You’ll be getting a lot of information sent to the email that you register with at wedding shows, so it’s nice to have it all in one place separate from your work and/ or personal email. • Bring labels—many vendors offer prizes and contests, and additionally, you may want to request more information from selected vendors. By bringing pre-printed labels, you will save time and the hassle of having to complete this information booth after booth. Information that you might want to include: your name, address, phone, email (see bullet point above!), fiancé’s/fiancée’s name and when you’re getting married. • Don’t go it alone—bring one of your attendants, your mom or a friend (or dare we suggest, your fiancé/fiancée?). It will be helpful (and more fun!) to have their input and advice. • Bring a notebook—no matter how good your memory is you’ll want to take notes on vendors and ideas that catch your eye. • Bring a sturdy tote bag—you’ll be picking up business cards, brochures, etc. and it’s easier to stash it in a tote than try to carry it all in your hands...especially if you want to sample some of the yummy temptations offered at a lot of the events! Or, come to the shows where Real Weddings will be, come by our booth, and we’ll give you one of our groovy reusable bags! real Find up-to-date wedding event information at realweddingsmag.com/events 34 | REAL WEDDINGS SUMMER/FALL 2018 REALWEDDINGSMAG.COM
