Montreal Shaadi Show 2


Montreal Shaadi is a wedding directory for Montreal's south asian community. They hosted their first bridal show on March 24th 2013. I got to see their 5 PM show. They had 2 shows (one at 2 PM and another at 5 PM). The fashion show was good. The outfits were just so beautiful and the model models looked great! Since I got there a little late, I was a little disappointed that I didn't get to try out the food being the foodie that I am.

So when I found out they were hosting their second show on March 16th at Plaza Volare (Crowne Plaza Hotel), I was looking forward to it. I wanted to check out the vendor booths because I was really impressed with some of the booths from last year. Sonia, my best friend's sister, was one of the organizers this year, so I got a free ticket to the show.


But plans changed... They needed some last minute help at the show, so Sonia asked some of us if we can volunteer at the show, and so her sister, my other friend and I ending up volunteering. Click here to read my volunteer experience at the show. 

That's Sonia getting ready for the show

Since I volunteered, I didn't really get to see the show or check out the vendor booths but I got to see some of the highlights of the day by watching the following video by Video Maruty production:
There were a few photographers who covered the event. I shared some of their pictures below but you can check out all their photos on each of their Facebook page:
