THE GREAT BRIDAL EVENT!

On March 7th, Crown Marketing/ Crown Event Rentals put on a bridal expo at Elite Sports Center in Parkersburg and we decided to make it our first bridal show.  I kept calling it our "coming out" party or Allie B's Bar Mitzvah.. Tim and I spend all day meeting and greeting brides and grooms and chatting it up about what we do for weddings.  It was a total blast!

We have had an overwhelmingly positive response to our work and couldn't be more excited to get going on wedding season this year!  We started out 2010 with five as a big goal, we hoped we could book 5 weddings and I am very very excited to say that only one week after The Great Bridal Event, we have met that goal! We have five wedding contracts on the books for 2010, from May-October and several other couples currently looking over our offerings. We still have open dates for 2010, so check with us if you need to save a date.

Big THANK YOU to Keith and Michelle McClung of Crown Marketing for putting on the show and making it great! The turnout was spectacular.  Also, big thank you to Tina Nichols of Real Life Photography for taking a few pics of our booth.  Can't forget to thank my husband and his brother for building/moving and tearing down our setup and being awesome in supporting this huge journey into bridal shows.  My husband Tim was wonderful at the show, greeting all the couples and making sure I wasn't overly exerting my 9 month pregnant self.. which I am sure I did anyway, but it was totally worth it! I love you all!

Goofin' off before the couples came in..
