Celebrating its 19th year of serving the ever-changing wedding industry, the Prescott Wedding Expo brings a fresh look, modern offerings, new styles, and the latest trends to its attendees. This year, the expo will take place Sunday, March 3 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Sam Hill Warehouse at 232 N. Granite St.

This year, the Expo—the largest and longest-running of its kind in Northern Arizona and formerly the Prescott Bridal Affaire Expo—has a new name and a new look and will provide more opportunities than ever for engaged couples looking for a one-stop wedding shop.

StarStruck Event Planning produces the expo. Alysia McCabe, StarStruck’s Director of Weddings and Special Events, said, “Wedding planning can be stressful! The Prescott Wedding Expo makes for a fun and easy way for couples to find the vendors they still need, as well as discover new types of vendors and see all the latest trends.”

With more than 60 industry professionals exhibiting at the Expo, highlights include a mimosa bar, raffle prizes every 30 minutes, and a grand prize worth thousands of dollars. The event offers free admission for all, and a special swag bag for engaged couples.

Tahna Falk, Owner and Creative Producer of StarStruck, said, “We love that the Prescott Wedding Expo is a great opportunity for existing businesses and new businesses to introduce themselves and connect with potential clients and other industry professionals.”

While Prescott remains a popular destination for locals and out-of-towners, Tahna, who took over the event in 2018, knew it was time to bring a similar format to the community of Sedona. “Sedona is such a beautiful and romantic destination. We wanted to provide another great resource for engaged couples to use as they plan their wedding there and surrounding areas.”

The Sedona Wedding Expo launched on Saturday, January 13 at Poco Diablo Resort and included unique regional offerings.

Tahna started in the industry as a solo wedding planner in 2014. Her team now consists of six women who help with 30-40 weddings a year and assist in producing several annual community events including November’s Festival of Trees Prescott.

“My amazing team and I are thrilled to be able to serve the community in so many ways that connect generations through events that will remain as special memories for many years to come,” she said.
