Love Actually Weddings – ‘The Wedding Fayre Company’
Always Showcasing The Best & Professional Wedding Suppliers!
(243 Events Organised)
Love Actually Weddings are the Most Established, Most Experienced and Most Importantly, the Most Trusted Wedding Fayre Events Company in the South West. If asked, we can demonstrate that our Wedding Fayres are marketed and promoted to a much higher level, when compared to other events you may consider. With a very high retention rate of exhibitors who continue to exhibit with us, we host Professional Wedding Fairs for Professional Wedding Suppliers!
Most significantly, we are honest. You will not hear post Wedding Fair quotes, such as ‘we registered in the region of’, or ‘the event attracted a total of’. We register ‘the brides only’ which is the most important statistic for your business. We also cross reference our footfall against regional and national marital statistics to identify trends in the market.
We hold detailed records of every Wedding Fayre hosted by ourselves and we share that information with you. Ultimately as a Wedding Supplier, you are only interested in the number of Brides that attend. If you are improperly advised regarding footfall numbers, in the area you are targeting, please be reassured, that we work with some of the most popular Wedding Venues in the region, which provides a true picture of the market.
Love Actually Weddings (Est.2006) have organised 243 Wedding Fayres since 2008, focusing on hosting the best Wedding Fairs across the South West. Our Events are held in Bristol, Bath, Bournemouth, Cheltenham, Cirencester, Gloucester, Taunton, Swindon, Somerset, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Dorset. All our Wedding Fayres are marketed and promoted using local wedding magazines, local press, banners, posters and internet coverage. We have received hundred’s of testimonials from our suppliers.
Testimonials – over the years, we have kept a record of Exhibitor Feedback and have plenty of testimonials for you to see. These can be found by clicking our ‘Testimonials’ link, so take a look and see what our suppliers have to say! For very quick reading, a small sample of our Exhibitor Testimonials can be found at the bottom of this page. We hope these comments provide a good summary of how committed we are as Event Organisers. There are plenty to read as mentioned!.
The majority of our exhibitors are Wedding Suppliers that have been exhibiting with us since we started which is a testimonial in itself. Our Retention Rate is something we are very proud of!

Part 2 - Information
Our Wedding Fayres offer engaged couples the perfect opportunity to view some of the best wedding venues in the South West and the chance to meet a sensible number of exhibitors, usually between 25 to 50 companies.
Engaged couples do not want to be bombarded with hundreds of exhibitors, so we provide them with enough choice which means your company has a better chance of securing business at our wedding fayres.
We also have a large database of engaged couples who are contacted about each fayre. Previous events have attracted large numbers and many exhibitors secure business from attending our shows. You can view a full history of the footfall recorded at each venue which identifies industry trends and popularity by clicking our 'Previous Fayres' link. Please also see our 'Promotion Video Feature' and our 'Why Exhibit' testimonials below.

TITHE BARN DUNSTER
Hi David & Emma. I just wanted to thank you both for all the hard work you put in again this year to help make the Barn's latest fayre really excellent! I felt it was nice and buzzy all day and I got 3 wedding bookings confirmed on the day! I know other suppliers did very well as well, firming up bookings and also making new ones. Many thanks again - the banners in particular were brilliant and I see from your stats that they did the 'biz' and got people's attention! Best wishes. Sally, Tithe Barn Events Manager.

FUN POD
Hi David and Emma, Ian and I would just like to say a massive 'Thank You' to you both for Sunday. Ian is a long-standing hater of wedding fayres going back to the days when we used to attend them with our photography business and on Sunday he started off as a very reluctant companion indeed, Even he remarked though how very well organised the whole day was, how good the footfall (and quality of customer!) and how impressed he was with the fact that you actually took the time to see how the exhibitors were and made sure you spoke to every one of us. We really enjoyed Sunday (especially when customers were making our credit card app go kerching!) and we are really looking forward to coming back in March if you'll have us again.Jan & Ian - 'Team Funpod'

Hi Emma & David, Huge thank you for today and for all your hard work and effort you put into the fayre. It was amazing for me and I have had 2 enquiries already - yiphee! Thank you so much - as usual your fayre was fantastic. Even though the weather was terrible all your advertising paid off and people came out...the footfall was fab! You really are head and shoulders above all companies that run wedding fayres and are true professionals. Thank you so much and hope to see you very soon. Many Thanks, Emma

DEBBIE HUDSON PHOTOGRAPHY
Hi guys, Hope you're well. Just wanted to leave some feedbackfor the show at Bailbrook House. I thought it went really well, the layout meant we got to spend quality time with each bride that was interested in our services and this has been reflected in the bookings. 6 secured so far with more possibles. I did another show with a different company on Sunday & both Grant and myself commented that it just didn't compare to a loveactually show. It felt too clinical both for the brides and the exhibitors and lacked atmosphere. Would love to exhibit again at Bailbrook House if you do another show there. In the meantime, see you at the Cabot Circus Bristol, Future Inn Wedding Fayre at the end of the month. Kind Regards Debbie

Hi Emma and David, I had a really good day at the Thornbury Castle Fayre and took 3 bookings, plus some more to ring back so please put me down for the next fayre in Feb. Emma and David are fantastic people to work with, I even get a call to remind me of the fayre booking with times to arrive etc...I always feel looked after and they are always happy to accomodate me in any strange ways a harpist may have, like carrying the harp up the stairs!

Thanks again to Emma & Dave for organising a fantastic Wedding Fayre at Homewood Park. We had lots of interest from some quality brides/grooms and the phone has already started ringing with bookings!!! Every fayre we have attended with Love Actually has drawn in some excellent couples and we will certainly be re-booking all their wedding fayres in future!!! I love their attention to detail and every fayre is executed with pure professionalism, well done Emma & Dave. Highly recommended!!!
