Brides - Bridal Extravaganza Show
About the Bridal Extravaganza Show Introduction For thirty years, the Bridal Extravaganza Show in Houston has been bringing brides and wedding vendors together. See what real Houston brides have to say about the show and how it helped them plan their big day. 1 2 For all the beautiful brides 3 "Now join your hands, and with your hands your hearts." -William Shakespeare Kayla Barker Fine Art Photography Brittany Howell Leggett Charmaine Rose “It was absolutely amazing. Without going to the show I don't know if I would have ever found my photographer or my florist. Without both of them the wedding wouldn't have been nearly as special with the moments that were captured and the beautiful flowers. They both made my dream wedding come true!” Photography by Scott Kelley Photography “We attended the bridal extravaganza in January of 2011 and found it incredibly helpful. We locked down our photographer, videographer, band and found our tuxedos at the event. It was a load off of our shoulders to have so many items checked off our list in one weekend. “ Photography by JW Baugh 4 Kaitlin Ferranti “When I first walked into the bridal extravaganza I have to admit it was extremely overwhelming. You have vendors as far as your eyes can see. I had actually attended the previous year for my sister but it's different when you are the bride and have all of the decisions to make for yourself. Regardless of it being overwhelming, it's extremely exciting in the same sense because the atmosphere is pure happiness and joy with all of the anxious brides envisioning and planning their special day. I personally went not expecting to book anything but more so to get ideas of what I'm interested in. I plan to have an outdoor wedding and to my surprise I did find a company that provided not only a tent, but linens, tables, chairs, and a dance floor all in one. So that took all of the headache of dealing with separate vendors Out of the picture. Getting all of the pamphlets and brochures was helpful as well because once you get home you get to sit down and really look everything up that you possibly never knew existed! Overall my experience was amazing and I would recommend it to anyone. Not to mention winning prizes is a big plus! ” Lucy Dee Anderson “The bridal extravaganza was a great place to get ideas about pretty much everything wedding related. I even learned about things that I didn't even think about and now know that I need! I loved all the samples, the photo booths and especially the fashion shows. ” 5 Tonika Greenwood Tiphany Robin Photography by Sacred Image Photography “I attended the bridal extravaganza in January 2012. At the time, I was a bride and a bridesmaid. The show is wonderful and a must-do. It is like a right of passage on your way to becoming a bride. We were able to hear live demonstrations from Divisi Strings (who we later booked) and taste some amazing cakes and food. It is a great step to starting the planning process.” Photography by Chris W. “Kyle has worked the extravaganza in Houston. It is a sensory stimulating event, that is for sure! The ideas and possibilities are limitless. As he was working at his booth, my best friend, Anna Schmidt, and I walked the floor multiple times. Make at least a day of it because there is so much to do and see, wear comfy walking shoes.” 6 Shireen Taylor Stacy McCarty “I would suggest every bride attend the Bridal Extravaganza Show at least once. My mom, Matron of Honor and I attended in January 2012. We had an absolute blast! I was able to make so many contacts with vendors and obtained a ton of information for planning. It is very organized and everything is set up perfectly for easy browsing.” Photography by Dustin Meyer I attended in July 2011 and was AMAZED at how many vendors were there! It was a great place to gather information, get tons of ideas, and knock some items off my to-do list! I was Maid of Honor for one of my best friends who was getting married that fall. She also served as my Matron of Honor a few months later, so we each walked around with double name-tags - one that said "Bride" and one that said "MOH." :-) The extravaganza can be overwhelming if you don't have a list or a plan, but it's great for gathering ideas and contacts!! Photography by JW Baugh 7 Deisy Deleon “It was a great and fun experience. I had a lot of fun with my two bridesmaids that went with me. I got some great ideas from vendors to use at my wedding. I won several prizes, which was also very exciting!” Rebekah Bibbs “For me, the experience I had at the bridal extravaganza was really important because it gave me the opportunity to be with my mom and feel like a bride. Due to my husbands deployment, I never really got to do that. Plus I learned a lot. After sampling every single cake there, my favorite flavor was absolutely not what I expected! Looking online is helpful, but seeing and experiencing different wedding aspects in person is different. I'm really glad I went. I had a blast and was able to check some important things off my list.” 8 To reach brides like these and help them plan the wedding of their dreams, contact the Bridal Extravaganza Show today.
