Deciding to Attend a Bridal Show

In my last article I discussed how some brides-to-be find it helpful to attend a bridal show. If you are one of these women the first thing that you are probably asking is, “Where are the shows?” There are several different ways that you can find out where and when bridal shows are held.

Hurley tells the Italian version of Vanity Fair that she will soon wed her boyfriend of three years, Indian businessman Arun Nayar. “I can’t reveal the date, but it’s very close,” the 41-year-old Hurley tells the magazine. “And we are also thinking of having a child.” Personally, I couldn’t be happier for her.
