CRESTLINE — The Galion-Crestline Area Chamber of Commerce (GCACC) will present the 2023 Wedding Expo on Saturday, March 4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at The Hub at Village Square, 311 N. Seltzer St, Crestline.
This free event is open to anyone in the community. Engaged couples in particular, though, will enjoy the opportunity to meet with dozens of local wedding vendors, win door prizes and other prizes, and get discounts – all as they plan their special day.
The first 100 attendees to arrive at the event will receive a free ‘expo bag’ filled with goodies and helpful information from participating vendors.
“We are honored to host the Wedding Expo once again,” said GCACC Executive Director Miranda Jones. “It’s a fun way to increase local awareness of this wonderful venue, and to support our members who provide wedding-related goods and services.”
The Hub at Village Square is an 11,000 square-foot wedding and event center that has been beautifully renovated from its former use as a retail space.
Under new management by Braeden and Bethany Rachel, the rain-or-shine facility is the perfect place to exchange vows or hold any large gatherings.
