Busy with Bridal Shows

Louisville in January is packed with bridal shows every weekend and sometimes several in one day. I attended one as ICVideo at Gingerwoods and the Ultimate Bridal Services Winter Wedding Show at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium we promoted Something Blue Collective.

Thursday

We had horrible luck with the weather when the snow storm came through.  Attendance at the Gingerwoods show was slower than usual, but we did talk with some great brides early in their planning.  SBC vendors included Robert Burge Photography, Deanna Kaye Photography, Couture Closet, Ladyfingers Caterers, and ICVideo.

Robert with Robert Burge Photography helped take some great pictures of the vendors booths.  Robert had beautiful photos on display.  The picture of the bride pulling up the groom's kilt in the back always makes the moms blush.  It's one of my favorites.  Watch Robert's video that explains the difference between photojournalistic and portrait style photography.

 

Deanna and Eric with Deanna Kaye Photography  talked with brides about their great albums.  In their video they explain what the added benefits are when you chose a husband and wife team to photograph your wedding.  Deanna generously donated a free engagement session with 8x10 for our SBC drawing at the end of this month.  Be sure to enter on the contact page of the website.

 

The ladies at Ladyfingers Catering were busy with everyone tasting their delicious food and answering questions.  In their SBC video they inform you of the different options of dinner service.  One popular service is the partial plated dinner.  Watch the video to learn more.

Tera and Lauren with the Couture Closet displayed a few of their fabulous wedding dresses.  They give great advice on how to pick your dress to appropriately match the style, time and season of your wedding in their SBC video.

 

Jane and the members of The Highland Chamber Players were on hand to serenade the bride and grooms.  Their SBC video will be posted this week.  Jane gave some great advice on what to consider when booking a music ensemble for your wedding.

Sunday

We did get some great feedback from brides that had visited our SBC website.  Most brides were curious to know how we could provide such a great resource for free for to all to view.  One bride was so excited about the site she admited to having our postcard taped to her monitor so she can visits it often.  Carol Grisanti had a bride approach her because she saw her video giving suggestions on the importance of hiring a wedding planner and how they can add to you event.  And the best.....one bride informed us that she booked her caterer from our website.  This is so great because I know she got a quality vendor along with a lot of great info.

It took a lot of work, but we have created a website that is entertaining with elite vendors educating brides and grooms on how to plan their perfect wedding.  This has been a great day!!
