THE TO DRAG & TO HOLD WEDDING SHOW Not Your Average Wedding Fayre Interactive • Inclusive • Inspiring • Fun The Concept We’re creating a wedding show with a difference. The To Drag & To Hold Wedding Show is designed to be interactive, engaging and genuinely enjoyable for both couples and wedding suppliers. Forget the traditional wedding fayre format of rows of tables, couples walking past and suppliers waiting behind their stands to be noticed. Instead, we’re creating an experience that encourages couples to stop, get involved, ask questions, try things out and make genuine connections with the people who could help bring their wedding day to life. Our aim is simple: less browsing, more doing. Less awkward small talk, more meaningful connections. ✨ Interactive Exhibitor Stands Exhibitors will be encouraged to create stands and experiences that invite couples to participate, explore and connect. Whether that’s trying something, tasting something, creating something, seeing a live demonstration or simply having a proper conversation, every stand should give couples a reason to stop and engage. We want suppliers to be memorable, not just another business card in a goody bag. 🎓 Hourly Masterclasses Throughout the day, we’ll host a programme of fun, informative and interactive masterclasses covering a range of wedding-related topics. These sessions will give couples the opportunity to: Learn something useful Ask questions and get expert advice Discover new ideas and inspiration Meet and interact with wedding professionals Leave with practical tips they can actually use The focus is on making every session engaging, accessible and enjoyable, rather than simply another sales pitch. 🏳️‍🌈 A Wedding Show For EVERY Couple Weddings are as diverse as the couples getting married and our wedding show will reflect that. We’ll be actively promoting the event to all engaged couples, including the LGBTQ+ community, and creating a genuinely welcoming and inclusive environment. We want every couple who walks through the door to feel that they belong here, and to discover suppliers who are excited to celebrate their love story. 💍 Our Vision The To Drag & To Hold Wedding Show is about creating a wedding event that people actually enjoy being at. A place where couples can discover exciting suppliers, get inspired, learn something new, have a bit of fun and make connections without feeling pressured or overwhelmed. And for suppliers, it’s an opportunity to stand out, showcase what makes them different and build real relationships with potential clients. Come for the inspiration. Stay for the experience. Leave excited to plan your wedding.
