Pictures from the Bridal Show in January 2009

I typically hear from brides and groom's after a bridal show that it was overwhelming and they weren't prepared for all that they needed to encounter. I know that our brides and grooms we start telling them to go in with a game plan. Make a list of what vendors they are still looking for. Prior to attending the bridal show they go on to their web site and check their work out. After that they now compile a short list of who they need to check out. I ask that they engage good conversation with the vendors but to keep it short because of the time that they have in general.
So now that you have processed all of this then I want to share some pictures the Florida Bridal Expo in January at the University of Florida Hilton looked like. We know that as shows come and go we want you to be prepared. I hope these pictures will help you prepare as we head into the bridal shows in September.

Below are some amazing shots taken in a crowded ballroom Florida Bridal Expo in January 2009 at Hilton UF. Check out Djamel's pictures. Djamel is the owner of Elle Photography based out of Ocala, FL. He travels where ever his clients take him.

Another point we would encourage you to bring with you is "predone address" labels so when filling out forms you can just put one of those on it and be done. Make sure it includes the following items:

• bride's name
• groom's name
• date of wedding
• address of the bride
• phone number of the bride and groom
• email of the bride and groom
• city where the ceremony and reception are taking place

See you at the shows!!!
