Bridal Fairs Calendar

South Africa's Best...

Don't underestimate the value of attending a bridal fair. Take your partner, mum, bridesmaids, girlfriends or the whole gang along for a great day out.
Usually held in major conference or exhibition centres, reputable hotels, or reception venues, bridal fairs are held throughout the year and in most regions. You'll be able to speak to the service providers in the various fields, and get their expert opinion on the planning details of your wedding. You'll draw inspiration from all the amazing stands and you'll be able to visualize your own wedding. Bridal Exhibitions are a "not-to-be-missed" experience, and each bride should attend at least one expo while planning her wedding.

The Bride's Diary

The Bride's Diary is usually present at these bridal fairs where brides-to-be will be able to purchase a copy of the latest edition of The Bride's Diary at a special show price! Most times we sell previous editions at next-to-nothing rates as well! Make sure to visit our stand :)

That makes sense...

A good idea is to take a bag to put all the flyers you receive from the exhibitors into. At most of the shows, you do receive a plastic carry bag at the entrance, but with the amount of information you are getting, you might just run out of space, or the organisers could run out of bags. And there's nothing worse than carrying a whole bunch of flyers and pamphlets in your hands.

Also think about taking stickers with, which you can stick onto the flyers, or a permanent marker to mark the flyers of the service providers you would like to make contact with. There's nothing worse than emptying out the bag with flyers and not knowing who the ones where that you liked!

Visit our bridal fairs calendar regularly as it is constantly updated for your convenience.
