How can I get discounted tickets to the Today’s Bride Wedding Show?
The easiest way to save on tickets is by signing up for free at TodaysBride.com. Couples who join our planning community receive 50% off wedding show tickets, along with access to local vendor recommendations, wedding planning resources, and our weekly planning guide called The Wedding Journey to help keep you on track from “Yes!” to “I Do.”
Signing up only takes a minute and helps you get the best price on tickets before the show.
What should I bring to the bridal show?
We suggest bringing a pen & paper to take notes, your phone to add contacts and take pictures, and a calendar to make appointments. You may decide to make a deposit, so bring along your checkbook or
credit card. Knowing your wedding date and having a color scheme in mind, along with a binder filled with inspiration, can be a huge help when communicating your vision to vendors. Comfortable shoes are a must. Printed address labels with your name, phone number, email, wedding date, and venue will save your hand from cramping from the constant writing. No need to bring a bag for all your pamphlets and goodies – we provide those at the door!
What do I get with my ticket?
With your ticket admission, every engaged attendee will receive a free issue of the brand new 2026 Today’s Bride Magazine and a hand pink LOVE tote (while supplies last).
Will there be show-only discounts?
Yes! Many vendors offer exclusive promotions, giveaways, and booking incentives available only to couples attending the show. It’s one of the best ways to save money while planning your wedding. Check out the Show Specials below to see some of the discounts you’ll find.
Can I book vendors while at the show?
Absolutely. Many couples schedule consultations or even book vendors directly at the show. If you’re ready to secure vendors, attending a wedding show can help you move multiple planning decisions forward in just one day.
Is this event only for brides?
Not at all! Today’s Bride Wedding Shows are for both partners, families, and anyone helping plan the wedding. We welcome everyone involved in the planning process.
Why attend a wedding show instead of searching online?
Online research is helpful, but wedding shows allow you to meet vendors face-to-face, see their work in person, ask questions, and compare options all in one place. Many couples say attending a wedding show helped them finalize multiple vendors in just a few hours.
Why attend the Today’s Bride Wedding Show?
Today’s Bride has been helping Northeast Ohio couples plan their weddings for over 35 years through our wedding magazine, website, and bridal shows. Our events bring together trusted local vendors, inspiration, and exclusive planning resources to make wedding planning easier and more enjoyable.
