It’s January the first and we’re with you every step of the way; let’s get planning! And thanks to Bridefayre wedding fayres, organising just got a whole lot easier…
Congratulations! You’re engaged! 2018 is going to be big! As the last mince pie gets consumed (your eighth today) and you vow never to drink another drop of mulled wine ever again, we’re with you every step of the way as thoughts turn to the biggest day the year to come… let the wedding planning commence! But oh, where to begin?! It’s a crazy minefield out there ladies and just to warn you now: the planning can get intense. Fortunately, there are some lovely kind souls out there who make it their business to make the business of wedding planning run super smooth. And the good people at Bridefayre – and owner Merv in particular – are perfect examples of just such wonderful people, bringing you wedding fayres with everything you’ll ever need, all under one roof…
Organising fantastically inspirational wedding fayres across the Great East Midlands area – in some breathtaking venues and with all of your big-day suppliers in one place – is Merv’s speciality. With four fayres already organised for January, you’re in safe hands to ensure everything is booked and organised ahead of your big day. With professional greeters to guide you through each fayre, the wedding suppliers who attend genuinely love weddings and will work with you to create a bespoke and memorable wedding. Most venues include a chillout area with refreshments, with lots of free parking and a venue host with a passion for delivering that one perfect day.

The whole experience is designed to capture and enhance some of that big-day buzz you’re carrying with you wherever you go, and to ensure you have peace of mind and confidence in your suppliers. Merv says: “Our suppliers are local people, often sole traders and they are our friends. We don’t allow fake raffles and draws or pressure selling, and we filter out unreliable suppliers pretty quickly too.”
