Expo, children’s show and music this weekend
HEADING down the aisle soon? If so, then don’t miss the FAB Bridal Expo at Venue DÁria in Durbanville this weekend.
Pick up tips and ideas from the designers, flower artists, wedding and event co- ordinators, photographers and cake companies at the event, and from the venues, invitations, and jewellery on offer.
Here is your chance to pick a venue, book a honeymoon, meet a dress designer and design your invitations. The expo, now in its 18th year, will also feature fashion shows, a competition and music. Tickets cost R80 at the entrance, and children under 12 can enter for free. The expo takes place today and tomorrow, from 9am until 4.30pm.
Fans of UK children’s show Peppa Pig have a chance to see their favourite characters at the Cape Town Convention Centre today and tomorrow.
