Don’t Be A Wedding Sheep, It’s All About EWE!
Planning on doing something different for your wedding day and don’t know where to start? Maybe your looking for a Gothic wedding dress or a Doctor Who themed wedding cake? Or maybe you just want to start at the beginning and find a planner that understands ‘your style’? Well there’s a new wedding show in town, promising to be like no other wedding show you’ve ever seen or been to before.
The Eclectic Wedding Extravaganza takes a different approach to wedding shows, catering to couples who want their weddings to be all about them and their personality. Their motto, “don’t be a wedding sheep…..it should be all about EWE!!” A wedding show that caters to all types of wedding styles from the Gothic to the Bohemian to punk rock and geeky. The brainchild of three industry professionals – Sassy of Assassynation, Jo of The Couture Company and Vikki of Lillia, the eclectic trio have all hand picked the suppliers for the show. Chosen for their “talent, customer service and great personalities we are challenging the suppliers to create amazing spaces to showcase their work (rather than your usual trestle table with stuff on!)…this will make it more exciting..!”
Not only will there be some unique and fresh suppliers but also a fashion ‘walkabout’ showcasing gorgeous dresses. Loads of fantastic prizes to be won and some fun demonstrations will be going on for a totally interactive experience, promising to be nothing like you’ve ever seen at other wedding shows. On November 4th, 2012 check out all the Baad Ass Mother-Flockers at the first Eclectic Wedding Extravaganza show taking place at Fazeley Studios, Digbeth, Birmingham UK!
