If you’re heading to a bridal show (especially for the first time), it can feel like a lot—booths everywhere, info overload, and a hundred smiling vendors asking “How can I help you?”
But don’t stress. Showing up with a few solid questions in your back pocket can make the experience way more productive—and way less overwhelming.
Here are 10 questions you definitely want to ask when chatting with wedding vendors at the Carolina Weddings Show:
Don’t assume anything. Make sure you know what’s bundled vs. what’s an add-on.
Some vendors book out a year+ in advance. It’s better to know early than scramble later.
This one’s obvious—but you’d be surprised how many people forget to ask in the moment!
Budgeting becomes easier when you know what’s due and when.
Don’t be afraid to ask. Many vendors can customize options to match your needs.
It’s a bonus if they know the layout, staff, lighting, or logistics of your location.
This is especially important for outdoor vendors, DJs, planners, and transportation.
A good vendor will happily point you to reviews, photos, or past clients.
Whether it’s photos, videos, flowers, or cake—timing matters.
You never know unless you ask—and some vendors offer serious show-only perks!
Planning a wedding doesn’t have to be overwhelming—and when you show up prepared, it becomes a whole lot more fun.
