A spectacular weekend – Part 2
We’re back with Part 2 of our Wedding Spectacular Weekend coverage. Held at the Wyndham Kingston, Hotel, the two-day event proved to be much more electrifying than the usual banal wedding expo. With high-energy fashion shows and quite a number of highly anticipated sponsored giveaways, the wedding expo received Vows’ stamp of approval. “This is better than the music business,” joked Geejam Collections co-owner Steve Beaver, patron at the event.
