The WaW Bridal Fair Online

Weddings at Work has always aimed to make wedding planning as easy as possible for brides and grooms. In effort to do just that, we have created the WaW Bridal Fair Online last January 2016, which allowed soon-to-wed to attend a bridal fair in the comfort of their own home. Yes, no need to get out of your pajamas just to gain access to discounts and promos from your favorite wedding suppliers!

When It All Started

When we were planning our wedding, we were one of the first few couples in the country to have a website. Now, every other couple has their own blog, Pinterest board, wedding sites. Things do change! I remember having to meet all our suppliers and paying them in person. There was no way around it – we had to meet with them.

But with the traffic situation now, just thinking of leaving the house might give you a headache (Just think of EDSA and Waze’s red roads!). Besides, now, brides can always communicate with their suppliers through social media, SMS, and what have you’s. Personal meetings are not a must like it used to be. Even down payments can be done online!

So, we thought “Why not take advantage of all this technology and bring the bridal fair online too”?. Thus, the WaW Bridal Fair Online was born!

And with the current Covid Situation, our Online Fair proved to be a trailblazing idea!

The WaW Bridal Fair Online

It all started with the First WaW Bridal Fair Online 2016 on January 7 – 9. It was such a huge success that we decided to organize another one, the Second WaW Bridal Fair Online on September 5 – 10 of the same year. The Third WaW Bridal Fair Online was on January 11-13, 2017. The 4th WaW Bridal Fair Online – June 21 – 23, 2017. The Fifth WaW Bridal Fair Online – Nov 29-Dec 1, 2017. The Sixth WaW Bridal Fair Online – Jan 17 – 19, 2018. The Seventh WaW Bridal Fair Online – April 18 -20, 2018. The Eighth WaW Bridal Fair Online – September 19 – 21, 2018. The Ninth WaW Bridal Fair Online – January 16-20, 2019. The Tenth WaW Bridal Fair Online – April 17-27, 2019. The Eleventh Bridal Fair Online – July 17, 21, 2019. The Twelfth Bridal Fair Online – October 16-20, 2019. The Thirteenth Bridal Fair Online – January 15-19, 2020. The Fourteenth Bridal Fair Online – April 15-30, 2020. The Fifteenth up to Nineteeth happened during the pandemic.

UPDATE
The 20th WaW Bridal Fair Online is not up online check out the suppliers now and book them on Feb 24-Mar 15, 2023.

This online fair is successful because brides and grooms love the fact that they don’t need to panic and impulse book just to get a great deal. They can take days to contemplate, discuss and check out reviews before they book a supplier. No more pressure booking then second guessing if there’s a buyer’s remorse. Plus, they don’t even have to live near the fair location. They can access the fair from anywhere in the world!

The suppliers love it too because there’s no need to set up, no need to leave their house, hire people to man their booth or even print flyers.

If you’re an engaged couple wishing to have access to the fair, there’s no need to preregister! Just stay tuned to our blog and Facebook page where we will announce fair updates.

During the fair proper, just go to the link and browse through all the suppliers. This fair is open to all soon-to-weds, whether residing here or abroad. Click the logos of the suppliers and a pop up window will appear, the contact info of the suppliers are there for you to chat with them and ask your queries just as you would when meeting suppliers. Their websites and social media accounts are also available for you to check their works. Two days before the fair starts we will then post what they’re offering as discounts and special promos for couples who will book through the fair. So keep coming back as we keep adding more suppliers in the list.

Happy wedding planning! See you at the WaW Bridal Fairs!
