Rockville's 10th Annual Bridal Expo Features More Than 30 Vendors
 
ROCKVILLE, Md., Jan. 15, 2009 - The 10th annual Glenview Mansion Bridal Expo on Sunday, Jan. 25, offers anyone planning a wedding or other special occasion a chance to browse and sample the many services that go into making it a memorable event - all located in Rockville's picturesque 19th-century mansion.

The expo will be held noon-4 p.m. Jan. 25 at Glenview Mansion at Rockville Civic Center Park, 603 Edmonston Drive.
 
The expo will feature more than two dozen vendors who will highlight their services, including caterers, florists, cake makers and designers, musicians and DJs, photographers and videographers, personal care attendants, rental accessory companies, invitations and travel agents.
 
"The nice thing about our expo is that it's small and you actually have a chance to have a meaningful conversation with a caterer or florist that you can't do at the big shows," said Susan Klise, coordinator of the Bridal Expo.
 
Take the opportunity to taste cakes, sample catered offerings and learn about all the services that will help make the big day special. Again this year, the Rockville-based mother-daughter business, Bridal Images, will present an informal bridal gown fashion show.
 
In addition to all the vendors on hand, brides and grooms can get a peek at Glenview Mansion, which hosts a variety of special events every year, and its beautiful grounds. Staff of the mansion will be available to answer questions about hosting an event.
 
"The one-on-one of our show, whether you're booking with us as a bride or looking at booking with us for a Bar or Bat Mitzvah or Sweet 16, these are all services you would need," Klise said.
 
Tickets for the event are $5 and can be purchased at the door. For more information about the expo, call 240-314-8660 or visit www.rockvillemd.gov/glenview/bridalexpo/index.html.
