In 2016, the Bridal Brunch Tour took the country by storm from the East Coast to the West Coast. This year, we took the show south to Dallas, Texas. On July 30, 2017, The Bridal Brunch took over the Hotel Crescent Court in Dallas, Texas for a luxury filled afternoon complete with elite wedding industry professionals, a high fashion bridal gown segment and tantalizing brunch fare. This intimate, boutique style wedding planning event allows engaged couples exclusive access to expert panelists, live entertainment and a swanky gift bag.

Here at Black Bride, It is our goal to ensure that engaged couples are educated about the wedding planning process. What better way to do that than to ask the experts? Our panel was moderated by Christy Record and included wedding planning experts CK Alexander, Richard McClure, Amber Knowles, Ashley Mason, and Debra Powell. We tackled questions about everything from how to blend different visions for one wedding to how to select the perfect gown silhouette for your body type.

We are so grateful for all of the amazing sponsors and exhibitors who made this Bridal Brunch a huge success. Be sure to connect with our wonderful sponsors. We will see you at the next Bridal Brunch Tour stop.
