    Bridal Spectacular Time!

    By bella | July 18, 2006

    If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know that in January I was a vendor for the very first time at a bridal show here in Las Vegas.  Well, imagine that… six months has gone by in a FLASH, and it’s time again for another show!  Mom arrived a couple of days ago, and we’ve been busy wrapping gum and getting everything together for the booth.  It’s been a THOUSAND times easier to pull it together, since we did a super job packing up everything from the last show.  We essentially had to print a stack of flyers, print the 1000 wrappers for gum we’re giving out, and then wrap that 1000 sticks.  Oh yes, and print stuff for the door prize basket, and a few new samples I wanted to include in the booth. 

    I found out YESTERDAY that the producers of the bridal show are marketing pretty heavily to the Hispanic population in LV, with emphasis on Quinceaneras.  We have a pretty large percentage of Hispanics here, something like 25 or 30% at least, so it should be interesting to see how many moms and daughters show up to see all the vendors.  They are going to have a fashion show at the end of the bridal fashion show, and there are 10 local girls who will be modeling the dresses.  I learned a lot about the tradition of Quinceaneras yesterday as I was contemplating wrapper designs. 

    In other news, I’ve been working behind the scenes with Amy Bleser on a few projects.  Our first collab project is a CD with full-size wedding wrapper designs, easily customizable and printable for folks who want to do all the work themselves.  We will be selling the CD at the Bridal show, and on the HeavenlyPromises.com website.  It will hopefully be listed on the site by Friday. 

    We also have several more projects and fun things in the works, so stay tuned over the next few weeks as we plan to unveil more collab projects! 

    Ok, off to finish Bridal show preparations!
