About US…<\/h3>\r\n

We are Bride St. Louis LLC and have been helping couples in our area for over 12 years.\u00a0 We are on the grow and while we are now bundled under the\u00a0 name of Midwest Wedding Expos LLC, to reflect our expansion into other regions within our Midwest area, each region maintains it’s own idenity.\u00a0 Brides St. Louis is so much MORE than just Wedding Shows, as our web site provides inspiration, education, and everything brides need to plan their perfect day.\u00a0 \u00a0Our shows are the premier Bridal & Wedding Show in our areas.\u00a0 It’s the first place brides go to plan their wedding.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

We are EVERYTHING WEDDINGS and we produce The St. Louis Wedding Shows & the St. Louis Wedding Expos, The Southern Illinois Wedding Shows, and the Central MO Wedding Shows that brides love!\u00a0 BrideStLouis.com is the largest, most comprehensive and complete wedding resource for the bridal community in the Midwest. We specialize in helping all brides and grooms plan their most amazing wedding ever!<\/p>\r\n

We started in 2012 with a very simple web site which provided detailed information on all wedding professionals, making BrideStlouis.com a quick and easy one-stop solution to connect with any vendor brides might need.\u00a0 It soon expanded by request to a wedding show that was different – more fun, more educational, and one that was more personal – some called it a boutique show.\u00a0 We wanted vendors and brides to have quality time to connect and talk amd get to know each other.\u00a0 Our shows are more personal and eliminated what is for some couples, an overwhelming experience when going to other similar type events.<\/p>\r\n

Our mission from the very start was to provide a show which offer couples a more personal experience, and one that offered education to help couples make the right decisions when planning a wedding.\u00a0 A corresponding second mission was to provide quality Wedding Professionals a more affordable means of connecting with brides and grooms.<\/p>\r\n

It’s now 12 years later – and 12,000 of you LOVE Bride St. Louis.\u00a0 We now offer 7 to 8 Wedding Expos during the year, have expanded to Southern Illinois and Columbia, Missouri.\u00a0 Our HUGE 2 DAY Wedding Expo in January offers 18 FREE SEMINARS.\u00a0 Every detail of wedding planning is covered, so that at the end of the two days, Brides & Grooms have an amazing experience, have fun, win prizes and have the confidence of going forth to plan their wedding.\u00a0 Once a year, we host the RUN for the DRESS – where brides can purchase a gown for a fraction of their retail cost.\u00a0 We have HUNDREDS of Blog Posts on EVERYTHING WEDDING.<\/p>\r\n

Our new web site, continues the focus on education but we have limited our VENDOR listings to only those vendors who are vetted and participate in our events and who are Preferred Wedding Partners.\u00a0 \u00a0And what that means for you, is that you can be assured of quality, professional, reliable service\u2026.as every wedding vendor is of a caliber that provides quality and dependability.\u00a0 That’s STRESS-FREE Wedding Planning.<\/p>\r\n
