Bridal Fair

Hiya Gang

Not posted for a while, hope you are all OK. Just wondering what you feel would be the key pieces to display at a Bridal Fair apart from the obvious.

Hi Potty

Thanks for this I had it in mind to keep with a theme and as XMAS is on the way I thought all white?? I just dont know, there is also a wedding fair in March too. I often think those coming to the Autum fairs are planning summer weddings and those coming to the March are planning winter weddings. Not doubt I'm wrong....

Me too potty but before you go. Boots do a vapour machine for your little one. You buy a soaked pad put it into the vapouriser and away you go. I have one and when my litttle girl Megan has a cold it works wonders and aids a peacful sleep. It isn't dear either.

Do you know potty I have never done a bridal fayre, I have always relied on word of mouth. Mainly because I resent the amount of money that these venues charge. Do you fine it brings in a lot of business. I was full up with brides this summer but they are thin on the ground now so it might be worth thinking about it. (hope your little josh is better soon)

I do a few fayres and usually just have the minimum space (6ft)
I have a couple of h/t sets and about half a dozen showers. Then 4 table centres to match colourways.
Last fayre I did, I had a couple of on the day orders for next spring, but the most surprising was an order for a fortnight later! and another has just got back to me for prices for end of October. That is deffo a bit tight.
I have just booked a 4 metre stand at Aberdeen fayre in the New Year
God only knows what I will be doing there!!!
