Getting the most out of Wedding Fairs

September tends to bring the start of Wedding Fair season.  It can be quite overwhelming walking into a room full of wedding suppliers so here's my top tips for getting the most out of wedding fairs:

  • Look at the stand – is it well presented, are the people well presented?
  • Look at the exhibitor list in advance and identify the suppliers you want to speak to.
  • Does the supplier ask you questions? Do they seem interested in your wedding?
  • Are they offering you a sample of their work?
  • Don’t be sucked in by ‘one day only’ special offers. If they are a good company, you should get the best deal whenever you choose to purchase.
  • Take someone with you so you can discuss your ideas.
  • Take a camera and a notepad – use them!
  • Once you have looked around have a coffee, sit down and reflect on what you have seen. Decide which suppliers you may want to have a further chat with.

Most important of all - enjoy yourself!
