***VENDOR GIVE-A-WAY*** Each vendor is required to participate in our vendor give-a-way. As we all know, vendor give-a-ways are one thing that attracts brides and grooms to bridal expos. Vendor give-a-ways must be something tangible that the winner(s) can walk away with after the show. Please stay away from such offers as a coupon for a 25% OFF, 50% OFF at time of booking, $300 OFF Engagement Photo Session offerings or a Complimentary 1-month Membership etc. This is fine if you are offering another gift that a bride-to-be and her groom can walk away with after the show. Please provide us with a detailed description of your vendor give-a-way(s) in the field below. During the show announcements, guest tickets will be randomly drawn and winners will be asked to claim their prize on stage or at your vendor table. Please keep in mind that a bridal show vendor give-a-way should be something tangible, useful, appealing, and branded when possible. Some great examples of vendor give-a-ways are: A Bridal Basket, Beauty Products, Charcuterie Board, a bottle of wine with wine accessories, Flute Champagne Glasses, A Fresh Floral Bouquet, a $25, $50, $75 or $100 Visa/MC Gift Card, Custom Water Bottles, Pre packaged Baked Goods, Custom Candy and Snacks, a Phone Stand, Health & Wellness items, a Tote Bag, Custom Notebooks & Notepads, a Portable Universal Charger, Home Decor items, Scented Candles, Lunch or Dinner Coupons, a Kitchen or Bathroom Accessory, etc.
