Anyone who has ever planned a wedding knows how stressful organizing a large formal gathering can be.

The Total Elegance Wedding Show gave future brides and their families the opportunity to see what products and services are available to make your special day even more special while helping you get through it with the least amount of stress and difficulty.

The event was held at the Orangeville Agricultural Society event centre last Sunday, March 1.

This is the second year event organizer Teena Avery, owner of Elegant Professional Events, has hosted the show. Ms. Avery is an event planner and also does wedding décor.

“We’ve got everything here today from hair and makeup, teeth whitening, DJ’s, limo rental companies, wedding invitations, beauty specialists, officiants, jewellery, wedding dresses – everything that has to do with weddings,” Ms. Avery said. “We pretty much have everything in relations to weddings. We also have people here for health and fitness, gyms, lingerie, boudoir photographers, and bridal registry people.”

While many of the visitors were planning upcoming weddings, many more just came to see what was available in case a wedding could be in their future. 

“It’s been really busy,” Ms. Avery said. “We have all different types of vendors. The goal is to bring everything under one roof so people can find what they need. There’s a grand prize worth $2,750. All of our couples go around and meet every vendor and have them sign off on a little sheet and they get entered into a draw. We’ve had a lot of couples and the rest are brides with their bridal parties.”

Ms. Avery said many more grooms are becoming involved in the wedding planning process and want to learn how they can take advantage of wedding planning to lessen the stress on the big day. 

“Wedding planning has been building over the years. When I first started, some people asked what I do. I told them I could help people from start to finish or half way through or just a few months before the wedding.”

While planning a large formal affair can be time consuming, a properly planned wedding can alleviate a lot of the stress and decision making to make your actual wedding day more enjoyable.
