Your Dream Day Wedding Planning Podcast with Kathy Piech-Lukas

Are you ready to turn your dream wedding into a reality? Kathy Piech-Lukas of Your Dream Day and Kristie Bulach, wedding show producer for A Bride's Mafia, spotlight an upcoming wedding show in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio, on Thursday, November 30 at the Fitton Center for Creative Arts in Hamilton, where you'll find wedding vendors and services, from picturesque venues and delectable food sampling to professional photographers and unique decor. We share our exclusive tips to help you get the most out of your wedding show experience and what to expect following the show. Be prepared to share your contact information at the show, and set up a separate email account for the information you'll definitely receive from all exhibitors following the event.
Fun activities planned for the after hours wedding show include engaging activities like photo booths and ice rinks, cake samples and food samples. We've also got you covered for special discounts from White Wisteria Bridal Boutique and a special giveaway from Susan's Getaways and Dream Vacations.
We remind you of the importance of dealing only with reputable, licensed and insured vendors. Hear our cautionary tale about a videography company handing out business cards without a booth, and couples who have booked wedding vendors through Facebook groups only to have them cancel last minute or not show up at all. We stress the need to research your vendors thoroughly and share insights on the latest wedding trends, like live painters, and how to get referrals of quality wedding vendors. So, let's join hands and make your dream wedding a seamless reality.
