Award winning bridal shows & wedding planning resources.
The wedding day is likely the most anticipated event of a woman’s life. Today’s
bride is very sophisticated, savvy and cultured, yet needs guidance in her pursuit.
While many brides try passionately to fulfill
their lifelong vision of that perfect day, many are uncertain.
After all, a bride is about to spend more money than she has ever spent, on
things she has never purchased… who can she trust?
{Meet Forever Bridal Productions Ltd.} Since 1995, Forever Bridal Productions
Ltd. has been giving brides access to the top wedding vendors in the community.
Our approach is simple; connect the beautiful bride with the perfect company. Our
goal has been to inspire and motivate both the bride and the local business. We
have been successful in being a part of tens of thousands of marriages in North
Carolina.

{Meet OUR Bride} The bride’s true passion is to fulfill the experience of a lifetime.
However, the wedding brings about lifestyle changes that will impact the bride’s
buying decisions for years to come. She will establish new business relationships
and brand loyalties that will last a lifetime.
With the world at her fingertips, today’s bride is older and more educated than
those of previous generations. She is motivated, and with fast approaching
deadlines, her decisions cannot wait. She wants to buy now! And, she has financial
resources to make her wedding day all she ever dreamed of.

Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. Trade Show Terms & Conditions
For and in consideration of the show fees specified in the Exhibitor Agreement, Forever
Bridal Productions Ltd. grants exhibitor/advertiser a revocable license to occupy space in
the show(s) that are indicated on Exhibitor Agreement.
SHOW DEPOSIT: Bridal show booth reservations require a $300 minimum deposit to hold
said booth. Verbal and signed commitments are not recognized as sold booths until a
$300 minimum deposit has been made. Any and all deposits are non-refundable should
the exhibitor/advertiser wish to withdraw from bridal show participation.
SET-UP/BREAK DOWN: Exhibitors may enter show facility for the purpose of exhibit
setup as outlined in the exhibitor kit materials. Exhibitors must use authorized loading
areas and remove vehicles from loading area immediately after unloading. Set up of
exhibit must be completed no later than 1 hour prior to show start time (advertised
public show hours). Should Exhibitor fail to occupy its space during the scheduled setup
period, Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. shall have the right to take possession of said
space without liability for a refund of exhibitor fees. Exhibits may not be dismantled
before the show has closed. In the event Exhibitor violates this provision, Exhibitor shall:
(a) forfeit its rights to the list of show attendees, (b) be precluded from participation
in future shows, and (c) be subject to a fine of $300.00. Exhibits must be removed no
later than the 2 hours after show end time. Exhibitor shall be liable for all storage and
handling charges resulting from failure to remove exhibit material from the show before
conclusion of break down period. The use of porters, if available, to assist loading and
unloading is at exhibitor’s own risk, and Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. shall not be
liable for any resulting damage or claim.
EXHIBITOR NAME BADGES: Exhibitor personnel must wear an official exhibitor badge,
which will be provided on the day of the show.
COMPETITOR SHOW CLAUSE: Exclusion from these programs is determined solely by
what Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. deems as a “competing” or “rival” production of/
or sponsorship of another bridal trade show(s), sixty days prior to or after any Forever
Bridal Productions Ltd. Bridal Show, and/or within a fifty-mile radius from any Forever
Bridal Productions Ltd. Bridal Show exhibition site.
LIMITATIONS ON DISTRIBUTION OF PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS AND SHARING OF
BOOTHS: Exhibitors will be permitted to demonstrate products and/or services, solicit
orders, and distribute advertising materials (including, but not limited to, signs, literature,
or business cards) only from their assigned exhibit space and only for products and/or
services which are provided in the exhibitor’s normal operation of business. Distribution
or display of advertising materials from non-exhibitors, and distribution of advertising
materials in aisles, registration areas, lounges, seating areas, or grounds of show facility
is prohibited. Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. reserves the right, at its sole discretion,
to determine if a breach of this clause exists. Exhibitor may not assign its contract for
exhibit space or permit any other person or company to use any part of such space.
Exhibitor agrees to be held liable for any unauthorized use of its exhibit space and that
the damages to Show Management resulting from each unauthorized use will be set at
a dollar amount equal to the fee for the Exhibitor’s space in the Show. Exhibitors are
restricted from handing out publications, which have non-exhibitors in them without prior
permission.
PUBLICITY / USE OF PHOTOS OR VIDEO: Exhibitor agrees that Forever Bridal Productions
Ltd. may list the Exhibitor in show promotional materials and use photography and/or
video taken at the show for publicity purposes without compensation to Exhibitor.
EXHIBIT RESTRICTIONS / SAFETY ISSUES: All displays erected for the show must be
free standing and may not exceed the boundaries of exhibit space. Exhibitors are
prohibited from attaching anything to walls, columns, windows, or fixtures of show facility.
Exhibitor shall leave space occupied by them in the same condition as at the time when
first occupied. Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. reserves the right to restrict displays
which, because of noise or method of operation, interfere with other exhibitors, and to
prohibit or remove such displays and/or personnel which in the opinion of Forever Bridal
Productions Ltd. become objectionable and/or detract from the character or appearance
of the Show. The use of audio and/or video equipment is an exception to the rule, not a
right, and Show management reserves the right to determine at what point audio and/or
video constitutes interference with others and must be discontinued. Exhibitor is charged
with having knowledge of and compliance with all laws, ordinances, and regulations
pertaining to licensing, sales tax, health, fire prevention, public safety, copyright, and the
Americans With Disabilities Act. Exhibit materials, decorations, and display items must be
fire safe. If an exhibit does not comply with these regulations, or otherwise presents a
hazard or danger, Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. may remove the exhibit with no liability
for refund of exhibit fees.
EVENT DATES AND ATTENDANCE:
Exhibitor understands and agrees that Forever Bridal Productions Ltd. makes no
guarantees regarding weather conditions or attendance at the event. If Forever Bridal
Productions Ltd. is prevented from producing the event herein by reason of any act of
God, fire, flood, public disaster, act of terror or any other cause or reason either within or
beyond the control of Forever Bridal Productions Ltd., such condition shall be deemed
a valid excuse for delay or cancellation of the event. Forever Bridal Productions Ltd.
reserves the right that the event may be rescheduled for another date and/or location
chosen by Forever Bridal Productions Ltd.
LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION: Reasonable precautions will be taken by Forever
Bridal Productions Ltd. to protect persons and property during the show; neither Forever
Bridal Productions Ltd., show facility, nor representatives of any of the same, shall be
responsible for the personal safety of the Exhibitor or its representatives from injury,
nor for the safety of the property of the Exhibitor from theft or damage. Exhibitor
waives all claims of every kind against Forever Bridal Productions Ltd., show facility, and
representatives of the same including, without limitation, all claims for damages based
on personal property damage, destruction, loss or theft, personal injury or death, and
