  • Introducing Our Loyalty Program – Celebrating 50 Years of Excellence!

    To mark 50 years of excellence, we are introducing our Loyalty Program. Exhibitors benefit from consistent flat-rate pricing, flexible payment plans, and priority booth selection. This program makes planning easier and ensures long-term value for loyal participants

    The Benefits Of Loyalty Membership

    The Bridal Bazaar Loyalty Program is designed to simplify your participation, save you money, and elevate your brand above the competition. Unlike other shows, our program isn’t about locking you into traps, it’s about building a partnership that benefits you as much as it benefits the show.

    1. One Flat rate Per Booth Across Shows

    One flat rate per booth across shows means no surprises, no seasonal price jumps, and easier budgeting, making it simple to plan ahead and track results.”

    2. Easy Monthly Installments

    No hefty disbursements, no large upfront deposits, just easy, affordable payments that keep participation simple and stress-free

    3. Priority Booth Selection

    As a Loyalty Exhibitor, you’ll choose your booth first, before Early Bird and general participants, with priority access in capped categories

    4. Premium Online Listing

    Showcase your business with a photo, bio, and link in our online directory. Your listing stays live until the next show, giving you visibility before and after the event.

    5. Only Two-Show Enrollment

    Enroll for just two shows, February and April, with the option to add a third at the same flat rate. No automatic renewal.

    .

    6. Streamlined Paperwork

    Just one agreement per year for both shows, plus easy renewal to secure your booth.

    Don’t Miss Out!

    Loyalty Program exhibitors get a one-week priority window, October 6–10, 2026, for the February 1st Winter Show. Enrollment continues afterward, but booth selection opens to all.

    Maximize Your Success: Top 9 Tips for Exhibitors at the Bridal Bazaar

    Maximize Your Bridal Bazaar Experience: Tips Before, During, and After the Show

    Exhibiting at the Bridal Bazaar is an exciting opportunity to connect with engaged couples and showcase your business. To help you make the most of this experience, we’ve partnered with Lindsay J. Williams, an expert in marketing and sales for wedding professionals, to provide you with practical tips for before, during, and after the show.

    Before the Show: Set the Foundation

    1. Define Your Goals: Are you looking to book consultations, collect leads, or simply increase brand awareness? Knowing your goals will help you shape your strategy and measure your success.
    2. Prepare an Irresistible Offer: Stand out by creating a show-exclusive promotion or giveaway. This will encourage attendees to engage with you and remember your business after the event.
    3. Design a Captivating Booth: Your booth should reflect your brand and draw people in. Use high-quality signage, cohesive décor, and interactive elements to make a lasting impression.
    4. Leverage Pre-Show Marketing: Announce your participation on social media, email your list, and even collaborate with other exhibitors to promote your presence. Share details about your booth location and any special offers attendees can expect.

    During the Show: Engage and Connect

    1. Be Approachable: Smile, make eye contact, and engage with attendees as they walk by. A friendly demeanor can make all the difference in creating meaningful connections.
    2. Collect Quality Leads: Use a sign-up sheet, QR code, or digital form to gather contact information. Include a checkbox for couples to indicate if they want to schedule a consultation or receive more information.
    3. Have a Conversation, Not a Sales Pitch: Focus on building relationships rather than immediately trying to close a sale. Ask open-ended questions about their wedding plans to show genuine interest.
    4. Stay Organized: Take notes on your conversations so you can personalize your follow-ups. A quick jot-down about what stood out about a couple can go a long way.

    After the Show: Follow Through for Success

    1. Follow Up Quickly: Reach out to your leads within 48 hours of the show while the experience is still fresh. Personalize your emails to reference specific conversations or details.
    2. Provide Value: Send helpful resources, such as a planning checklist or tips for their wedding day, along with your follow-up email. This builds trust and keeps you top of mind.
    3. Evaluate Your Performance: Review your goals and see how you measured up. Reflect on what worked, what didn’t, and how you can improve for future shows.
    4. Stay Connected: Nurture your leads by adding them to your email list, engaging with them on social media, and sharing valuable content regularly.

    By following these tips, you’ll not only maximize your time at the Bridal Bazaar but also set yourself up for long-term success.
