Now it's Durban for The Wedding Expo

The Wedding Expo is there to make sure it's your most memorable day featuring the most comprehensive and creative bridal exhibitors, all showcasing a wide variety of wares and services. You'll find everything from stationery, beautiful blooms and wedding gowns to jewellery, table décor and honeymoons. Also on hand will be South Africa's top wedding planners, photographers and caterers, each with a wealth of experience, expertise and advice on how to tailor your wedding to your individual needs.

New to this year's expo is the Make Me a Bride activation where lucky brides-to-be will be transformed into beautiful brides, resplendent with dazzling hair, make-up and a wonderful wedding gown. They'll be given tips and advice the whole way through the process, and may even get to show off their new looks on a fashion ramp for all to see. A select group of lucky visitors will also stand a chance to receive a VIP invitation to the all-new Wedding Inspirations stand where they will be given an exclusive opportunity to 'walk into the magazine'.

Talk to the editor

Julia Boltt, editor of Wedding Inspirations magazine reminds us that your wedding day is the biggest production you will put on and you will definitely need planning help. This is the day that celebrates the beginning of a new life and every bride-to-be wants everything to be perfect, from the invitations to the cake to the wedding gown and honeymoon. Don't miss the opportunity to chat with Boltt on their stand at each of the expos this year.

Additionally there will be daily fashion shows where visitors will get to sit in the front row and witness the latest global bride and groom trends. Here they'll get to experience everything from couture designers.

You can vote for your favourite table in the Table Décor competition or your favourite cake in the Cake Challenge and win. As a bride-to-be, you will be able to enter the Win Wedding prizes competition and have the opportunity to win fabulous prizes towards the big day.

Tickets: R85.
