Blushing Bridex glows at EXSA Awards
Bridex South Africa, re-launched at Gallagher Estate in May 2003, was confirmed as our country's premier bridal exhibition with its selection as overall winner in its consumer category as the annual EXSA awards for 2003.
Bridex 2004 takes place at Gallagher Estate on 29 and 30 May in 2004, with Bridex Cape being launched at Cape Town International Conference Centre on 18 and 19 September this year.
The significant growth of Bridex since its launch in 2003 is reflected in the significant increase in marketing and advertising exposure for 2004, the ongoing sustainable contribution to development of young designers in South Africa through the Bridex Young Designer Award, and the adoption of a charity as beneficiary of proceeds from the Gala Evening.
The Bridex Young Designer Award for 2004 will be presented at a Gala Function which will be hosted by Gallagher Estate on Saturday, 29 May 2004. Tickets for this prestigious event are available from NichePro, and 100% of the profits generated will be donated to CHOC - the Childhood Cancer Foundation South Africa.
CHOC is a country wide voluntary organisation which brings together the parents of children who suffer from all varieties of cancer or life threatening blood disorders. First established in 1979, the goal of this dedicated group is to improve the welfare and quality of care for children with cancer.
Bridex is proud to be aligned to several media and industry leaders including Media 24 (Fairlady Bride, Sarie Bruid and True Love Bride), Metro FM, Femme Bride and Estee lauder - all of whom are making substantial contributions to ensure the splendid delivery of an International Multicultural Bridal Fantasy in 2004.
"Their continued endorsement and increased contribution matches the growth and expansion of the exhibition itself, encapsulating our broadening target market - and speaks volumes for the level and anticipated future growth of Bridex," says Dee Reuvers, managing director of NicheCrew - the co-owners and organisers Bridex SA in Gauteng and Bridex Cape.
An integrated marketing strategy for both the Gauteng and Cape exhibitions supports the delivery of the broadest variety of bridal wares, interactive workshops and demonstrations and a fashion extravaganza produced with expert precision by fashionista Eleanor Ford.
Truly the first step to the perfect partnership, NichCrew and Gallagher Estate are proud to present the Multicultural International Bridal Fantasy that is Bridex 2004.
