Barbados Partners With Saks on Bridal Promotion
The Barbados Tourism Authority (BTA) partnered with renowned department store Saks Fifth Avenue and Modern Bride magazine to create the Barbados Bridal Suite, an invitation-only, one-stop event for brides at the Fifth Avenue flagship store on Feb. 19.
Brides-to-be can plan their honeymoon, destination wedding or a pre-wedding bachelorette celebration on Barbados. New York City travel agency, Valerie Wilson Travel, Inc., a member of the Virtuoso network, will be on site to help plan honeymoons or destination weddings. For more information, visit http://www.idobarbados.com/.
At the Barbados Bridal Suite, brides will have an opportunity to learn about exclusive value-added destination weddings, honeymoons and pre-moon vacation offers. They can also peruse high-end vendors as they plan different aspects of their wedding while sipping on a Mount Gay Bajan Rum Punch.
From choosing the perfect scent with Vera Wang Fragrance, to selecting the dream shoe with Stuart Weitzman, having a make-over with Bobbi Brown cosmetics or visiting La Perla and Le Mystere for bridal lingerie, brides-to-be can view, sample and experience all the makings of a perfect wedding.
A highlight of the event will be a series of prize drawings including a four-night trip to the prestigious Crane Resort on the East Coast of Barbados; a bridal gown from A-list designer Melissa Sweet; a headpiece by Tia Mazza Veils; plus other fabulous on-the-spot-prizes.
Saks Fifth Avenue Bridal Salon will stage a fashion show presenting attendees with the latest in bridal couture, including Vera Wang, Melissa Sweet, Oscar de la Renta and other top designers. Additional vendors at the Barbados Bridal Suite include SK-II skin care; Saks Fifth Avenue Salon and Spa; Saks Fifth Avenue Men’s Made-To-Measure and Ready to Wear collections; resort wear from Tory Burch; and Adriana Orsini Jewelry.
