Spectacular Bridal Expo

Yesterday I and my MOH attended our very first bridal show at the Crowne Plaza in Warwick, R.I. We met with several potential vendors including Golden Gate Florist, Toria Dolce Bakery and Mike Picard Videography. I read rave reviews about them on the Knot board and thought it was a good opportunity to see their work in person. I was not disappointed. Golden Gate truly impressed me with their extensive floral portfolio. These people have a passion for flowers. As for Toria Dolce, I love their individual cake center piece idea and their tower of tasty cupcakes in lieu of the traditional tier cake. We indulged ourselves a little bit with a slice of chocolate ganache cake and visited Sweet Indulgence to try their dipped fruit at the chocolate fountain bar. It was delicious! I also love their personalized hand dipped gourmet fortune cookies as wedding favors. We saw the bridal fashion show hosted by a bridal house in Attleboro, MA. There were a few styles that caught my eye but nothing spectacular. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience, I did enjoy meeting a few vendors but I wished there was more to see or more to do there. Hopefully I will attend a few more of these events and bring the FI along too.
