Bridal Showcase - My first one!

Greetings -

Today I attended my first bridal showcase, and let me tell you boy was it an experience.  Upon walking in the door I was immediately greeted by few familiar faces.  Turns out that my two of my Zumba students were working the event the registration desk.  They are such lovely ladies and they definitely gave me a warm welcoming feeling upon entry to the showcase.  The first thing that I received after filling out some paperwork was a nice little button saying "bride-to-be".  It is so cute!  I still have it and placed it on a bear that my fiance gave me for our first Valentine's Day. 

After placing my pin onto my jean jacket, I officially entered the showcase.  Let me tell you, talk about OVERWHELMING!  Lol.  I had people coming at me from left and right asking me for my information, congratulating me, etc.  It took a second for me to get used to all of the attention.  Who would have known, such a cute little pin would make you a target. I know now the power of the 'bride-to-be' pin!  LOL. 

The bridal showcase revealed so many things to me. One thing in particular - I've got a lot work to do!  Vendors were represented for every aspect of the wedding.  Being that I had nothing planned prior (believe it or not, I never really thought about my dream wedding) so I was pretty much starting from scratch.  The showcase offered me a good sense of direction.  My mom and I were able to obtain a lot of information and get a good idea for what was in store for us.

After getting home, I had bags of information.  So of course, I had to organize everything into piles.  See below: 
Now with all of this information just at my finger tips, I was officially ready to get started with the planning process. I definitely recommend attending a local bridal showcase to help give you some direction for planning your wedding.

So tell me, did you attend any bridal showcases?  If so, what was your experience like?
