The first ever Indie I Do show took place January 2009 and was a resounding success! Billed as Vancouver’s first alternative wedding show we brought together over 30 of the area’s local, independent, edgy vendors for an event like no other. We wanted to show that there are alternatives to frilly and white, and whether you’re a totally off beat couple, a same sex pair, or even a tradtional bride looking to add a touch of something different to a more conventional affair that there are options.

All told, we had over 700 people through the doors including a lineup down the block before we opened. The raves and reviews have been tremendous both from vendors and from all of our brides, grooms, and attendees – there is no question that this has been a long time coming in this city.

Looking forward to seeing everyone for an even better year 2!
