The 2015 Bournemouth Pavilion Wedding Show is back in September to show off the best of the region’s services for couples looking to tie the knot at home or abroad, and for inspiring ideas to add warmth and sparkle to a winter ceremony.
The weekend event marks the 21st year of this successful show, which runs from 10am-5pm Saturday 19 September 2015 and 11am-4pm Sunday 20 September 2015. Around 100 local and regional industry specialists will present their vast array of services – bridal and mens wear, venues, cars, photography, photo booths, sweet carts, stationery, accessories, wedding breakfasts, and all the little extras to add the perfect finishing touch. Plus the highlight of entertaining, upbeat daily catwalk shows presenting the best of contemporary wedding outfits.
“The Bournemouth Pavilion provides a stylish Art Deco setting and the event is as popular as ever,”
says Pat Coyne, BH Live Director of Venues.
“Since we began our wedding fairs, we estimate that over 40,000 people have come along to plan and get ideas for one of the most exciting and special days of their lives. Once again, we’ve attracted a fabulous selection of wedding and civil partnership services from businesses throughout Dorset and Hampshire, so couples can explore and plan everything they need, all under one roof.”
Stands occupy the whole of the Pavilion Ballroom and the Lucullus Room on the mezzanine between the theatre stalls and circle. Wedding cars are on display outside in the lower car park behind the building. A complimentary full show guide is provided at reception.
An all-day ticket costs just £3.50, with a special rate of £10 for four adults. Tickets are on sale now online at bhlivetickets.co.uk, by phone on 0844 576 3000 or at the Bournemouth Pavilion and Bournemouth International Centre box offices. Visitors can also just turn up and pay on the day.
Diary date for 2016: Couples making their plans later, in 2016, can view even more exhibits at the BIC Wedding Show, running from Friday 5 February 2016 to Sunday 7 February 2016 at Bournemouth International Centre.
