The Connecticut Bridal Expo is a fantastic place to find ideas for your wedding or to explore all the new trends in weddings. With all the vendors and items you need in one place, it’s a big time-saver. Many couples can plan their entire wedding in a single weekend. You can pre-register online (and go in the draw to win prizes), but tickets can only be purchased at the door. The Bridal Expo is in Hartford, Connecticut and usually runs for two days.

Tips & Warnings

Tickets are inexpensive—usually $10 or less per person.
Note that registration is optional—either way, tickets can only be purchased at the door.
The Bridal Expo Web site offers you the chance to win great prizes if you pre-register, as well as a discount coupon for admission.
You'll be on your feet all day, so wear comfortable clothes and shoes.
Take a camera along with you—when you’re talking with salespeople at your bridal store, a photo will help you explain what you want.
Take a notebook and pens with you, too, for writing down details about photographers and other wedding service providers. You’ll talk to a lot of vendors and salespeople over those two days. You can get their business cards for contact details, but it helps to have a notebook for writing down any other important information.
Spend your time wisely—if you’ve already got certain services booked, don’t waste your time looking at vendors with those services (you’ll only end up worrying about whether you chose the right one).
