Our Feature Friday blog is where you’ll find out what’s happening in and around Orlando. We’ll focus on wedding-related events (but throw in some odds and ends, too, so we keep you guessing!). Know of an event coming up that we didn’t list here? Please comment and let us know!
We’re already heading into the second half of February, and there are so many Orlando events taking place in the coming weeks that it’s hard to narrow it down! Nevertheless, we managed to pick a few events that we think will give you great variety while helping you on your wedding planning journey:
2/19/12 – This Sunday from 11:00am to 3:00pm is the Winter Park Bridal Stroll off the ever-popular Park Avenue in downtown Winter Park. The Just Marry! Team is excited to be a part of this amazing event! While you’re there partaking of the event’s offerings, be sure to join Just Marry! wedding planners Jennifer Haskell and Diana Stylianou for an exclusive DIY demonstration from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Park Plaza Gardens (319 Park Avenue South). For more information, see our post with all the details!
*Just Marry! Tip: Parking can sometimes be tough to find in this part of town, so consider arriving early and having breakfast at one of the incredible restaurants in the area before the event begins. Here are a few listings from Urban Spoon.
2/17/12 – 2/19/12 – If you’re a bride shopping for a gown, be sure to check out the Monique Lhuillier Trunk Show at The Collection this weekend. You’ll find a variety of designs at this event that you might otherwise never see! To make an appointment with one of The Collection’s talented bridal stylists, call 407-740-6003 or visit their website.
*Just Marry! Tip: If you plan to try on some gowns during your visit, wear undergarments similar to those you would wear under the gown on your wedding day (such as a strapless bra) so that you can see the full effect while in front of those mirrors!
2/24/12 – 2/26/12 – For a fun event that combines the fairytale feeling invoked by weddings with family fitness, consider participating in the Disney’s Princess Half-Marathon Weekend. Taking place at Walt Disney World® here in Orlando, this princess-inspired event is intended to celebrate women who prove that anything is possible. The event is nearly booked full, so it you’re interested, you’ll want to register fast!
*Just Marry! Tip: Many brides engage in a fitness regimen leading up to their weddings. Consider participating in events like this that combine fun with fitness to help you reach your goals!
These are just a few highlights of Orlando events happening in the coming days. Please tune in next week for a new Feature Friday with other exciting and fun happenings in “The City Beautiful.”
