RDS Wedding fair

Seb_bixby

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knows if I should book my tickets online for the RDS wedding fair this september? We are going on the Sunday.
Thanks!!:D:D

Not necessary. But if they are cheaper (I don't know if that's the case) or it saves you a few minutes queuing then why not.

Have fun!

I went to book four tickets online yesterday and it came to c.€55 - that's a €7 booking fee premium - so I think I'd be going with a purchase at the door strategy.

If you can get a copy of I think the wedding journal you'll get a free ticket in it

I'd say that's for the Wedding Journal Show at City West tbh

So it is, my mistake

Though TBH, I found the Wedding Journal Show better than the RDS.

Are there suppliers at stalls at that one too? Or just a fashion show?

Went today and have to say I found it completely....meh! Maybe I was hoping for too much, but I thought there would be vendors that supply favors, veils/head pieces, accessories etc. Really not worth the 24euro entry fee. Also got there at 1.30pm and all the pink goodie bags where gone :rolleyes: Bit late now for us but wouldn't recommend it to future brides and grooms.

I was all set to go, but something came up literally at the last minute and we couldn't make it.. gladly in the end it seems.:)

I had a stand at the mezzanine level. Handmade decorated biscuits. I heard from a few visitors that there was no stands with favors. Hat lady was upstairs as well

I saw your biscuits and thought they looked really lovely. I also saw the hat stand you mentioned. Their display didn't seem to have much bridal wear and when I inquired to the very disinterest person manning the display she was kind enough to lift her eyes momentary from her phone to huff a "no" to me :pac:

That's not great ...about the hat lady. I hope that I didn't seen 'not interested' :-). I am glad that you liked my biscuits.

the favours were on the first floor.. well some. I guess the stall at RDS is expensive and you will not spend a lot of money on favours... Anyway few of the most expensive suppliers were there
p.s. I really enjoyed the fashion show!
