Another event that you do NOT want to miss is the Backstage Bridal 2010!  It’s too bad that both events are happening on the same day, but I guess you can have your choice of either going to Rancho Palos Verdes or Culver City. For the Backstage Bridal, you will “enjoy the sights, sounds and tastes of luxurious weddings and learn some tricks of the trade from participating vendors at the experts’ panel discussions. If you are just beginning your wedding plans, Backstage Bridal: a Luxury Wedding Experience is certain to get you on the right track and if you already have your plans underway, find valuable resources for planning and all the finishing touches.”
