THE wedding fair with a focus on supporting local businesses is back for another year.<\/p>\n
The Ivory Haus Wedding Fair, led by Laura Feldman, aims to provide Ballarat residents with an option to shop local for their wedding.<\/p>\n
Held on Sunday 24 March at the Goods Shed, the event will have over 40 wedding vendors and the first 50 couples through the door will receive a showbag.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe usually have vendors which are suitable for all different types of budgets,\u201d said Ms Feldman.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt feels like a celebration, it is not just a corporate event.\u201d<\/p>\n
The event has grown in popularity and Ms Feldman is now putting on the fair twice a year.<\/p>\n
Each fair is predicted to generate around $1.4 million for the local economy.<\/p>\n
\u201cLast year was the first time we did one at the start of the year and one at the end of the year,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was really well received and the couples love it.\u201d<\/p>\n
