How do you all find bridal expo's or fairs to participate in? I've been searching the web and can't seem to find anything?
Any suggestions?

I figure that way they can look at it at their leisure & contact me, otherwise I'll focus on the ones who stopped by the booth!

From my experience, the "brides 2 be" were more interested in all of the other details then about what to register for. Coupled with the fact that so many of them were (as a photographer at the table put it) lay-away brides - meaning that they weren't getting married for years.
I notice from this site, the few people who have gotten people to sign up, there hasn't been anything since.
There are a few ways to find bridal expos in your area. You can search online for bridal expos in your city or state. You can also check with local bridal shops or wedding planners, as they often have information about upcoming expos. Additionally, you can follow bridal expo social media pages or sign up for email newsletters from wedding websites for updates on upcoming expos.
The best time to attend a bridal expo is typically 6-12 months before your wedding date. This will give you enough time to gather information, make decisions, and book vendors for your big day. However, some expos may take place earlier or later, so it's important to check the specific dates of the expo you are interested in attending.
The cost to attend a bridal expo varies depending on the location and size of the event. Some expos are free to attend, while others may charge a small admission fee. It's best to check the website or social media pages of the expo you are interested in attending for information on admission fees.
At a bridal expo, you can expect to see a variety of vendors offering their services and products for weddings, such as photographers, florists, caterers, and more. There may also be fashion shows, workshops, and demonstrations. It's a great opportunity to gather ideas and meet potential vendors for your wedding.
It's a good idea to bring some basic information with you to a bridal expo, such as your wedding date, estimated budget, and a list of services or products you are still looking for. You may also want to bring a notebook and pen for taking notes, as well as your contact information to provide to vendors you are interested in working with. Some expos may also provide a swag bag for attendees to collect brochures and business cards from vendors.
