The terms for our show are pretty simple. The Fabulous Bridal Show will be held at The Millennium Centre in Johnson City, TN on Sunday - January 2nd - 2011 from 12 noon until 4pm EST. Vendor set up is from 7am until 11:30am on the show date. There will be no pre-set up date. No vendor will be allowed to begin set up after 10am on the show date. Final booth inspection is at 11:30am and doors will open at 12 noon.

Booths: Each space is 10 x10 in size. Those spaces down the center aisle will have pipe and drape as a background. Wall booths will not have pipe and drape. An 8ft long table with skirting and a top will be supplied as will two seats in each booth. Vendors are encouraged to be creative and decorate the remaining parts of the booth to impress brides.
Electricity is provided in each booth. Help for loading in and out will be provided by our staff. We'll be happy to help as little or as much as you desire.

Show Decor: This will be a highly decorated show to give brides the sense of doing something big and fun. Vendors are encouraged to come with a "blow them away" attitude and make each booth a spectacle. Bringing in furniture and big screen TVs is encouraged for your booth decor.

Sites and Sounds: There will be no disruptive 2 hour fashion show at the event. This show is about you connecting with brides. You can't do it by screaming at them. We will have an area where bridal gown and formal wear companies can show off their goods to get results. No bands will be allowed to play during the event. DJs may bring equipment such as speakers and may play music at a low level for ambient sound. No active rotating or flashing lights will be permitted. DJs may bring these for display but not use them during the event. Videographers playing demo clips will be placed as far a part as possible and sound from the clips must be kept as a reasonable level.

Booth Limits: While no original limit will be placed on categories this is subject to change. If at any time the promoter feels that one category is becoming vendor heavy we may cut off entry in that category. For instance if we see 15 photographers and only 1 or 2 vendors in other categories we will stop registration for photographers. An even balance with variety is the goal of the show. 

Marketing Multiple Items: Vendors may market any and all items or services they offer from within their own business. At no time will any vendor be permitted to market any services or offer products obtained from a local vendor who is not part of the show. For instance, if you offer cakes they must come from your business and not another business. No group or organizations will be permitted to market together using one booth.

Bride's Book: We will print a small 4x6 book for bride's to carry with them as they plan their wedding. Each vendor will have a page in the book with contact information and an area for notes. There is no charge for this. Vendors may also purchase an ad page in the book with a photo, logo or other material. These are available in color ($50 ) or black and white ($25) for an extra fee.

Show Promotion: Our area of expertise is branding and marketing. This show will be marketed using proven methods to reach brides today. Posters and Internet will comprise much of this. Due to trade secrets we will not divulge abundant information here. But, rest assured that every bride within a 100 mile radius of the show site will know about this event. And, we are going to make them have a desire to show up and book vendors.
