THE historic Fownes Hotel in Worcester was packed with happy couples on Sunday, as the latest I Will wedding show welcomed more than 100 brides and grooms-to-be plus their families and friends.

This Victorian venue in the heart of the city hosted more than 35 exhibitors showcasing wedding essentials from cars and cupcakes to gift lists and entertainment, while visitors also enjoyed wine tasting courtesy of Barefoot Wine.

Exhibitor Jean Conway, of JC Cakes of Stourport, was particularly pleased with the event’s success: “I had lots of positive comments and enquiries, some for weddings as far in advance as 2014 and some for as early as this summer! The show was well organised and I was very happy with the day.”

The next I Will show takes place on Sunday, March 25, at Worcester Rugby Club, home of Worcester Warriors. The impressive Sixways Stadium will host about 100 exhibitors, offering everything you could possibly need to plan the perfect wedding.

The show runs from 11am to 3.30pm, and with plenty of free parking available, you can spend as long as you like browsing the stands. Don’t forget to enter the free prize draw to win the dress of your dreams!

The I Will wedding shows – run by the firm behind your Worcester News – bring together an array of services under one roof.

This means couples and their families and friends can spend a relaxed and enjoyable day collecting ideas and contacts to help create the perfect wedding.
