As a coordinator, there are so many things to love about The Not Wedding – and the vintage Southern charm of their latest Charleston event is no exception! Bridal fairs are a great way for couples to see their potential wedding professionals in action, but a live-action event takes it even further. Rather than a standard booth at a fair, couples get a chance to see wedding professionals in our natural habitat – namely, running around in a frenzy trying to make everything work out almost perfectly. The Not Wedding structures their event like a traditional wedding, with a ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception complete with dance party! It’s not only a great way for couples to view potential vendors in action, but to experience a wedding from the guests’ point of view.
