Going to a wedding fair can be the ideal opportunity to meet with venues and suppliers with no stress or obligation. The Word on Weddings has been arranging wedding fairs for the past 13 years and has a wealth of experience of marrying together couples with their ideal venue and wedding suppliers – professional experts who won’t let you down. Still to come in 2025 is one of the organisers biggest wedding fairs at UWE Bristol on 26th October with more than 80 suppliers exhibiting. “It’s a great opportunity to meet venues and suppliers in person and find out if they can match your vision, as well as finding things you don’t expect,” says Bridgette Humphries from The Word on Weddings. All fairs by the organiser are free to enter and are fun-filled, inspiring and exciting. “My top tip if you don’t like crowds is to come after 1.30pm when things tend to quieten down and might not be so overwhelming,” Bridgette shares.
