Before she can walk down the aisle, a bride-to-be must complete another kind of wedding march - this one a circuit of all the vendors she will need to plan her dream day.
But there's an easier way. The Times Free Press will gather those vendors under one roof tonight, Aug. 21, for the third annual Bridal Affair: Enchanted Evening. Prospective brides and grooms and other members of the wedding party can talk with caterers, florists, photographers, DJs, musicians, jewelers and owners of venues, bridal boutiques and formalwear shops - and many more providers of wedding products and services. With one stop, brides can get ideas and price comparisons.
Bridal gowns and bridesmaids dresses will be on display for up-close viewing. Many vendors will offer samples of their food and drink, and complimentary champagne and hors d'oeuvres will be served while you mingle.
Need a little pampering? Then don't forget to make time for a mini manicure or pedicure during the evening.
