Thanks to the Knot's promotion, I got two free tickets to the Great Bridal Expo in Denver yesterday. It was a terrible experience compared to other bridal shows I've been to! At the start, they want to charge you $6 for a printed sheet of your name and address--supposedly to save you time from having to enter each vendor's 'contest' individually. There weren't even that many vendors at the Denver event, so it wouldn't have saved any time. (There were no florists and no music options--both two things I still need to book). In my opinion, brides are already overcharged for so many 'wedding' expenses, that paying $6 for a useless piece of paper just pushed me over the edge. Definitely don't pay to go to this event. Even if you did get free tickets, don't expect to meet a whole lot of vendors. It might be worth it if you're planning on getting your dress from David's Bridal, as you'll get $50 off and a chance to win a $500 gift certificate. Otherwise, this event is a waste of time.
