BRIDES and bridegrooms-to-be will be flocking to Worcester on Sunday for the fifth Worcester News wedding fair.

The Ultimate Collection at the Fownes Hotel, City Walls Road, is expected to be the biggest and best event yet.

Nearly 40 exhibitors have booked their stands and will be wowing visitors with everything that is needed to make that special day go without a hitch.

There will be car hire companies showing how to arrive in style, clothes companies explaining how to be the most stylish mother-of-the-bride, florists displaying the funkiest flower arrangements and photographers who can provide the perfect pictures.

And of course, bridal wear specialists will have the latest collection of gorgeous gowns.

Sara Matthews, wedding fair organiser for the Worcester News, said she had been inundated with calls asking for information about Sunday's special event.

"There is every indication that this is going to be the best event yet - it's going to be fabulous," she added.

"And as well as looking round all of the stands for inspiration, visitors will also be able to see the fantastic facilities that the Fownes Hotel has to offer for that special day.

"So if you are getting married or know someone who is, the Fownes hotel is the only place to be."

The event takes place between 10.30am and 3.30pm and entrance is free.
