Suffolk Wedding Show celebrates its 18th year this weekend
Ipswich couples planning their big day can find everything under one roof this Sunday at the Suffolk Wedding Show.
Why it matters: Wedding planning can be overwhelming. The Suffolk Wedding Show offers a one-stop shop for couples to meet vendors, get ideas, and potentially book services for their special day.
The big picture: The event, celebrating its 18th year, brings together over 50 local suppliers:
- The show runs from 10:30 to 15:00 on Sunday, 22 September at Venue 16
- Attendees can meet local florists, photographers, cake makers, and other wedding professionals.
- Live musicians will perform, giving couples the chance to scout potential wedding entertainment.
What to expect:
- Over 50 local wedding suppliers showcasing their services
- Live music performances
- A café and bar for refreshments
- Opportunities to book vendors on the spot
What they're saying: Founder Melissa Neisler Dickinson, who started the show after being disappointed by existing events when she was planning her own wedding in 2006, said: "I wanted to support local wedding suppliers and create an event where couples could find everything they need without travelling to major cities."
How to attend: Tickets are available at www.thesuffolkweddingshow.co.uk
The bottom line: Whether you're just engaged or finalising plans, this long-running local show offers a wealth of inspiration and resources for Ipswich couples.
