The Lekki Wedding Fair is an outdoor wedding exhibition birthed to create an avenue for business owners in the wedding/events industry to exhibit their goods and services to an array of intending couples and their families as well as network with other stakeholders in the industry. The Lekki Wedding Fair provides a no holds barred interactive opportunity for event vendors to meet prospective clients one on one. It is a fantastic opportunity to get brand visibility, make valuable contacts as well as sell goods and services. It is scheduled to hold on June 12, 2011 at the Leaf Gardens, strategically located on a corner piece Wole Olateju Crescent and Admiralty road in Lekki Phase 1.
In addition, the organizers are not choosing a multitude of vendors at the expense of the quality of the ones selected to exhibit their products.
The organising committee is made up of 3 enterprising young women in their mid 20’s Simisola Ojumu, Oyinkansola Ogundipe and Omotoke Oyegoke.
”We noticed a gab in the ‘market’ for real fairs where people meet a diverse selection of wedding vendors, not just the usual names we hear of. Also, we have many friends and colleagues planning their big days who are in need of direction to their dream service provider, The Lekki Wedding Fair promises to link them up with an array of vendors to suit every need and budget.”
The members of the organizing committee have attended and participated in many fairs and exhibitions.
“Our experience comes chiefly from the experiences we’ve had at other fairs.”
Also, as business owners, the organizing committee know just the right ingredients to put together to make our customers happy.
