We just finished our fall round of the Wedding Expos! A great time was had by all....... smiling brides, happy vendors, beautiful displays, yummy food samples and of course fashion shows with all the latest fashions! What more would you ask for?
We ended our show season with the Portland / Vancouver Wedding Expo held twice annually the first weekend of October and January at the Clark County Event Center in Ridgefield, WA. We had two fashion shows per day featuring all the latest Bridal fashions from David's Bridal and MW Tux. You can see Brad Buckles, producer of the expos, was having a great time just before the fashion show.
Walking through the aisles, you were sure to find what you were looking for in the perfect wedding. There were a wide variety of vendors available. There were outstanding photographers such as William James Photography, who won the booth award for the best booth. You could find unique services like He Brews Espresso, who is a coffee catering company and won best new product. You could even get your hair done at The Wedding Stylist's booth, who took home the award for best new vendor! The pound cake samples were to die for at the Blackstone Grill booth who proved to be a favorite with the vendors.... they won the Merchant's Choice award!
No matter where you were in the show, you were surrounded with all the help you need to plan your wedding and your honeymoon! You could even play dress up with a Tiara as Kathy did at The Unique, who had a wide variety of headpieces and other accessories available!
Whatever type of wedding you choose to plan, be sure to stop by a Wedding Expo in your area! You'll find everything you need all in one place and have a great time doing it!

I bet that event was so much fun and informative for everyone involved in weddings to attend. Thanks for the update on the show.
Were there any slide show companies out there? This seems to be the new thing. Taking the photos from the wedding and creating custom slide shows with movement, backgrounds, panning and transitions all put to music and wow what a show!
Or using photos of the bride and groom over the years they were together up to the wedding day, including their younger year photos all put together as a slide show presentation for showing at the reception.
This makes for a very emotional, fun and unique experience and everyone gets to know the bride and groom in a whole new way!

Hi,
I just wanted to say that I love your website.
As a bride-to-be on a tight budget, I recently discovered an online bridal jewelry store called GlamForLess.com.
Though their website is plain and simple, I found some great deals on jewelry sets for me and my bridesmaids.
I think other readers on a tight budget may also find GlamForLess.com to be helpful.
You may want to check them out at http://www.glamforless.com/ and inform other readers about it.
Keep up the good work.
Best regards,
Lisa Bloom
