Come see us July 31st to August 1st at Dallas Market Hall (2200 Stemmons Fwy, Dallas, TX) from 10am – 5pm each day.  For more info, check out www.bridalshowsinc.com.

If you check out the Dallas Kids Expo 2010, you’ll be amazed at all of the fun activities they have planned for moms, dads and kids of all ages.  We’re talkin’ tea parties, ‘green’ baby changing stations, talks on how to save money with coupons and so much more.

But I’ll let you in early on a surprise that Gattitown North Dallas has put together…  *are you ready?*  …PicFlips Custom Flipbooks has been sponsored by Gattitown North Dallas to give out a FREE personalized flip book of your cutie-patootie!  Get the whole family in a flip book to send to Grandma and Grandpa, or have your child hold up the I Love You sign and stash it away until May 9th…viola!  A personalized Mother’s Day card!  Every time she flips through that book, she’ll see her child’s photos on the pages and melt with love.  Did I mention it was FREE??

Make your way to Booth 316 and318…this is a hot offer, so don’t miss it!  It only takes a minute-and-a-half to create the flipbook from start to finish, so while you are in the display, check out all of the FUN activities for the whole family at Gattitown North Dallas.  They have games and prizes and a pizza and salad buffet!  YUM!  It’s a  great place for the kids to burn some energy off and for parents to relax or join in the fun.  Did you know that Gattitown gives away FREE gameplay for good grades?  Wow, what a fun treat for those hours spent memorizing spelling words!

The tickets are $7 at the door, but I found a coupon for $2 off from My DFW Mommy!  (She’s the one doing the coupon session – Laura’s AMAZING at saving money!)

Tell your friends!  We’ll see you there!!

The theme of the evening was The Wizard of Oz.  Even the golf carts were festive!  The black-and-white large foyer was transformed as the women sat inside the conference into a beautiful, colorful masterpiece.  We had 2 stations with an extra production station on each so we were really cranking out the flipbooks!  Adding the extra production station to each studio was a great idea because we were able to make flip books right away for each person in the video. 

It was a wonderful event and we want to thank Fellowship Church for having us.  Not a Wicked Witch in sight…we were surrounded by beautiful women with a lot of heart, wisdom and courage!

But wait until I tell you about the rest of the event – delicious, melt-in-your-mouth food from CFY Catering (soooo good!), unbelievable florals by Haute Horticulture (seriously…unbelievable), design work by Social Butterflies (what a cute name!) and fabulous music (wish I would have caught the singer and the bands’ name).  Check out the gorgeous photos from Creation Studios!  Kirk Houston of MarriedinMemphis.com Television and Mid-South Wedding Show was kind enough to include us in his video of the evening:

The good news is that we now have a licensee in Tennessee!  Flipbook Locations

And, of course, we couldn’t leave Memphis without some Neely’s Bbq!  Thank you for your hospitality, Memphis!

The event has gotten some great press.  Check out what Christine Sracic of D Weddings Magazine’s Bridal Buzz Blog said:

“Bride Associates invites you to their Spootacular Soiree, featuring displays of Andrea Polito Photography and Rufus Felix Flowers. Toss back a “berry scary bridezilla” martini (or two) with a side of nibbles from the always-delicious Campisi’s Catering. Plus, you even get to make your own flipbook, courtesy of Pic Flips. Walk away with discounts from The Wedding Party Studio and a goody bag full of Halloween sweets. It’s like trick-or-treating, bridal style. Thursday, October 8, 6-8 p.m. The Wedding Party Studio, 2422 Allen St.”

Daily Candy (which we also absolutely loooove) also included the event in their Weekend Guide!
