The Bridal Preview

This is not a traditional wedding show or styled shoot—and we are intentionally NOT inviting multiple vendors per category.

We are curating ONE exceptional professional in each trade to represent the very best of the wedding industry. As a selected vendor, you won’t compete for attention—you’ll OWN the experience. We’re looking for committed vendors who are ready to participate. If selected, we kindly ask that you are prepared to accept your invitation and move forward with the event, SUBMITTING PAYMENT TO SECURE YOUR PLACE. 

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY IF YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS.

This immersive, mock-wedding event is designed so couples don’t just meet you; they experience what it’s like to work with you on a real wedding day. Your work will be woven seamlessly into a styled, lived-in celebration where guests can see, feel, taste, hear, and connect with your brand in a meaningful way.

The couples that will be invited to join us are intentionally limited, highly engaged, and actively booking. This is relationship-driven, not transactional. (We can not guarantee their attendance)

Being chosen as the vendor in your category positions you as a trusted expert, elevates your brand alongside other like-minded creatives, and places you directly in front of couples who value quality, experience, and intentional design on all of our socials, across the web and face to face.

The Experience will be broken up into three parts

Photographer Preview 

FOR 3 HOURS (with a 30min break)

A select group of photographers are invited to capture the space fully styled as a wedding before the event opens. They are then welcome to mingle with our guests once the doors are open or continue shooting the event!

Vendor Walk Through | Networking Hour
Wedding professionals tour the space, explore the design, connect with fellow creatives, and experience The fellow vendors. The best form of advertising is word of mouth. 

Couples Experience
Engaged couples step inside a beautifully styled mock wedding, meet vendors in a relaxed, low-pressure setting, and experience each creative partner firsthand.

Photographers will be expected to turn galleries around within 30 days to insure their content has the opportunity to make it into the next issue of Bloom and Bride. (which will be going to print shortly after the galleries are returned)
