Okay, I just talked to the organizer of the event and here's updated information. Last year, they had around 10,000 people attend this event. There are 35-40 different business vendors, however most if not all are informational booths...

I would like to start offering a very limited selection of wedding cakes for $199 (as others were discussing on another thread). I need to come up with a good catch phrase or name to call this option. I'm thinking about something along...
