The Wedding Alliance of North Georgia Bridal Showcase will have you seeing white
It may not be June, but engaged couples can still begin their pre-wedding preparations at the Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau-sponsored Wedding Alliance of North Georgia Bridal Showcase in October.
Love is in the air – throughout the year.
And Wedding Alliance of North Georgia Bridal Showcase event organizers want to do everything they can to put wedding resources at the fingertips of brides, grooms and their families. No matter what time of year you plan to marry, there is sure to be something you can use at the showcase event.
More than 50 experts from multiple wedding-related fields will show off their services and products during the showcase.
In essence, the event is a one-stop shop for attendees.
Visitors can tailor fit the showcase to their own needs, for instance local event facilities and hotels will be on hand to offer quotes on everything from event location rentals, to accommodations for the bridal party. Boutiques and novelty stores can help you pick out your bridal gifts. Local designers will give top-notch advice on building a vision for the “big day.” And since the wedding you’ve dreamed up since grade school probably included flowers, stop by the floral booths.
Looking to check ordering the cake off your to-do list and satisfy your sweet tooth at the same time? Local bakeries will offer cake-tasting sessions for couples. Additionally, catering specialists will set up stations where attendees can see what they can bring to the table – literally.
Since capturing the moment will be high on your list of priorities, photographers and videographers will be able to show you some of their work during the showcase, as well.
And don’t forget to register with the visitor’s bureau. Giveaways including photography, hotel accommodations, cake design and flowers valued up to $3,000 will go to some lucky winners.
The Manor Golf and Country Club will host the showcase on Sunday, October 18, from noon to 4 p.m. Admission is free. Register at www.awesomealpharetta.com.
