“Following the success of last year’s fayre, we’re really excited to be hosting the fayre again with Poundon House. We’ve tried to stay clear of the run of the mill wedding fayre with rows of tables of literature, ensuring that as the Bride & Groom walk around the venue, they can visualize their most memorable occasion taking place at Poundon House. At the same time, we have personally vetted each of the suppliers who will be exhibiting, and who will very generously be offering all kinds of incentives to brides and grooms on the day.“ – Amore Weddings & Events

Recent comments from a couple and an exhibitor who attended the Poundon House Wedding Fayre:

“Last year we were at the initial stages of planning our wedding… we had contacted Amore and they recommended that we visit a wedding fayre at Poundon House so that we could meet with them and meet other exhibitors/suppliers. The wedding fayre was much more intimate and personal than we had expected. It was really good to meet with the suppliers, actually sit down with them and talk through with them our views and thoughts, which is something you just cannot do at the national wedding shows. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the Poundon House Fusion Wedding Fayre. We came away with names and details of many suppliers who we ended up booking for our special day!” – Leena & Vishal Lakhani
