How to Survive Bridal Expo Season by Dream Design Weddings

It's expo season and to help you survive here are a few tips to make the most of your day:
 What should I bring to the show?
    Bring pre-printed address labels! Nearly every vendor will ask for your name or invite you to enter their drawings for special prizes. And don’t forget your date book and a big bag. You may find one or more vendors that you would like to schedule a personalized consultation following the show, and you’ll also need a place to store all the vendor info you’ll receive.
How much time should I spend at a bridal expo?
    You will want to allocate between 2 and 4 hours of your time, so that you visit with as many wedding vendors as possible between noon and 4 p.m.
Who should I bring with me to the show?
    You will probably want to invite your entire bridal party including the groom* to the event. They can help you cover twice as much ground and help share in the planning process by offering their opinions and thoughts.
