Show Tips

Pre-Show Planning

Show Program:

Look for the Official Show Guide for the Wonderful Wedding Show in Wonderful Weddings Magazine which is distributed FREE to everyone at the show. Wonderful Weddings Magazine and Show Guide contains the floor plan and exhibitor listings so you can plan whom you need to see at the show. The exhibitors are listed alphabetically and by booth number so you will know exactly where to find them. There are hundreds of exhibitors so the floor plan & listing will be very helpful!

Address Labels:

It is highly recommended that before the show, you should print labels with your full name, address, postal code, email address, phone number, and wedding date. Having these labels will save valuable time when entering the numerous prize draws & contests at the show. When entering draws, instead of having to repeatedly write all your information down, simply peel off one of your personal address labels and place on the ballot form!

Bring Pen & Paper:

In addition to your smartphone, it is also a good idea to bring along a pen and paper so you can make notes about the various exhibitors as needed. After visiting hundreds of displays, it’s easy to forget which ones you were interested in!

Dress Comfortably:

The show has over 100,000 square feet of displays, so be sure to dress comfortably and wear comfortable shoes. Also keep in mind that you may be actually trying on gowns at the show so wear sensible undergarments and clothing that will be easy to change in and out of.

Coat Check:

There will be a coat check available for your convenience at the show, but leave any valuables at home as items placed in the coat check will be left at your own risk.

Who to Bring:

The best thing about the Wonderful Wedding Show is that you can bring your entire wedding party all at once if you want! Or try planning on bringing your bridal party and mothers one day, and your intended on the next day.

Show Day

Which day to attend:

Although thousands of visitors attend the show each day, the busiest day is usually Saturday, so if you want to try to avoid the crowds, Sunday afternoon might be a good time to attend.

Visiting Exhibitors:

If you arrive early you will find you can avoid the crowds if you start at the back (north side) of the hall, instead of the front where everyone usually starts, and then work your way up to the front (south side). Also be sure to make notes after visiting with exhibitors so you will remember which exhibitors you are interested in.

Comparison shopping is easy at the show because instead of running all over the city, everything is all under one roof!

Post Show

Wonderful Weddings Magazine & Show Guide:

Be sure to hang onto the Wonderful Weddings Magazine and Show Guide after the show is over as you will find it makes a great reference guide. Many brides find it difficult to remember the numerous exhibitors and information from the show, so the Show Guide will be a valuable tool.

What to do with the information you have collected:

Many couples take the information they receive at the show & organize it into a 3-ring binder. Simply sort out the information you’ve collected in your shopping bag into service categories and place in the binder in order of priority. Presto! An instant wedding planner!
