Since Cape Fear Weddingmade its debut in 2000, our planning book and website have become
Southeastern North Carolina's Number 1 resource for brides. Starting in 2006, our services have
included an annual wedding show.
The Cape Fear Wedding Show will take place from Noon to 4 p.m.
Sunday, October 28, 2012. It will be in
Wilmington Convention Center, on Nutt Street, On the Riverwalk.
Onsite parking will be in the center's adjoining parking deck on Nutt Street between Red Cross and
Hanover streets.
Admission will be $5. Tickets will be sold
at the show, as well as online. Advance ticket buyers have an opportunity
to pre-register and avoid the line at the door. Buying tickets online also
saves a bride-to-be 20% off her own ticket and those for all her guests, too.
The show will be a perfect opportunity for brides to meet the Cape Fear
region’s leading vendors. “Destination wedding” brides who live outside the area can make contact
with dozens of vendors in a single visit to Wilmington.
Approximately 120 vendors are expected to exhibit, with booths, vehicles
and other displays all under one roof. The show will feature such unique touches as a special
Bride & Groom lounge, bridal fashion and formal wear show, dance and music performances, and
many other extras. Watch for door prize drawings, express VIP admission line and a live bridal
fashion show emceed by radio personalities "Foz" and Matt Murphy from Z107.5 FM.
The show is produced by Cape Fear Wedding, a division of Cape Fear Images,
Inc. of Wilmington. Radio stations Z107.5 and Sunny FM 104.5 are sponsoring partners.
For couples planning a 2013 wedding, the show’s
Autumn date is an opportunity to make early connections with vendors, many of whom start booking
the most popular spring and early summer dates by the beginning of the year.

The new Convention Center Wilmington's new showpiece opened to the public for the first time with the Cape Fear
Wedding Show on Nov. 14, 2010. The Wilmington Convention Center accommodates for more exhibitors and guests than
any other space in Southeastern North Carolina. The Center's exhibit hall is the region's first venue specifically
designed for exhibitions and consumer shows like ours. We are proud that our bridal show drew rave reviews as we
introduced this new building to brides, grooms and the public.
