Wedding Industry Trade Show
Noon-4:30pm
May 17, 2006
Diamond Oaks Country Club

Unlike the typical shows that Bridal Shows, Inc. produces, the Wedding Industry Trade Show is not a bridal consumer show, but a trade show with wedding professionals as the attendees instead of brides.

It is an opportunity for professionals in the same area of work to meet each other, network, discuss changing trends, and gain helpful information to achieve growth in their business.

Although this first Wedding Industry Trade Show will be small, we are confident it will continue to grow each year to be a valued source for building businesses in the wedding industry.

80 attendees made up of wedding-related companies have already registered. The trade show will have a conference type atmosphere and will provide three seminars, networking games, an optional buffet lunch, door prizes, and exhibitors geared towards helping you achieve further growth in your business.

If you wish to grow your wedding business and want to network with other professoinals then register to attend the Wedding Industry Trade Show today!!

If you or someone you know may be interested in exhibiting to wedding businesses, contact us by emailing info@bridalshowsinc.com.

This article is to help some of you who may have questions regarding the upcoming Wedding Industry Trade Show. Trade Shows are normally not open to the public—only to specific industries. The Wedding Industry Trade Show is not a bridal show. Brides will not be attending the trade show at all. This trade show is for anyone wanting to build a wedding business. For nineteen years now, our goal has been to help build businesses. This event is another step in that direction. Many industries have found the benefit for trade show across the country.We will work diligently each year to bring you new products and vendors to the market so that you have the best of all opportunities.

Even though there is so much information available on the internet, a trade show gives you the opportunity to learn directly from a vendor who can help you learn about new products, options that are available to you, details, immediate answers to questions, and helping you with solutions to certain challenges you may be having.

This trade show is a business to business conference to give wedding businesses insights into enhancing and growing their business through informative seminars and exhibits. This will also be a fun opportunity to network with other wedding businesses through the networking games at the trade show and win some fabulous door prizes. The Bridal Shows, Inc. booth will have many business books to give away as prizes to those of you would like to learn more.

This is a great opportunity to network with other businesses. Bring lots of business cards. We are looking forward to seeing you at the first Wedding Industry Trade Show.
