Wedding Expos are one of the best places to wedding plan. Not only do you get to see and meet multiple vendors all in one day, without the pressure of having to book or sign contracts in the spur of the moment. Expos are designed to help you talk to multiple vendors, shop around, and really get to envision who and what you want for your big day. Typically there are tons of freebies and exclusive deals offered by the vendors too!

Decide in advance if you want to attend a show that has more of a boutique feel with fewer vendors at a smaller venue or a mega show in a large venue with lots of vendors and activities.
