Wedding Expo Information and sign up form

Wedding Expo Information

 

 

Thank you for your interest in the All About You Wedding Expo.  We are still in the planning phase for this event and trying to make it the best it can be.  Below you will read about what we are planning and what is expected from you the vendor.  At this time there will not be any funds collected until we decide if we have enough vendors to fill the event.  There is a sign up form that will be added to our website at:

eventswithkimk.com that each vendor will need to fill out as a general information sheet for our records and a contact form for you so we will be able to collect funds when needed.  Please only fill out this form if you are absolutely sure you will be attending.  Once we reach the point of payments, we will notify everyone that it is time and a invoice will be sent out to each vendor that will need to be paid within 24 hrs of receiving it.  So please if you are reading this go ahead and add eventswithkimk@gmail.com to your contacts list so to insure you receive our emails. 

 

General Information : 

 

Location is still being decided but it will be indoors.

Dates: July 12-13 2025

Times: July 12- 10am-4pm July 13 11am-3pm

With Friday 11th being set up day.  There will be no setting up the morning of. 

Any catering vendors that will be bringing samples will need to bring them the day of but must already have their booths set up.  Same goes for those Cake decorating booths.  

 

Fees: 10x10- $300 10x20-$500 electricity: $25 per booth if needed

These fees will cover booth days. You will be invoiced for your booth choice.

 

We will work towards having each booth set with pipe and drapes.  Please do not hang or attach anything to these. If we do not have these in place then you will be responsible for your own backdrops. Please do not bring canopies to use as your displays. All tables must have professional looking table cloths. NO plastic or vinyl. These must go all the way to the floor.  Please Do not have empty boxes or totes sitting around. Either take them back to your vehicle or make sure they are tucked away under your tables. Remember keep it professional and clean.

 

Until further notice all vendors will need to bring your own tables and chairs for your booths.  

Booths will need to be eye catching but not cluttered. Keep it simple but informative. Have examples of your services and products on hand so the customers will be able to see what you have to offer. 

 

Swag Bags:

 

We would like for each vendor to send us a item to put in swag bags.  We will only give out 100 bags to the first 100 brides that come in the door. This is not mandatory but it helps bring in customers when they I know they will get a prize. We will provide the bags so no worries there.  Your item can be a business card, brochure, sample of your items whatever you can donate that is yours.  We will provide a mailing address or a time and date for drop offs. Be creative with this, the more thought that goes into it will ensure your customer will come find you. Don’t forget that gift certificates have always been a hit with customers. Also some sort of small gift like candy with your logo on it, a keychain something that has your booth name on it.  People love free stuff!

 

Please understand that this is a Expo and there are no sales involved.  You are attending to get your name and business out there for the people.  Thee will be no MLM companies allowed or Crafts. This is mainly for businesses associated with Weddings and anything that revolves around that.
