I'm off to my 1st wedding fair today, is there any reason why I shouldn't book things there & then? Do the vendors normally do special offers at the wedding fairs? I have already had a quote for transport & they will be at the fair today, so if I like the cars as much as in the pics I will be booking them. I'm hoping to book a photographer & chair covers/table linens too.

No reason why you shouldn't book today if it's something you really want :)
We booked our suits at a wedding fair because they were doing a special offer. We also saw our entertainment (band and violinist) at the same wedding fair but waited to book as we wanted to check the band out and we wanted to double check figures to make sure we could afford the violinist, as it wasn't something we had expected to see and want. We saw some centre pieces we loved, luckily we didn't book them though as they were expensive and we've since decided on something much cheaper which will look just as effective.

I'm started to get addicted to wedding fairs! My first one I went to I provisionally booked our venue and paid deposit last week. I found the perfect photographer there too but didn't want to book because I didn't realise everything was going to start happening from now, but I'm at another one today and going to keep my out for others hopefully as good but cheaper. If I don't find anyone I'm going to contact the one we like after the fair :) x

Got loads of idea's from the fair we've just got back from :)
If you have your venue booked and date confirmed then there is no reason why you can't book there and then. Good luck :)

We'll that was interesting, I'm not a chatty person so found it hard to chat to loads of strangers but I did it. I booked a photobooth & spoke to some photographers, ideally I think I want a 2 man team though. Had a look at the cars & explained to the owner that ideally we wanted 2 vintage rolls Royce's, he has one but said his mechanic has an identical car, so he's going to speak to him & do me a deal :)

U can get loads of special offers,but it can be overwhelming! I used to love wedding fairs when we were at the beginning and they're a good place to be for extra discounts x

I found last weeks wedding fair overwhelming my head was bursting by the end of it. But I did get a great del on our cake and paid the deposit for it. Also got loads of other ideas and will go back again in October when it's on again.

I have fund most vendors are not looking or pushing you to book right there an then, they rxplain there package costs etc then givd you a booklet/flyer ask if you want to leave your details whichI always say no I will contact you. And quite often on flyers they have offers like 10% off if you book by .... Or if you quote this wedding fayre.
I find them great tho as I pick people party by cost but a big part on personality and if I get a good vibe from the people.
