A Travel Agent’s View from the Rainbow Wedding Expo
Sunday August 2nd , was the third annual Rainbow Wedding Expo held at the Marriott in downtown Providence. This is our third year as exhibitors at the event. We were interested to note how the crowds have changed over the years.
The first year we had a lot of "lookers:" people who came to the event just to see who was there and what services were available. The second year, the crowds were definitely less than the first year, but this crowd came with definite ideas of what they wanted for their wedding.
This year we saw crowds coming in with a purpose. They had wedding dates and were clearly looking for the right vendors. At our travel booth we spoke to many couples who clearly knew what they wanted, as well as couples who were open to suggestions.
