This June the Houston Bridal Extravaganza in the George R. Brown Convention Center came to life with bustling brides, bubbly vendors, and the entertainment opportunities from wedding dress fashion shows, to re ghters strutting the catwalks in custom tted suits, or live DJs playing music or setting o their fog machines.
Before the show opens to the public, VIP brides line up to receive their bonus gifts and early access into the exhibit hall. Full of excitement, these exclusive access brides wore sashes with glittery gold and silver courtesy of Bridal Party Gifts by Laura Lu, bridal tiaras that lit up, and customized tote bags full of little surprises.
Once inside, brides took in the view of rows and rows of vendors- all ready to strike up conversations and give away discounts and merchandise to customers.
By the end of the show, guests could nd themselves ready to book with makeup and hair stylists, videographers, photographers, wedding dress appointments, venue tours, or catering and cake tastings.
With this and everything in between, the event was an all-inclusive, one-stop shop for the dream wedding. Full of the retellings of many beautiful love stories, the sounds of laughter and excitement, and aisles lled with businesses to mix and mingle with, this wedding shopping experience cut out the pain of planning the perfect wedding alone.
PSA to all of the 2026 brides-to-be: Don’t miss the next Houston Bridal Extravaganza- happening January 24 and 25, 2026 in the George R. Brown Convention Center!
