BRIDE and Bliss Wedding and Events Expo returns to Davao City for a bigger and bolder vision, bringing in luxury hotels, top lifestyle brands, and exclusive deals on Sept. 12-13 at the SMX Convention Center.
Monina Evangelista, president and CEO of MRE Events and Marketing Inc., said they will host grander expos every year to help the wedding and events business grow and help couples and event enthusiasts with their planning. It also provides Davao with a larger avenue and premium space focused on businesses.
She added they are aiming to have more exhibitors than last year’s event and hoping for more serious buyers.
“Our expo last year proved to be successful even if it was inaugural. We had confirmed around P2.5-M in on-the-spot booking fees,” she said during a launching event on July 30.
This year’s expo will introduce a new corner for the groom, a lounge set up of businesses and services which includes a mobile bar, lifestyle exhibitors for the men, a golf area, and others.
In addition, a grand food and beverage tasting will be held at the event that is prepared by one of the event’s major participants.
Bride and Bliss Expo offers several showcases from wedding professionals, event suppliers, designers, jewelers, as well as travel providers.
New collaborations were forged for the upcoming event to further strengthen Davao’s position as a premier destination for weddings and Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) events.
Organized by MRE Events and Marketing Inc., the expo is a platform that promotes partnerships and supports local businesses with its vision to become the biggest and most influential wedding and celebrations expo in Mindanao.
Launched in 2025, the previous event had over 70 exhibitors, more than 800 qualified attendees, and P15–20M in estimated sales generated.
