Craig Jacobs’ latest designs at the East Rand Wedding Show
Fresh off the SA Fashion Week ramp, leading local label, Fundudzi by Craig Jacobs, joins an impressive line-up of the country’s top bridal brands which will be showcasing their collections at the very first East Rand Wedding Show at Emperors Palace Centre Court on July 12 and 13.
Taking place over two days, the show promises to be the answer to the needs of every bride-to-be and will feature over 130 of SA’s leading wedding specialists, live demonstrations, giveaways and prizes.
The East Rand Wedding Show is the first wedding show to offer three competitions at a combined value of R200 000.
One lucky couple will win a “Dream African Bush Wedding” worth over R70 000.
The second competition involves a live “Wedding Trivia Competition” where 10 couples will battle it out to win a VIP Wedding Package valued at R125 000.
The third interactive and fun “Get-Sticky-With-It” competition will offer show visitors prizes valued up to R10 000 per day.
Meanwhile, African inspired label Fundudzi by Craig Jacobs, which is globally renowned for its ethical and eco stance in its designs, will lead the line-up at the event’s innovative Power Half Hour fashion shows.
The Power Half Hour shows will give visitors to the show an opportunity to not only experience a high-wattage fashion show, produced by Frankly Wild, but also give prospective brides the opportunity to get up close to the creations, and engage directly with each designer or representative.
Fundudzi by Craig Jacobs will feature its forthcoming Spring Summer 2014/15 collection, which was first showcased at SA Fashion Week earlier this year, and made history by being the very first to be showcased at Africa’s busiest airport, O R Tambo International, in Ekurhuleni.
Other labels participating in the Power Half Hour shows include the David Tlale brand, Pronovias and Olivelli.
This boutique-style show will provide brides and grooms with magical inspiration, creative design, splendour and sophistication to make their special day unforgettable, all under one roof.
The Emperors Palace Centre Court doors will open at 7am.
The entrance fee will include a show magazine, shopper goodie bag and full day’s access to fashion shows and demonstrations.
Additionally, The East Rand Wedding Show will welcome Kardashian Beauty South Africa as the exclusive make-up sponsor for the wedding show.
