We can hardly believe that another year has passed by, but we are SO excited for this year’s Wedtoberfest! This will be the fifth of its kind, and we’re convinced it’ll be the best one yet.

For those who are not familiar with this event, here’s the 411: Wedtoberfest is a unique wedding show + beer festival hybrid, founded by Carlene Smith (owner and boss lady of Naturally Yours Events) and produced in conjunction with Kelly Horvath of Indie Wed. This one-of-a-kind wedding show allows couples to plan their wedding in a cool, laid-back atmosphere while drinking delicious beer, cider, and bubbly.

This year’s event will be taking place at Artifact Events (AKA Architectural Artifacts) on Thursday, September 21st. Couples have the choice to purchase general admission or VIP tickets (individual tickets are available as well). VIP guests will be admitted early, enjoy additional beer samples, and will receive some pretty cool upgraded swag bags!

All guests will receive a swag bag and branded tasting glass. In attendance will be tons of local wedding vendors including photographers, florists, caterers, planners, bakeries, stationers, and plenty others. It’ll be the perfect opportunity to meet the vendors you’ve seen online but haven’t decided on yet. Oh, and did we mention there will be snacks and live music? We’re telling you, it’s gonna make planning your wedding fun!
