What Other Exhibitors Say About Twin Cities Bridal Show
"I have to say the Twin Cities Bridal Show was AMAZING! We loved the time slots for couples coming into the space and the one-way aisles. I felt like we were able to connect with 85 - 90% of every couple that walked by our booth and we got over 118 leads from our QR code contest! A massive thank you to you and your team for making such an amazing show that we felt 100% safe attending during this insane pandemic. "
"Becoming a sponsor and participant in The Wedding Guys’ bridal shows (Twin Cities Bridal Show and Unveiled) has been a game changer for us. It is by far the most successful way we meet local couples and raise awareness of our business."
“The Wedding Guys have been extremely useful in spreading the word about my service. The Twin Cities Bridal Show in February 2022 built my potential couple list (nearly 75 people signed up for my email list!). I also met many other vendors who have been so generous with their time and insights. The reps have been so insightful too.”
“When I began working with The Wedding Guys®, I was just coming back into the industry after a bit of a break. Working with their team has raised my brand level and increased my business demand. It’s allowed me to discover couples that are the right fit for my business. After working with them for 4 years, I can say that my success as a vendor can be directly attributed to their shows and marketing efforts.”
"We have had a fantastic year so far due to wedding shows; we always support them. Have heard from many brides/moms about how good they are. And being a vendor consistently for all shows to be seen over and over again. Love The Wedding Guys shows!"
