Brides & B2Bs: Did you, did you consider, or would you consider hiring your officiant at a bridal expo?

If so, what drew you to him/her? If you would consider hiring your officiant at a bridal show, what would you look for in the officiant, and what would you expect to see at the booth?

I'm trying to build my wedding business. I want to expand, and am weighing my options. Most of these shows have a pretty steep vendor fee so I'm doing some preliminary research.

Thanks.

    on condition that the 2d hand shops close to me purely look to function robes that appear like they have been worn by using an obese wrestler in the time of a tournament interior the Eighties as element of a few gimmick? No, i would not. If by using some small twist of destiny I controlled to discover a dress that replaced into the two cutting-side, stylish, and did no longer appear like it have been by using hell and back, particular, i could evaluate it. And pondering the actuality that I even have controlled to discover classic dressmaker purses rather worth 1000's for $5 on the comparable shops that be in a position to hold prepare wrecks of bridal robes, i'm having a guess i could get a candy candy deal on a gown if one have been there. i will on no account understand how the comparable keep that includes poor poor clothing lands up with stylish purses that could have value a small fortune new.

    I am a bride2be and personally I have not and would not hire any vendor on the spot at a wedding show/bridal expert. I would take their info and research it but I tend to find more on the internet and go off how well their website is designed, how their personality matches mine and my fiances and honestly during these times, their price.

    Hi, Im a planner and many,many,many brides hire their vendors at bridal shows including officiants. If its also your lively hood invest in yourself and make the most of it. If you have a desk and religous artifacts on a shelf or table and kind of decorate it with a potted tree or plants and offer a giveaway to a lucky bride, plus have details, details details of services, pricing, and travel. Pictures of weddings you have done helps always.

    I never went to a bridal show. I found my officiant on the internet. I would build an internet site for yourself and figure out how to market using the internet. I wouldn't waste money on a bridal show.

    Wouldn't advise any bride to hire a vendor at a bridal show. The ceremony is too personal and so meaningful. I always recommend someone they know and who knows them and cares about them.

    Of course I would. Not coming from a religious background, finding a nondenominational officiant was quite difficult. If there was one at the bridal show i went to it would have been great. Instead it took me weeks to actually find an officiant and then of course making sure that officiant was the right one for us was also time consuming..

    What i looked for in an officiant was someone who wasn't pushy. Someone who was willing to listen to our ideas and not just pretend that what we said was important then push it to the side. We looked for someone who had a strong belief in the strength of marriage and didn't look at it as just a means to make money. We looked for someone who was flexible, someone with a variety of different ceremonies to choose from not just one way and that's it..This person had to be warm, and kind-hearted. Basically, we chose someone who we took the opportunity to make us feel comfortable. I mean this person is going to marry us, we didn't want someone who married people and had no attachment to what they say, no hypocrite.
