So much to do for brides and grooms at Historic Manassas Bridal Show

The Historic Manassas Bridal Show is back again for a second year on Sunday, April 24.

This year changing dates to warm springtime, local brides are invited to transport themselves to a prime wedding destination in City limits – the Manassas Museum Lawn. Great for large or small weddings, the lawn provides a great location in the heart of historic downtown Manassas.

The museum lawn will house wedding vendors from 11 a.m. through 3 p.m. with free admittance. Brides will be mesmerized with live entertainment from JJ&T Entertainment as well as fashion shows hosted by Amy’s Bridal Boutique – whose store is just one block from the lawn for those brides looking to come back and score the perfect dress.

“Manassas has become a great location for wedding venues, with 3 right in the heart of historic downtown,” said HMI Executive Director Debbie Haight. “Not only is the Museum Lawn a great location, we also have the Harris Pavilion and the Center for the Arts at the Candy Factory as great wedding venues.”

This event puts a large focus on the local businesses in Manassas that will help guide you in making your wedding your dream day. Vendors come from Manassas or the immediate surrounding cities to keep it local. Jewelry shops, spas, and photographers are just a fraction of the vendor selections available at the bridal show.

There is even something for the groom in your life – BadWolf Brewing Co. will be there to show what a great space they offer for a fun bachelor party and Old Towne Man Cave will take care of all the pampering your groom needs before the wedding.
