Bridal Fashion on Full Display
The highlight for many attendees was, of course, the bridal fashion show. With custom staging, production-quality sound, lighting, video, and a sparkler dance ending, the runway experience felt straight out of a bridal magazine. The fashion show showcased gowns from Bridal Debut, David’s Bridal and Cameo and Cufflinks, suits from Tip Top and Moores, wedding fashion outfits from Saara Designs, flower girl dresses from Oba’s Closet, and other statement pieces from amazing vendors all worn by models from The Podium Gallery that had every 2026 and 2027 bride, groom, and guest swooning. If you missed the shows at 12:30 pm and 3:30 pm, you definitely missed one of the most visually stunning bridal experiences in Edmonton!
