Check out my recent vlog about my experience and thoughts about the 2015 Ethan Allen Wedding Show! 

Another wonderful woman owed business I have met on this journey is Rita's Floral Touch. At the various wedding shows I have attended the floral decorations from Rita's have brighten up each venue.  I have personally seen her at work decorating The Fox Hill Inn before ceremonies.  One time I was there for a rehearsal and she was setting up for the wedding that day.  I am always amazed at how beautiful she makes everything, from the aisles to the alter area to the reception.  Go to Rita's Floral Touch Facebook page to see more floral arrangements. 

Warm Wishes,

Several weeks ago I had the pleasure of being a vendor at The Southbury Bridal Show.  I am not even sure how I first found out about this this but from the past 2 shows, I have gotten to know Heather from Respond If You Please, who coordinates the show.  What a show she puts on!

There were 3 rooms plus of wedding professionals.  Anything you could need to make your day special was on hand.  Each room had a delicious assortment of food from the Heritage Hotel.  If that wasn't enough waiters walked around with trays of appetizers.

One of the things I liked most about this show was a comment I overheard.  Although there were some vendors selling the same product or service, "Many of them recommend each other when they are already booked" which speaks to the professionalism and quality of those participating in this wedding show. 

This is a once a year wedding show, although I did get an email that they are looking to do a fall show as well.  Either way this show should not be missed! For those who are engaged and looking to get married in 2015 or 2016 make sure you add The Southbury Bridal Show to the list of shows you must attend.

Over the past 3 months I have had the pleasure to be able to participate in some wonderful wedding shows.  Today I want to focus on the shows from Danbury Bridal Show. These shows were put together by a dear friend of my family, Mike Tomassi.  Words can not truly express how wonderful Mike is.  He has watched me grow into the person I am today and has encouraged me this past year as I entered the wedding industry as a JP.  Mike Tomassi not only organized and ran these shows but also runs Picture This Photography. I guess I am a little biased to the man who was the photographer for my own wedding. 

Each of the shows is at a different venue in the Greater Danbury area.  One of the shows is even at the Danbury Fair Mall.  Couple have the opportunity to see different wedding professionals while also seeing  and tasting the venue at it's finest.  The shows are very enjoyable for both the wedding couples and the wedding professionals.  At the shows I did, I felt welcomed by the other wedding professionals which let to some great networking and future recommendations and referrals. Also the couples really seemed to be enjoying themselves and all were a pleasure to meet and talk to.  Whether you are a wedding professional or a couple looking to participate in a wedding expo I highly recommend checking out Danbury Bridal Shows!
