I’d never been to a bridal show before, so I’m not really sure what I was expecting…(frilly dresses, standard photographers, auctions you never win, conventional desserts/cakes I can’t partake of & ????) Well there was plenty of that, but I have to say unexpectedly, the Bridal Premiere Show at the Hyatt Westlake Village was fan-freakin’-tastic!!! In addition to the aforementioned, there were BEAUTIFUL DISPLAYS from florists, wedding planners… even information on customized “African safaris” that help to maintain & support the local eco-system! There were FREE MASSAGES courtesy of In Touch Day Spa in Thousand Oaks. There were artistic photographers struttin’ there stuff. A company called “Mi Belle” had a decked out display with a whole funky lounge they set up that I wanted to steal for my own living room!
Another photographer, “MARK AYOUB” had the JAZZIEST business cards (they were see through, & indescribably cute) I’ve ever seen! I’d consider hiring him based on the cuteness of his media alone…he also had this stunning photo display made up many smaller photos:

My cell phone takes HORRIBLE pictures (that, & I have no clue how to adjust the settings. I guess guerilla-style, impropmtu photo journalism isn't my thing, but hopefully you get SOME idea of how great this HUGE display was!??
)
Some other honorable mentions, who’s work I didn’t get pictures of, (boo!) but who were “wow-ers” in person:
Notjustanyoldday.com-Personalized calendar keepsakes, AND the owner’s daughter is a hottie vegan!
Spa Escapes -(trying to locate their web address…also gave a sample massage w/an electric hand held cute thingamajig & had a salt scrub “manicure in a bottle” that made our hands look fab!)
So hopefully you catch my drift. Just trust, if you have a bridal show happening in a neighborhood near you, married or single, scamper over & get some “pamprings”! It was F-U-N!!

Thanks for including us on your blog! And what a great blog it is! A must add for my daily blog reading!
You are way too sweet! It was a short meeting, but it didn’t take long for me to see that you two were super sweet, gorgeous and fabulously in love. You and your fiance were the last couple we spoke with at the show, and that was really a great way for us to end an awesome show.
Thanks again!
Rose!!
Your booth seriously knocked us out!! All of the attention to detail that was paid to every little touch, (the ribbons on the info. you handed out, the cocktail tables, the BEAUTIFUL knock your socks off business cards & stationary that matches your website) was just outstanding!!! You are truly an original & I pray that you & your (husband’s?) business continues to flourish & brighten the world w/your above & beyond gifts!! Thanks for the blog love, & the oh-so-sweet compliments as well!!:) C
Now I’m really really sad I missed it. Next time for sure.
