Arizona-Phoenix

omg... i'm exhausted

AZ bridal show is today and my FI and i just got back from there. in hindsight, i don't really know why we went, i got a free ticket in the mail though so maybe that's why. we actually have most of our vendors set already or they're done through our venue, but we were looking for like 3 specific things: tuxes (got fliers for coupons, but i think we're gonna go with mens wearhouse anyway), photo booths (decided they are too out of our budget), and limousines (only ONE company we saw there! kinda odd).

i'll admit, signing up for all the freebies and contests and sampling the cakes and food was fun. The Knot had a booth too... got some free cake flavored chapstick! yum!

ok... time to go take a nap....... LOL

    Hey I went with my Maid of Honor/Little sister and we were pretty much just looking for a photobooth and tuxes as well. We actaully found our photobooth!! We booked with DGevent.com at the show because they had a special of 3 hours for $499. The camera looks like a little iPod looking thing and we can customize the whole look of the pictures. We wanted one so bad but couldn't afford the $1000+ price tag most of them had. When I told my FI he was so excited. Hopefully it goes well and is worth the money!!!

    I agree, it was completely exhausting, and crowded! I went with my mom and we got a lot of new ideas we hadn't thought of before and got a couple new vendors. But man, it was hot outside!

    hey guys! I went up there, also, with one of my bridesmaids. It was fun, but you ladies are right, it was definitely exhausting! I was pretty much just looking for a makeup artist and I got sucked into the photobooths, too. I really want one!

    Marissa, I saw that DG one, but I forgot to check the prices, so thanks for posting that. It sounds really reasonable.

    I feel like it's a love hate relationship with those shows.  I know one thing is for sure, I hate the spam mail from those things!!!

    I went, too. And entered all 456,765 contests. Already gotten my first few spam emails (unsubscribe!) and won something from one of the china places (have to call tomorrow to find out what exactly...hope there are no strings attached). We had fun (went with my MOH) but mostly just coveted things outside my price range. I got home and showed the FI all the info about photobooths and videography and she was not pleased. Oh well. It was worth a shot.
