SGC, how was the Naseeb show?

re: Upcoming Bridal Shows & Sales in Toronto- 2011

Would have loved to go to the Naseeb Wedding Show - any feedback anyone?

11

re: Upcoming Bridal Shows & Sales in Toronto- 2011

i couldn't make it out to Naseeb unfortunately, but my planner friend did and she said it was ok. it was mostly clothing boutiques, jewellery and a few makeup artists and event planners.
of the clothing, she said Mehnaz had the most decent stuff. i believe their website is www.mehnaz.ca?

12

re: Upcoming Bridal Shows & Sales in Toronto- 2011

I messaged Off the Rack by Mehnaz a couple of weeks ago regarding an outfit. She emailed me back promptly about the price and where she was located. I messaged her again about the size of the oufit and the measurements, but she never got back to me. Grrrrr....I hate that. If you have a way to contact you online, then please respond!!!!

re: Upcoming Bridal Shows & Sales in Toronto- 2011

the stuff on that website, SGC, is old. I remember on my brother's wedding, I saw them at Kismet Wedding Show..and that was 5 years ago.

re: Upcoming Bridal Shows & Sales in Toronto- 2011

I went to The Spring Wedding Show and met some great vendors. More urban and upscale than at the other wedding shows around town so if you have a larger budget, check out their supplier directory as most of the participating vendors are listed here- http://www.theweddingco.com/supplierdirectory/
