In 2008, creatives alike came together to host the first Big Fake Wedding to showcase their products and services. Years later, The Big Fake Wedding is attended by over 5,000 guests and 1,000 vendors annually across 30+ events in 25 cities. Engaged couples get to experience and shop with local boutique vendors and form connections before making an investment towards their special day. The event serves as a source of inspiration, a resource in finding trusted wedding vendors and an emotional reminder to plan for what comes after the wedding: a marriage! For participating wedding vendors, the event exposes their business to new referral sources, while also exposing each vendor to a wealth of inspiration, resources and confidence to take their business to the next level.

The Big Fake Wedding exists to promote small businesses, inspire couples and encourage solid marriages. We create a platform where brands can showcase themselves at their best, and we provide a space for authentic conversations and relationships to develop. The result is a network of like-minded business owners with future clients at their fingertips.
