Expos

Bridal expos are like your one-stop shop for all things wedding. Imagine all of your wedding ideas Pinterest boards coming to life and that’s pretty much what you can expect at an expo. If it’s inspiration you need, or you want to connect with vendors, expos are hard to beat. Wedding expos are great for gathering resources like tips on budgeting, planning timelines, and DIY projects.

Dress trunk shows

Bridal expos are great for exploring dress options but dress trunk shows are the elite way to find ‘the one true dress’. These special events are usually hosted by bridal boutiques and it’s your chance to view their collection beyond what is normally available. Often, they’ll showcase a particular designer so if you know whose dress you want but haven’t quite found the one yet, dress trunk shows are your golden ticket. At some dress trunk shows, the designers themselves or a brand representative may be on hand. It’s a unique opportunity for personalised advice. You may even pick up a special offer discount if you find the one and order your dress during the event.
