National Wedding Show - NEC

Hiya,

I'm planning on going to the Wedding show at the NEC in a couple of weeks and wondered if any one has any discount codes for tickets when you purchase online? There is a promo code box which makes me think there may be some about.

Also, any tips for going here? I'm hoping to find a wedding dress and have a couple of designers I want to look at so will make a beeline for them early.

Are you able to take some food and drinks with you as i've heard its mega expensive to eat there?

Thanks :j

  • I was thinking of going along too, but I'm not sure if its worth the ticket price... Has anyone been before? Would you recommend it?
  • Thanks JoshP I've PM'd you :T

    I've heard it's a really good day and lots to see but as the day goes on it gets more and more manic so best to get there early.

    Hoping to find some good stuff there and ideas and you never know could even find "the dress".

    I'll be honest - I didn't like it. Was nice for ideas but all the suppliers were nowhere near me so couldn't really book anything.
