You get a chance to meet with different vendors including DJs, photo/video, limos, florists, etc. You have a chance to ask them questions and get as much information as possible. Have fun, girls!

I'm going to one at Crest Hollow on Jan 16, I'm mainly going to see flowers since I have to choose from their vendors. Everything else (besides limos) is already booked.

Re: DUMB QUESTION
We haven't met with florists yet! We booked so many things at once and put so many payments down that we wanted to take a little break. Plus, I HATE flowers and wanted to put it off as long as possible. We're going to probably start looking after the showcase :)

DUMB QUESTION
They are fun! A little bit of advice: if you haven't done so already, make up a 'wedding only' email address. I made the mistake of signing up for a showcase using my regular email and one day I woke up to 100+ emails. And they don't stop!!! The same companies will email you over and over and over again (it is a business after all). It's much easier to deal with when using a separate account. Especially after the wedding day is over and you can just forget the email address exists!
