Did you know that about 30% of engagements occur in the month of December? Did you know that majority of weddings occur in the months of June, August or September?
If you fall under those statistics, then by February, you are probably in the wedding planning stage. You’ve probably have been immersed in pinning and absorbing tons of tips from a multitude of websites and magazines.
What if there was a way to actually meet the professionals in your own area and see samples of their work to help your planning process go so much smoother? Well, it sounds like you need to go to Wedding Expos!
Never fear! Wedding and Bridal Expos/Showcases are happening in the DMV area! These are events in which you can meet the vendors and see samples of their work, so that you may choose them to be involved in your wedding. There are caterers, planners, floral designers, and the like.
Here a few you may want to check out in the next couple of months!
