Valuable Feedback
At Wedding 101 we provide our vendors with feedback … surveying brides during the Research, Selection, and Post-Wedding phases. This process gives vendors records of portfolio viewings, feedback on consumer reaction to product and price, and post-event surveys. Our Feedback Loop ensures that you reach brides with the right message each and every time. Your success is our success!
At Designs in Paper, we have a proven marketing plan that is innovative, out-going, and personal. Wedding 101 is a perfect fit for that plan – giving us the opportunity to showcase our paper goods in a beautiful space and providing a fabulous environment for meeting people to create the personal experience we want.

Limited Vendors
We’ve taken great care to choose our vendors based on reputation, quality, style, uniqueness, experience, personality, and service. We limit the number of suppliers in each category of product and service, which allows our vendors maximum exposure and streamlines the decision-making process for our brides.
Bride Events
On the last Tuesday of Each month, Wedding 101 will host a “Tuesday Tasting”, an evening event where brides will get a “taste” of the latest trends and ideas in food, cake, beauty, attire, jewelry, photography, and more. Participation in these RSVP events provides our vendors with additional opportunities for exclusive access to area brides. These events will require pre-registration once announced so vendors can plan their presentations.
Creative, Powerful Exposure
The Wedding 101 studio is designed to educate and inspire brides. Vendor portfolios and displays are meant to be innovative and interactive and are limited only by your imagination. Our structure allows you to choose the level of display that best suits your line of business and your budget. Brochure, portfolio, shelf, wall, floor, and even “front window” display space is available.
