2014 Quaker Station Bridal Show
April showers bring bridal show flowers! (Or, something like that.)
No matter how the saying goes, one thing for sure: Last night’s bridal show was awesome! Rain & cold temps certainly didn’t keep brides away as they filtered into Quaker Station at the University of Akron for a fun-filled night of fabulousness. But don’t just take out word for it see for yourself!
First, let’s take a peek at the ever-so-gorgeous Reception Design & Lighting Lounge by Event Lighting Design Group:
Next, we head onto the main show floor where brides and attendees got to talk to 50+ local vendors; take in the latest bridal attire trends, and see what’s new in all things wedding.
Of course, we had lots of fun activities (funtivities?) for guests to participate in — including the DIY Cupcake Demos from Acme Little Cake Shop & the Hair & Make-Up Beauty Bar from Carol Martin salonSpa …
as well as the Pop-Up Bridal Salon from Lavender Bridal Salon and the Invitation Station from the ladies at Pink Tomato.
At 7:30, we welcomed the girls of the University of Akron’s Alpha Gamma Delta sorority to the stage to model beautiful bridesmaid gowns from David’s Bridal, Lavender Bridal Salon & Linde’s Bridal & Prom.
Following the Bridesmaid Fashion Show, Bachelorette Party Cleveland announced the winner of their Bachelorette Party Giveaway — a phenomenal package that includes FREE limo rental for 5 hours + VIP seating for the bride & nine of her closest friends to see the Men of Steel – All Male Revue + complimentary bottle of champagne during the show + bridal party T-shirts for everyone in the group and (as if that’s not enough!) a private pole dancing party! Let’s just say we had one very happy bride on our hands!
After our winner was announced (and given a sneak peek of her prize!), attendees were free to make their way to the dance floor and take in the rest of the show!
And with that, we’ve reached the end of our gallery! Thanks to all the brides & vendors who attended/participated in this and really helped to make it a special night for all! We may not make our way back to Quaker Station until next spring, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait a full year for more wedding goodness — we have five more bridal shows on the deck between now and then!
