Exhibiting at the Puyallup Wedding Show is one of the most effective ways to connect with engaged couples who are actively planning and ready to book. It’s your chance to showcase your services in person, something no ad or website can fully replicate. Couples get to see, touch, taste, or experience what you offer, and most importantly, meet you face-to-face.

Beyond the immediate client connections, the show also offers long-term value through exposure on our website and in our lead list, plus opportunities to network with fellow wedding professionals and grow your referral base. It’s not just about the weekend, it’s about building momentum for your business.

We like to see that businesses are at least one year old (or have at least one year of experience in their category or the wedding industry) and have an active website. We will review your online presence, including social media and reviews, to get a well-rounded sense of your business.

Acceptance is based on category availability and overall fit for the show. Some categories fill quickly and may have a waiting list. While we can’t accept every applicant, we’re always excited to discover businesses that are a great match for our audience.

If you'd like to choose your exact booth location, that is an optional upgrade you may select during your registration. We're happy to take general booth location preferences into consideration and we will do our best to accommodate during the placement process but there are no guarantees.

Sponsors choose first, and then vendors who opt for the Choose Your Booth upgrade get to pick their space in the order they signed up. If you’d rather skip the fee, no problem, your booth will be thoughtfully assigned by show management to ensure a balanced, high-traffic layout. Keep in mind that the Choose Your Booth upgrade is only available to a maximum of 20 exhibitors.

To keep things fresh and engaging for attendees, vendors in the same category will be spaced at least 10 feet apart (not including aisle ways).

Space is limited, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. While registration officially closes two weeks before the show, we often sell out well in advance, especially in popular categories like venues, photography, and planners & coordinators. The earlier you sign up, the earlier you’ll get to choose your booth location, and the better your chances of securing a spot in your category. If you’re thinking about participating, don’t wait.

Nope! You'll be able to choose between a payment plan or paying in full during your registration. Payment plan options vary depending on how close to the show you register.

It depends. While our primary focus is on businesses directly related to weddings, we do accept vendors whose products or services are closely tied to the wedding experience such as offerings for bachelor or bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinners, honeymoons, wedding gift registries, or health & beauty services.

However, we typically do not accept businesses that offer general lifestyle or post-wedding services like roofing, windows, real estate, or financial advising. These may be relevant to newlyweds, but they fall outside the scope of what our attendees are looking for.

If your business isn’t wedding-specific, participation is considered on a case-by-case basis, and you're welcome to apply, but in many cases, the answer is no.

The attendee list is a key benefit reserved exclusively for participating exhibitors. It is not available for purchase and is never sold or shared with non-exhibitors.

Please be aware: If you receive an email or message offering to sell a list of our attendees, it is a scam. These types of fraudulent offers circulate within the event industry from time to time. The only legitimate attendee list comes directly from us—and it’s only provided to our official exhibitors after the show.

We promote the show through social media, Google ads, billboards, yard signs, Spotify, radio, and postcards placed at vendor storefronts. Facebook and Instagram are our most active platforms, but we use a mix of digital, print, and in-person marketing to reach engaged couples wherever they are.

We invest about 25% of our total booth sales directly back into advertising. It’s the kind of reach that’s tough for any one business to achieve alone but by pooling the resources of all our vendors, we’re able to create a marketing campaign that drives real results and gets couples through the doors.
