"By taking advantage of our experience, you can skip the research and uncertainty and concentrate on appreciating the significance of this day in your life.”
 
The show will be held at the Bay St. Louis Community Hall at 301 Blaize Avenue between 6:30 and 9:00 pm, and tickets are $25.

​Brides will receive a welcome bag of goodies when they arrive, along with two drink tickets (wine, beer or signature cocktail). In addition, the first 25 brides also will receive a “Bride” tote bag.

Of course there will be a bridal gown fashion gala, to showcase the best of this season’s chic, classic and contemporary designs. But the fun doesn’t stop there!
 
The event will be set up just like an actual wedding, complete with ceremony and reception. And, since the right wedding professional can take your wedding from mediocre to memorable, local providers will be on hand for a meet-and-greet.
