    cool! 2 questions: I am an indie minister/wedding celebrant...are there any other wedding officiants/celebrants out there that might want to share a booth?

    and As a spiritual counselor and relationship counselor for many years (won't say how much) I have a lot of information as to how to make the wedding (and marriage!) successful ...and fun! Will you have speakers/presenters at all?

    Hi Rev. Elke,

    Thanks so much for your interest in our show. We are always looking for vendors for the show, and we can certainly try to help you find someone to share a booth with. Would you be open to sharing a booth with someone who did something different than what you do?

    We are going to have a reading/Q&A/helpful hints from local author Ariel Meadow Stallings who wrote "Offbeat Bride" (www.offbeatbride.com). She will be having a booth at the show selling her book and talking with future indie brides.

    We are also working on an as yet "special indie crafter guest", who I can only say is the Martha Stewart of the indie craft world. She may do a craft class and/or a presntation of some kind.

    We are going to have a fashion show as well. All the details can be found on our website at www.iheartindieweddings.com .

    Please email me at iheartrummage@hotmail.com if you are interested in participating.

    Thanks, Cassandra
