41st Annual Connecticut Bridal Expo

The 41st Annual Connecticut Wedding & Bridal Expo is a large wedding-planning exhibition produced by Jenks Productions at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford. Scheduled for February 6–7, 2027, it brings fashion presentations and a broad range of wedding vendors together so couples can compare services and products in one place.

When and where

The expo runs Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Connecticut Convention Center, 100 Columbus Blvd., Hartford, Connecticut. Published admission is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors 65+, and free for children under 12.

What to expect

The emphasis is on one-stop wedding planning. Exhibitors span bridal gowns and accessories, formalwear, planners, florists and décor, DJs and bands, photographers and videographers, venues and banquet facilities, catering, jewelry, transportation, beauty services, and other wedding-related categories; the event also incorporates bridal fashion shows.

Who produces it

Jenks Productions organizes the expo as part of its broader schedule of home and bridal shows across the Northeast. The company dates to 1979, making this Hartford event part of a long-running regional exhibition program rather than a newly established wedding fair.

Why it stands out

The event is designed around comparison and convenience: multiple providers in major wedding categories allow attendees to evaluate styles, services, and price points during a single weekend. The organizer describes it as the largest bridal and wedding expo on the East Coast; Connecticut’s official tourism site also highlights the 41st edition among the state’s notable 2027 bridal events.
