Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal Show


Last Sunday, Perfect Wedding Guide hosted a bridal event at the Rosen Plaza Hotel for almost 600 brides and their family and friends.  When the ballroom doors opened at 11:00 AM, Blush, by Brandee Gaar had their booth looking beautiful and we were ready to meet these amazing women!  The room was full of all types of vendors, including photographers, videographers, bakeries, gown shops, DJ's, Florists, and even salons doing hair and make-up for brides right there at the show.  Needless to say, the place was jumping!  

We had such a wonderful time meeting everyone that came through the room and learning about their upcoming weddings.  Some brides came alone ready to get down to business, while others came with their mothers, bridesmaids, and other family and friends.  There were even some very brave grooms in the mix.  We loved hearing everyone's stories and ideas for their big day and we hope to be a part of some of them.  It was truly heartwarming to feel so much love throughout that big room.  

Throughout the afternoon, guests could wander through the main ballroom checking out different vendors, and then at designated times, they held a high-end fashion show next door in another ballroom.  Near the end of the day, they gave away door prizes and grand prize giveaways.  Three lucky brides won big at our booth.  The first door prize we gave away was a $50 American Express gift card.  Another bride and groom, that I had the pleasure of talking to at length about their big day, were the winners of our floral bouquet that was displayed at our booth.  It was a huge bunch of gorgeous pink calla lilies held together by wound pink wire.  As for the grand prize, one lucky bride will be the recipient of a free day-of planning package for her wedding.  I can't wait to meet the lucky bride and get started helping her with her wedding!

Overall, I believe the bridal show was a huge success and I know the members of Blush, by Brandee Gaar had a great time.  We want to give a big thanks to all the staff members at the Rosen Plaza Hotel and especially the staff of Perfect Wedding Guide for making the event run without a hitch.  Also, thank you to every bride, groom, mother, father, bridesmaid, groomsmen, and friend that attended the event.  There wouldn't have been an event to put on if it wasn't for you!  We hope to see you all again on February 8, 2009 at the Orlando World Marriott Center for the largest bridal event yet!
