Get Ready to Say 'I Do': Register at Our Bridal Fair for Exclusive Offers!

[lockhartkitchen]

When I'm at a bridal fair, my goal is to register weddings on site. I take their information, and enter their information when I get home. This is what those who register with me get: The tri-fold that PC makes for weddings, the well stocked kitchen sheet, a full-size catalog, and a wedding registry card.

Those who don't register, but are interested get the tri-fold, a mini-catalog, and a wedding registry card (The ones from Merrill I had made so they can see what can go inside their invitations).

I have the wedding registry summary posted on my display table
I hand out the business sheet to those vendors who are interested in working with me: florists, tuxedos, etc.

Julie,
Thanks for the information about Bridal Booths.I was wondering what you would think of putting the tri-fold brochure in a neat display bag decorated in a wedding theme? I am not very crafty at all. I have trouble seeing things to fruition. Could you explain how you decorated your table? TIA

Can you tell me exactly what you ordered from Merrill? I was looking online and didn't see exactly what that could be. Thanks!

I can't access Merrill right now. I'll look tomorrow and see if I can find the item number. I'll download pictures later, but here's what I did. The tables were already covered in a white linen. I covered that with a lace table cloth. In the center of the table I had a box that I covered with my PC blue apron material table cloth. I had it so Pampered Chef showed in the front. On top I put the 12 inch ss pan with top ramen and a recipe in it. I had a serving spoon inside it. I also had the 10 inch non-stick pan there too with a can of corn with the can opener attached to it. I had the 3-tier stand with med bowl, med. square and large square on it. Appetizer plates and caddy, a dotted bowl, batter bowl with tools inside, cooling rack with large stone with handles on it, mini serving spatula, large grooved cutting board with citrus press and a real lemon (some people tried it out). 2 prep bowls with mini whisk. Just to name a few off the top of my head. I used items from the well stocked kitchen list. I made out a plan ahead of time of how I was going to lay out the table. I had One catalog open, mini-catalogs spread out, my business card holder with my wedding cards and a pamphlet holder with the 3-fold wedding flyer. I had my flip chart open with the weddin registry summary in it. I had recipe cards on a medium square. My favorite: The Covered Baker up front with the new lasagna recipe inside.

Merrill doesn't carry, as far as I can see, the cards that I have that let people know you are registered with the Pampered Chef. Does anyone know if these are still available somewhere? The date on mine is 2006- Knowing Merrill just another thing gone.

We have a very large bridal expo here, and I'd love to get in on it, but the cost is about 1K for a 2 day booth! eekkkkk!

 

[tlag1986]

That is high, but I think it is about the going rate for the larger expos.

I noticed this old thread; does anyone have a current well stocked kitchen flyer?

 

[Curlyone]

here is the one from the site

 

[byrd1956]

Is this current, as in, included the new product coming in March? I noticed the dots dinnerware set and thought, maybe it is a past version.

Unfortunately, these types of things aren't updated until the start of the new season. I wish that wasn't the case as I have a bridal expo on Saturday!!! It's just information and suggestions for them to use to set up their registries. I think what we are going to do is include the one we have and then just tell them to wait until March 1st to set the rest of their registry up. I usually take there basic information and set their registry up for them with just one item on it. Then they get the information from HO about the set up and a catalog and they can go to town.

 

[byrd1956]

I have one Sat., too. I think I will wait til the new one comes out. Maybe use the wish list instead...or nothing then mail the new one to the future brides. Would you be willing to post the new one when it comes out? For some reason I am not even finding the old one when I browse cc. Thank you and good luck Saturday.

 

[yankfan24]

Good suggestion for the wish list...I might include both. The WSK list is found on the wedding registry site. I've always gone in to my website, wedding registry and then on the home page at the bottom of the big picture, it says "Well-Stocked Kitchen". Click on that and at the bottom left corner of the page it says "Print List".
