didn't really get to read the recent posts here except for one mention of a grand showcase. is this the showcase for SC brides? just want to let you know that even if they said it's ONLY for the bride+groom, you can definitely bring other ppl with you! me & hubby went and didn't bring anyone (because that's what they said) but was surprised that a lot of couple brought their parents with them!

also, be prepared to eat... lots of food and it's just a sampling of the feast you'll get on the day-of!

HTH!

The last big showcase I went to had no food...just basic drinks. Will the one in September have food?

As much as I would love to come, I start grad school at the end of this month and I am literally either interning, working, or in school 7 days a week- maybe on one of the breaks I can make it to one

Just registered for showcase! You can bring whoever, they just want headcount.

Are we still trying for a SC girls brunch on 9/18?

The invite just says a wine and champagne bar...nothing about food. I went to the last grand showcase and there was no food. I wish there was!!

Just wanted to let you guys know for anyone still looking for photo that Patken went above and beyond for SC brides!!! I met with them yesterday and they gave an awesome price, not to mention all the little extras, extra time, enhancements, etc. that I wanted they threw in no charge. There pics really were impressive and they are definitely on our list!

Anyone have any recommendations for DJ/Bands for Sand Castle?
I know they recommend Genesis Events, but is anyone using another company?
