The Engagement Party at Mestads
We know wedding fairs are not for everyone. It can be overwhelming walking into a room full of vendors and not knowing where to start...and standing in long lines while trying to elbow your way through a convention hall.
We also know it can be very convenient to have a bunch of vendors all in one spot, so you are able to get a lot of planning done in a short amount of time.
We thought there has to be a way to bring vendors to one place and have a really laid-back atmosphere that is not overwhelming to walk into. So we started talking to fellow vendors in the St. Cloud area and came up with a new concept. We're calling it "The Engagement (After) Party."
Picture a place with a handful of Central Minnesota's top wedding professionals, looking to give you some tips and advice for planning your wedding. In a casual atmosphere, you'll sip on your favorite beverage while talking to wedding pros about your big day. No high pressure sales...no booths to visit...no long lines to stand in...and free parking.
And what if you were able to win $1,500 worth of jewelry from J.F. Kruse for just showing up? Sound good?
Here are the details:
