Ok so me and my partner are going to our first wedding fair on March 3rd (a while off I know) and just really want to know what to expect really as we aren't entirely sure. We are hoping to get help with venues? Would they be there? Any helpful information is grately recieved. Thanks you very much!

Firstly... There is lots to offer normally
Be careful what u say...for example if u haven't booked your venue yet, a lot of the suppliers won't give u the time of day I used to notice! Which is unfair!
Take a list of budgets for things with you!
Don't let the sales ppl be pushy... If they say they have set deals for that day,this isn't necessarily true, write the deals down because u should be able to get them by haggling in the shop itself when u actually need to book that item!
Take as much info as u can get!
Go EARLY... Especially if there is a free goodie bag because they go quickly,if u go later u may miss out on picking one up

And lastly.... ENJOY yourself :-D

Thank you (: I'm weridly nervous! I really want to start planning but to be honest neither me or my partner are sure of budgets etc as we have no idea how much a wedding cost! All we budgetted for seperately are our wedding clothes! We have a date and rough number for wedding/ reception. Plus we don't know if we want a church wedding or to do it at one place to save transport ...

Also if you've been reading any wedding magazines or have pictures of what you'd like for certain things,take them with you as this will give the suppliers a good idea of what u want, also the same with themes or any colour ideas u may have x

We have a colour theme, looked on EBay with a friend the other night at little things like favours (didn't know about them!), wedding guest book and table decs which are really nice but cheap. But yes by the sounds of it I will get there early! Getting excited now!!

You'll end up with lots of emails afterwards. They are great for looking at different venues, toastmasters, setting up companies etc. have fun, take their info, but don't be talked into signing up there and then. I'm going to one, as I met a photographer, she's going to a fair I want to use her, and will go to try and book it then to get a better deal.
