Going to first bridal fair!

They’re going to ask for emails a lot so give them a spam one

Thanks for the advice! Luckily I created a wedding email to avoid the spams long term haha

Create a seperate email for that sort of thing. And no cell phone.

Definitely avoid giving them your cell phone number! They will call or text you. Don't wear anything too heavy because it gets really hot in there too.

Bring a bottle of water. They’re fun but they’re a lot of information and talking, and you’ll probably get thirsty. Don’t get overwhelmed if you see things that you didn’t necessarily account for because a lot of bridal expos/fairs/shows include stuff you don’t necessarily need. Make a game plan for things important to you that you want to see. Have a blast and take all the pictures in the photobooths!

I went to a bridal expo and was so excited. Unfortunately, it was a big let down for me. Half of the vendors there had nothing to do with weddings. I was looking for a photographer and there wasn't a single one. We also got a LOT of phone calls and emails afterwards. I hope your experience is better than mine.

Thank to everyone who left advice! I made sure to give my wedding email and got to meet 4 djs and get some information which was super helpful and a main reason I had wanted to attend! I also ended up winning $100 off at a local floral shop I had been looking into using so that’s was awesome!

View Quoted Comment I’m sorry about that experience! That’s annoying! Luckily there was only 2 vendors I would say don’t have much to do with wedding there today - a realtor and a couple cooking class thing?? Other than that it was a lot of djs, venues, catering, printing companies, and a few photographers etc.
