Starshine Events has hired Gabby Stephenson to head their newest endeavor: a bridal show that is coming to Blacksburg, VA in the fall. The Bridal Celebration Showcase will be held at the Inn at Virginia Tech on October 22, 2017 from 12-4pm and aims to help brides and grooms meet quality wedding vendors for their big day.
When approached by the Inn to do a wedding show, Starshine Events hired Gabby Stephenson to head the spectacle. A Blacksburg native, Gabby graduated Christopher Newport University with honors in 2015, with degrees in both theatrical performance and set design. She brings an artistic vision to the show as well as organizational and marketing experience. Her own knowledge of wedding shows, in combination with Starshines’ years of promotional expertise works together to create the ultimate, unlike-any-other wedding show, locally!
Bridal Celebration Showcase is set up similarly to your typical Bridal Show, with a twist: Vendors are set up at booths in a conference room to showcase their specialties while meeting brides and grooms in attendance. There will be many types of wedding vendors, such as: venues, transportation options, bridal shops, florists, wedding planners, caterers, and more. Throughout the event, guests can try drink and food samples, check out previous work by photographers, play games and look at decoration options. In addition to this, unlike other wedding shows they can also listen to local musicians, and even compete in a game of ‘cash cab’ if arriving early. Brides will receive a free Bridal Bag with special offers and prize giveaways when they arrive at the event. Both vendors and attendees must register in advance. Tickets will also be sold at the door for any additional guests that would like to experience the show. The event is still booking vendors and continues to offer promotions via email and social media. Brides and grooms are invited to attend, along with friends and family to meet individuals and get to know them personally, rather than spending hours on the internet researching.
Starshine Events started 30 years ago in the town of Blacksburg, VA and has expanded to a large event company that ranges from representing DJ’s, magicians, caricaturists and more, to bring big screens and fun events to colleges and parties.
