Score deals and save hundreds! Many exhibitors will offer specials and discounts at the show.
Giveaways, prizes, discounts, and samples will be offered by the exhibitors.
A wedding show is a fun way to spend the day with your bridal party, mom, and/or fiancé! Get answers to your questions, advice and special deals from local wedding experts, and inspiration for your big day! You may even win prizes and giveaways. This is your chance to plan your entire wedding under one roof.
We suggest bringing a pen & paper to take notes, your phone to add contacts and take pictures, and a calendar to make appointments. You may decide to make a deposit, so bring along your checkbook or credit card. Knowing your wedding date and having a color scheme in mind, along with a binder filled with inspiration, can be a huge help when communicating your vision to vendors. Com fortable shoes are a must. Print ed address labels with your name, phone number, email, wedding date, and venue will save your hand from cramping from the constant writing. No need to bring a bag for all your pamphlets and goodies—we provide those at the door!
That’s totally up to you! Whether it’s just you and your fiancé, your mom and maid/matron of honor, or your entire bridal party, we welcome everyone to our events!
Children are welcome to attend our shows, and kids under 6 years old get in free! However, since we recommend planning to spend at least half a day at our shows, we advise against bringing children because they may tire easily. If you decide to bring a little one along, keep in mind that strollers are difficult to maneuver around the booths, displays, and other guests.
General admission tickets are $15 at the door, but we suggest buying tickets online to save time and money. Use promo code SHOW5 to save Your ticket grants you access to the show floor, exhibitors, features, and fashion shows.
With your ticket admission, every engaged attendee will receive a free issue of the brand new 2026 Today’s Bride magazine and a handy pink tote bag! (While supplies last)
Upgrade your show experience with a Beauty Bundle ticket! For only $40, receive a deluxe gift bag filled with beauty goodies and special offers from top brands, making it the perfect keepsake from your day of indulgence.

Making a decision as big as hiring your wedding vendors is scary no matter when you do it. Procrastinating won’t make your decision any easier, so why wait?
The vendors who will be exhibiting at the Today’s Bride Wedding Shows are reliable and experienced. They are not random Joe Schmoes who sell you a deal and then run off with your deposit. Because they've invested in their booth space, you can rest assured that they will do everything they can to make your wedding perfect.
The majority of vendors offer show specials. This means they have special packages or discounted rates that are exclusive to show attendees and only offered for a limited time! If you go home to think it over and decide three months later to book the vendor, you may end up paying more than you would have if you booked at the show.
Most vendors are already booking their 2026, 2027, and beyond calendars! By making your deposit at the show, you're reserving your date, so it cannot be booked by any other couple. If you wait too long, you might end up without your favorite DJ, be forced to change your date, or have to choose a different vendor instead.
You’re going to meet with the best in the industry at a Today’s Bride Wedding Show! These professionals set standards, predict new trends, and execute award-winning work. Sure, hiring your second cousin to do photography may be cheaper, but if you want quality, experience, and professionalism, look to the experts at the show.
Don’t sneakily research florists at work or fill your weekends with appointments and consultations. By booking the professionals at the Today’s Bride Wedding Show, you’ll have less to stress about and more time to spend with your fiancé.
Some up-and-coming trends will be on display at the show. If you want your wedding to be unique and memorable, don’t wait to book these incredible new ideas and innovative technologies.
Remember, always read your contract fully before signing, and never place a deposit without a contract!
Save yourself time, money, and stress by booking vendors at our wedding shows. Most of the wedding pros you meet will be offering a special, discount, or savings of some sort that you won't find anywhere else! Get ready to say "I Do" to big savings. From finding your photographer to booking your venue, the cost of a wedding can add up quickly. That's why it's important to come to the Today's Bride Wedding Shows. Save HUNDREDS on your wedding with the show specials, discounts, savings, and giveaways.
