Promotional Spotlight: The Citizen’s Voice Something Borrowed Pre-Owned Wedding Market

The Citizens’ Voice (Wilkes-Barre) is hosting a special event for both brides and grooms-to-be on Sunday, Sept. 17. The Something Borrowed pre-owned wedding market offers newlyweds, DIY vendors, wedding planners, and others the opportunity to make some money from their gently used or handmade wedding-related items. Private party vendors pay just $25 for a table to sell items such as chair covers, votive candle holders, centerpieces, cake stands, photo booth props, etc. Engaged couples benefit from having the opportunity to purchase the supplies they need for their dream wedding at an affordable price.

Retailers with a storefront or e-commerce business are also invited to participate in the event for a fee of $125. A local bridal salon will display and sell their sample wedding gowns and special occasion dresses. An image of each of the available dresses is posted online so those interested can preview the choices before arriving.

A general admission ticket for the event is $5 online or at the door, and a limited number of early bird tickets that allow early entrance (and a better chance of snatching up the best items) are $15.

There is no out-of-pocket expense to The Citizens’ Voice for hosting the event. Vendors will display their items on tables in an area of the newspaper building that is unoccupied. The event itself is being advertised in/on Times Shamrock-owned media properties, and signage is being printed in-house.
