Only one full day has passed since the end of the November 2011 Bridal show and I’ve already recouped all costs associated with it by booking a $5000 wedding.  (This is before the parents buy the bride and groom any photographic gifts.)   I’ve covered the cost of renting the booth, sponsoring Last Bride Standing as well as all associated costs with creating samples and flying my sister across the country to help man my booth.

It was an amazing show, well planned and executed.  The number of couples that came through the door over the weekend has left my sister’s and my voice a little hoarse.  We didn’t have time to get lunch or supper and barely any to drink water between speaking to so many potential clients.

The TBS passport/mystery booth draw was also a very effective tool in bringing potential clients to our booth.  Those few seconds needed to stamp a card were plenty in order to create a meaningful connection with the couple and speak to them as well as assess their photographic needs.

Every time the fashion show ended we were swamped with couples, some waiting five or six minutes so we could spend a quality 30 or so seconds at a minimum to speak to each couple.

In all it was a very hectic and productive weekend.

I can’t wait for what is in store for the April show!

Sincerely,

“Amazing – Best show yet”

“It’s a very nice, excellent show. Everything was spik and span, & organized systematically. We enjoyed our time very much. We wish for a bright future to Toronto’s Bridal Show.”

“Great Show!”

Hi Nina,

It was a pleasure meeting you the other day in the show. It was a well planned bridal show contest I must say that. Well take care and keep in touch. Have a wonderful day!!!!!!!!

Warm Regards,

WOW! A job well done I must say! I just wanted to extend my most sincerest thanks in motivating our Rosarium team to participate in your one of a kind bridal show. It has been a thrill working with you and your entire production team. I am happy to inform you that we have already received some positive feedback from the show and are anxious to see how many hits we receive overall through the Bridal Show. Again, I wish to extend my thanks and best wishes, and I look forward to working again with you in the near future.

Best regards,

Hi Nina,

The show as great, thanks so much for letting Cineflix be a part of it. Hope none of your brides got too sleepy, looked like a crazy contest!
Cheers,

Hi Teale,

Hope you are recovering from the weekend. You and the rest of the team at Long Valley Productions really out did yourselves.

I had the most wonderful time meeting so many new people. I wanted you to know some of the feedback from the people that stopped by my booth. They all thought the show was a really different take on the traditional bridal show contest making them feel relaxed and unintimidated by the vendors and surroundings, the vendors were all really professional and friendly NOT snooty. The fashion show was great! Whoever picked Allegria for the opening song…it gave me goosebumps! Awesome.

Hi Nina!

Great to meet you and honestly congrats on the bridal show contest. I’ve been to a TON of conventions and shows over the years and you really did a good job.

See you soon, and congrats again!

Hi LVP Team,

Congratulations on an amazing bridal show this weekend! I just wanted to send a huge THANK YOU to you for everything you did to allow us to be apart of this amazing opportunity and so we could raise awareness for Make-A-Wish® Canada It’s because of the support of individuals like you (and of course Long Valley Productions) that we are able to make wishes come true. We have already received a great response from the show – you have no idea what an opportunity like this means to us. I hope the success was as big a success for you as it was for us
