Bridal event aims to make region a wedding hub

Wedding vendors will show off everything the Great Southern has to offer brides and grooms at Albany Entertainment Centre this weekend.

With more than 19 local models involved, the Bliss Bridal Exhibition will include three fashion shows that will unveil men's and women's wedding fashion and party attire, as well as Albany's first live pop-up wedding.

More than 40 wedding exhibitors will be involved, and director Brett Muller said he hopes this bridal exhibition will bring the spotlight to the region as a premium wedding destination.

"The Great Southern region is a beautiful and sought after wedding location and it is trending more," Mr Muller said.

"It's a destination wedding region now."

Complete with luxury show bags and a Perth film crew, the expo will focus on bringing local businesses in the industry together, Mr Muller said.

"This region is brimming with local premium services, products and talent," he said.

"I know that all of these businesses have the capacity to put themselves out there and help other people have a memorable wedding."

Doors open at 9am with local musicians playing every hour.
