It's off to the show we go...

The Fall National Bridal Show was on Saturday. We woke up BRIGHT and EARLY at the crack of 8:00am (lol) and drove down to Mississauga. Found ourselves a parking spot and skipped like giddy schoolgirls in to the building. Well, I did, at least!
The first stop was a rack sale of wedding gowns. It was funny to see the different styles my mom and my sister had. I tried on a few, but fit into none. Rob threatened to leave if I forced him to wait more than 6 minutes anyways :) so we went into the exhibits.
My GOD! There is so much we didn't account for, it not like you have one option, so you have to take it. There were about 5-7 limo rental places, same with cakes! It was unreal! I think Rob was overwhelmed by the amount of tuxedo rental places, even he had his hands full by the end of the day.
We found a couple of places we were interested in, DJ102, Nancy's Sweets, Piper Studios.... but we now have to sit and look at our budget and decide which arm to cut off to pay these people... lol
It's no wonder the wedding industry is the largest industry around....

The First Wedding Show

So, my wedding season has officially began! Next weekend is the first bridal show I will attend as a bride, not a bridesmaid or simply a friend of the couple... I will be the bride! How awesome is that? I mean, bridal shows are fun and all... lots of free stuff and cake tasting (which is by far my favourite part)

I figure, I'll be able to scope out photographers, videographers, limo, musician, DJ, CAKE!! You never know what kinds of deals you'll get. Plus, the fashion shows are great! You can see what styles of dresses are in style, and how they look on real people - none of this size 0 model thing.

Plus, my mom is coming, which, I have to admit, I'm looking forward to. This will be our first "Mother-Daughter" wedding task that we complete together.

I'll let you know how it goes this weekend!
