We had a very busy weekend 23rd & 24th February at Chester Wedding Fair. The fair was held by Leanne of Flaunt Events at Chester Racecourse. It was very well organised. We had coffee 30 mins before it opened, a great way to chat to other suppliers and visit their stands.
It was very well attended, busy on both days. We were on the 1st floor, so had a lovely view right across the racecourse. The weather was fine which made it a lovely weekend. We met some lovely couples. It was nice to chat and find out what ideas and color schemes they had chosen.

Most of the couples were planning for 2014/15 but there were quite a few looking for last minute items for weddings this year. Purple is still the big color for 2014 along with navy, royal blue, red and quite a few couples are having orange. Had some enquiries since the fair. I am looking forward to working with them.
We met some lovely exhibitors. Some nice friendly people, we all exchanged web sites and promised to keep in touch. There was a catwalk show, hair and makeup demos, Laurel & Hardy lookalikes and even the band Soul Revolver playing, my daughter Poppy liked them very very much!
Plenty of competitions. It was a great weekend, we were absolutely shattered when it finished
