Cumbria’s Premier Wedding Show is back this September
Cumbria's Premier Wedding Show is back! After the huge success of its February show, with almost 700 visitors, the team have announced its next show will be taking place on 25th September, 2022, between 11am and 4pm.
"The wedding and event industry has suffered huge financial, emotional, and devastating loss over the previous two years and the show certainly brought in new business, opened the doors for many exhibitors and the feedback has been overwhelming," said organisers Carol Milnes and Carol Waggott, the two Carlisle business women behind the event. "We received so many wonderful comments and feedback and we are committed to continue supporting and helping a varied selection of businesses by engaging with visitors to gain exposure in a fun and vibrant atmosphere, and to support brides and grooms to find their dream suppliers. We have the drive and passion to raise the profile of the great wedding businesses we have in this beautiful county."
