And just like that….
Who can believe the Taranaki Weddings Show is done and dusted for another year?
We’ve been doing this 12 years now and over the years we’ve seen so much change, so much creativity but above all else - we’ve seen community and that’s what it’s ALL about! The community. It’s about giving our Wedding Community a platform to grow, to promote, to collaborate and to communicate.
The weeks leading up to this years Wedding Show were filled with SO much stress, tension and frustration. If you’d asked me a few days ago about next years Wedding Show I’d have told you with almost complete certainty that there wouldn’t be another - because this years Wedding Show felt like it might be the one that finally broke me.
But yesterday morning, in the last hour before we opened the doors - I stood in the venue surrounded by incredible creativity. I saw Vendors greeting each other with hugs, giving last minute compliments on each others outfits and stall designs, asking for advice on final touches and generally supporting and encouraging each other to make the best of the day. The air was filled with positivity, excitement and a real sense of community.
And all I felt was pride.
We can’t wait to share more from the day and about the future of Taranaki Weddings and our events but for now, we celebrate the success of the 2025 Taranaki Weddings Show. We rest, we recharge and then we reset.
