MUSIC SHOWCASE Discover the perfect music to complement your big day with the help of our Music Showcase!

It’s an age-old question: What music should you play at your wedding reception? What vibe are you trying to set? What music do you like — and what will your guests enjoy the most? Every wedding is unique — that’s why the 2024 EsthetixMD Cascades Wedding Show will host a variety of live musicians from across the region to help you make a well-informed decision!

FASHION SHOW Discover the perfect gowns, tuxes and accessories. The annual fashion show is a favorite part of the Cascade Wedding Show that features the wedding trends of the year.

Meet the 2024 Fashion Show Host You walk up our stairs to the bright white rooms of wedding dresses. Panoramic windows line all sides of our shop, letting natural light pour in so you actually know what your dress will look like at your wedding. Overlooking downtown Bend, you and your most important people get to browse around the shop, and touch and feel the dresses.

Our stylists are knowledgeable and fun, but most importantly, down-to-earth. We are not snooty fashion people, and we pride ourselves on that! This process should be easy and fun, not scary and nerve-racking. We are here to lead you through what seems like a big purchase, but turns out to be a life moment.

Once you are a Bella Bride, you are invited to our Dress Encore event— every September, we host a barhop through downtown Bend where everyone wears their wedding dresses again. It is an absolutely phenomenal time, and we are beyond proud of it!

We are LGBTQ+ friendly and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

GREEN WEDDINGS Keep the Earth in mind by creating a sustainable event with less waste with environmental and climate concerns on the rise, more couples are taking an eco-friendly approach. That may mean using fewer disposable products, cutting down on fossil fuel or emissions associated with the big day or focusing on sustainable practices. Taken together, these small changes can have a big impact on the world around you.

ECO-FRIENDLY VENDORS

STAY LOCAL

GET CREATIVE WITH REUSE

POST-WEDDING RECYCLING

Start by looking for wedding-day vendors that share your focus on protecting the planet and creating a healthier environment. Whether it’s a reliance on sustainably created invitations or fun new creations like paper flower bouquets, they can do a lot for our environment simply by using materials that rely on recycled paper or alternative fibers. Other earthfocused companies pledge to plant a new tree with every order. Look for other environmentally sound practices on company websites and handout materials.

Borrow as many details as possible from the world around you. In this way, leaves can become placards. Vines and wildflowers are transformed into place settings at the reception. Upcycle glass jars, wine bottles or tin cans for creative decorative elements. Use chalkboards or acrylic pieces that can be customized with erasable markers, rather than printing hundreds of programs, menus and name cards. Look for second-hand wedding items at local thrift shops, online marketplaces or garage sales.

Destination weddings have been a growing trend, but staying closer to home reduces pollution and greenhouse gases. It may feel like a small step, but consider how much more stress those long plane trips and taxi rides are putting on the world around us. A couple of hundred invited guests means 50 or more ride-share fares, each way — and that’s leaving aside the flight to your faraway exotic locale. Stay local, and encourage carpooling. Consider hiring a shuttle to bring large groups of people.

Place someone in the wedding party in charge of recycling everything that can used again after your big day. Consider composting flowers so that these materials can fortify gardens or other beddings.

Private companies can also be hired to take care of certain eco-friendly chores.

They’ll collect flowers, for instance, and repurpose them as gifts at area nursing homes, hospitals or shelters. In this way, the joy of your wedding spreads even further into the community.

Congratulations Newlyweds 2024!
