Attending a wedding show is one of the best ways to experience a venue before making such an important decision.
You will have the opportunity to explore the venue, view its beautiful wedding spaces and imagine how your own day could look. At selected shows, exclusive guided venue tours will also be available, giving you the chance to discover ceremony rooms, reception spaces, bedrooms, gardens and photography locations that may not normally be open to visitors.
You can also meet members of the venue’s wedding team, ask questions and discuss everything from availability and wedding packages to menus, accommodation and how your day could flow.
A Maples Wedding Show brings together a carefully selected range of talented local wedding professionals.
Many of the exhibitors will be recommended suppliers who already know the venue and understand how weddings are delivered there. You will also meet additional trusted businesses offering inspiration, expertise and services for every part of your celebration.
Depending on the show, suppliers may include:
- Wedding photographers and videographers
- Florists and venue stylists
- Bridalwear and menswear specialists
- Wedding cake designers
- DJs, musicians and entertainers
- Hair and makeup artists
- Celebrants and ceremony specialists
- Wedding transport providers
- Stationers and signage designers
- Jewellers and accessory suppliers
- Photobooths and event entertainment
- Honeymoon and travel specialists
Rather than spending hours searching online, you can speak directly to several suppliers in one visit, view their work and find the people you genuinely connect with.
Our exhibitors work with couples and wedding venues every week. They understand the planning process and can offer practical advice based on real experience.
You can ask questions, compare ideas and learn more about the things you may not yet have considered. From choosing the right photographer and planning your ceremony to creating a realistic timeline, our suppliers can help you feel more confident about every decision.
There is no pressure to have everything worked out before you attend. Our shows are designed to make wedding planning feel simpler, more enjoyable and far less stressful.
Many suppliers provide special offers, discounts or added extras exclusively for couples attending the show.
These may include reduced booking fees, complimentary upgrades, additional services or exclusive packages that are not normally available elsewhere.
By meeting suppliers face-to-face, you can discuss exactly what you need, check availability and take advantage of any show-only offers available on the day.
Offers will vary between suppliers and events, and there is never any obligation to book.
Wedding shows are a wonderful way to discover ideas you may not have found online.
You can see products in person, explore different styles and speak with creative professionals who can help bring your ideas to life. You may arrive with a clear plan or simply be looking for inspiration—either way, you are likely to leave with new ideas and a much better understanding of what you want.
It is also a great opportunity to bring your partner, family members, wedding party or anyone else helping with the planning.
Planning a wedding can involve dozens of separate appointments, messages and online searches. At a Maples Wedding Show, you can bring many of those conversations together in one convenient visit.
During the show, you could:
- Explore a potential wedding venue
- Meet the venue’s wedding team
- Discover recommended local suppliers
- Compare products, styles and packages
- Check supplier availability
- Discuss your wedding budget
- Arrange follow-up consultations
- Receive exclusive show offers
- Find inspiration for your entire day
Even if you do not book anything during the event, you will leave with valuable contacts, useful advice and a clearer idea of your next steps.
Our wedding shows are designed to feel friendly, relaxed and inspiring.
You can explore at your own pace, speak with the suppliers who interest you and ask as many questions as you need. Our exhibitors are there to help, not to pressure you into making an immediate decision.
Entry to our wedding shows is free for couples and their guests, although advance registration is recommended. Full details about parking, accessibility, opening times and venue tours can be found on each individual show page.
