Wedding Shows

Is anyone attending a wedding show this winter?  I want to go to the one in February at International Market Square.  Does anyone know how to get tickets for that?

Don't know about that specfic show. Maybe check your local board for info on that show?

PSA: Just be careful with wedding shows. Don't give out your real email or phone number. They sell your info & you will have people bothering you for a long time.

Ditto redhead.  I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but wedding shows were the biggest waste of time and money of any wedding planning activity I did while I was engaged.  I don't even understand why you have to pay admission--they should pay YOU to go, because all it is is marketing. 

If you have your heart set on going, I don't want to dissuade you--you might meet a really good vendor or 2, and it's kind of a neat way to get excited about the wedding.

Someone just called me today telling me I "won" a prize.  Sure.  They said, "Someone must have registered you at a wedding show."  Bull.  No one would register me for anyting and I haven't been to any wedding shows.  They're trying to get me to buy cookware.  No thanks.

Never give those vendors your real info. You will never hear the end from them. Most shows are a waste of time in all honesty. Go and get ideas, just be aware they are trying to hard sell you to put down a deposit right there.
With the way the economy is they will keep their rates low after the show to get your business.
