Bride: The Wedding Show at Norfolk Showground returns on 18-19 February and is set to astound you with all the top trends for 2017 and beyond. Here's just a taster of what to expect....
Horizon Cakes, Stand number: C30
For 2017 there is a desire for brides to explore very different cakes, rather than go for the traditional, and also to consider off-peak season weddings, bringing in a beautiful range of autumnal wedding cakes. Individual touches are a must to ensure the cake is personalised to the couple and tied in with the theme and colours of the wedding day. Chocolate sponge is still the most popular choice.
Skylit Pyrotechnics, Stand number: C22
A firework display will never go out of fashion. Skylit Pyrotechnics has enjoyed delighting audiences with firework displays at both public and private events for several years. As a customer, your satisfaction with their display delivery and content is their utmost priority. Displays are individually designed with display choreography software and simulations are provided to you.
Lickety Ice, Stand number: B41
From strawberry cheesecake to your favourite cocktail on a stick, Lickety Ice provides a bespoke ice lolly cart or self-serve freezer which can be personalised to suit your special occasion. Lovingly handmade in Suffolk, the lollies are bursting with seasonal flavours and packed full of delicious natural ingredients - the perfect wedding treat.
Norwich Cosmetic Clinic, Stand number: A28
Longer lashes are all the rage and there are many options for achieving fabulous eyelashes, including falsies, extensions and mascaras. Norwich Cosmetic Clinic has also found a product which enhances your own lashes naturally. Used over six weeks, Revitalash significantly increases length and volume. Another option for on-trend luscious lashes.
The Wedding Party, Stand number: B98
Creat a series of talking points on your big day with The Wedding Party. One of The Wedding Party's biggest trends for the new year is the drop box guest book frame; your lovely guests write a message on one of the wooden hearts which slots into the special frame, making a unique alternative to the traditional guest book. Couples are also opting to make their wedding in to a work of art by using their favourite images and inserting them in to a mosaic canvas to create an instant masterpiece.
Toastmaster Bob Lloyd, Stand number: B92
A traditional Toastmaster will always be on-trend. Once booked, Professional Toastmaster, Bob Lloyd, will meet with you to discuss your wedding plans and advise you on timings and the order of events. On the wedding day, Toastmaster Bob will ensure everything runs smoothly enabling you and your guests to fully enjoy a stress-free day.
Little Pea Designs, Stand number: B82
The wedding stationery industry is enjoying a really popular time just now. There are so many options available, from letter press to individually hand-crafted stationery and everything in between - even the option to make your own DIY kits. Some of the top trends for stationery in 2017 include industrial meets luxe, bright Aztec patterns, metallics and sequins and floral patterns. Colours enjoying the spotlight this year will be hunter green and the ever-popular pinks.
