Couples plan their dream day at Wilmington Wedding Expo

WILMINGTON (WWAY) — Hundreds of future brides and grooms came out to see what Wilmington has to offer at the annual Wedding Expo on Saturday.

Dozens of vendors, from photographers and venues, to caters and cake-makers, showed off their wares. For many couples, it was a chance to see what was available to them without having to spend time searching online.

Dino Simotas and Olivia Parrish just got engaged two weeks ago, and although they’re just now starting to plan their wedding, they say the event gave them an idea of what their special day could look like.

“It’s a variety of vendors, it’s fantastic, you can see everything you need from shuttles, to the food to the drink, to flowers to photography, to stylists and such, it’s all in one stop. so its been great,” Simotas said.

And one lucky bride went home having said ‘yes to the dress’ — as one was given out as part of the event.
