Atkins to host first Wedding Fair

The free event takes place on Saturday 25 February from 10am to 4pm and offers couples planning a wedding or civil ceremony the opportunity to meet face-to-face with an array of independent local wedding suppliers and businesses who could play a part in their day, including suppliers of:

• Bespoke bridal wear
• Cakes, flowers, stationery and confectionery
• Hair styling, nails and beauty
• Men’s suits
• Photography
• Jewellery
• Car hire
• Entertainment and venue decoration
   

There will also be an opportunity to purchase unique crafts and gifts to make that special day stand out. The Wedding Fair has been arranged to coincide with the open day of Hinckley Register Office, which moved from the former register office on Mount Road to the Atkins Building one year ago. To celebrate its first anniversary at Atkins, Hinckley registrars will be holding a free prize draw in which a prospective couple can win a free ceremony.  Registrars will also be on hand to offer tours of Atkins facilities to couples who have not yet booked a venue.

Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council Leader, Councillor Stuart Bray, said: “It is good to see the Atkins Building being used in this way. I would urge anyone planning a ceremony to go along and see what’s on offer from our local independent businesses.”

Entry to the wedding fair is free, no booking is required. For more information contact Rebecca Wilbur, Atkins Business Centre Adviser, on 01455 247070.
