Make The Most Of Your Fair Experience
Wedding planning is a massive task, and
can cause a lot of unnecessary stress. A
great way to get inspired and organized is
to visit a wedding fair, where you’ll find
lots of suppliers all under one roof,
showcasing their products and — hopefully
— offering discounts!
However, if you’ve never been to one, it
can be quite a daunting prospect, so we
have teamed up with Joanne Maloney,
event manager of Confetti Live, to create
the perfect guide to navigating a wedding
fair, so you’re totally prepared and can get
the most out of your experience!

Before You Get There
• Think about what you’re going to wear. If it’s a
particularly large fair, you could be on your feet
for some time, so comfy flats are definitely the
wedding fair shoe of choice!
• Take a large bag with you, so you can fit in all
the leaflets and business cards, as well as a pair
of heels in case you want to try on a wedding
dress (or ten).
• It’s not the day for your tightest, skinniest
jeans. Not only could you be trying a lot of cake,
but if you do try on dresses, you’ll want to wear
something that’s easy to slip on and off.

Who To Take With You
• You could make a girls day out of it, by
taking your maid of honour and
bridesmaids — you know your best girls can
be trusted to give you their honest
opinions and to enjoy a cheeky glass of
champagne.
• If it’s time to make big decisions, such as
picking your wedding cake or deciding on
your entertainment, or maybe you need to
find a suit, take your groom along with
you. The promise of a cake sample or two
should persuade him...

Wedding Fair Wisdom
• “It’s a great idea to write out your name
and contact details on sticky postage labels
before the fair,” Advises Joanne. This way
you can just peel them off and stick them
on to information request forms and
competition entry forms. It saves a lot of
standing around waiting for a pen on the
day!
• Take cash with you for refreshments, and
bring your chequebook in case you want to
pay a deposit for something, as not all
places will have card taking facilities.
