Final Tips for Conquering the Harrisburg Wedding Show 💡
To make the most out of your Sunday at the National Civil War Museum, here are a few pro-tips:
Create a Wedding Email Address: Before you go, create a dedicated email address (e.g., SmithWedding2027@gmail.com). Use this to sign up for giveaways and contact vendors. It will keep your personal inbox free from spam and keep all your wedding planning organized in one place!
Bring Pre-Printed Address Labels: You are going to be filling out a lot of contact sheets and giveaway entries. Print out a sheet of labels with your Name, Wedding Date, Email, and Phone Number. You can just slap a sticker on the form and keep moving!
Dress to Impress, but Wear Comfortable Heels: As mentioned, this is a stylish crowd! Rock that sexy, tight dress and look fabulous, but remember you’ll be on your feet networking. Opt for a chic block heel or a stylish, dressy flat so you can conquer the showroom floor in comfort.
Take Photos of Business Cards Next to Their Displays: You will collect a mountain of business cards. To remember who was who, take a photo on your phone of the business card sitting next to a piece of their work (a floral arrangement, a photo album, etc.) that you loved.
