CAPITALE, 130 Bowery, NYC
words/images Judith Ecochard
It always amazes us that when we leave a Wedding Salon tradeshow
event-there's a queue out the door, populated by brides-to-be (mostly)...waiting to get checked in.
The latest Big Apple edition took place off the bustling Canal Street and restaurant/lighting equipment stores on the LES side ---inside the glorious Standford White designed Beaux Arts structure, Capitale---a stand out building
anywhere.

| This is how you get a crowd-pass out yummy samples of wedding cake-Palermo Bakery |
 |
| we were told by the gal in the white jacket that there's a 2-3 months lead time for wedding cake orders...we couldn't believe it. |
Packed ---even when we got there at 4:30PM...the venue had a crowd---they was buzzing...and genuinely checking out the table settings and other exhibitors...not just casually strolling through.
 |
| Kleinfeld had princess-y Cinderella and more sophisticated gowns scattered throughout...so pretty! |
 |
| Our obsession-the press on, idiot proof nails by KISS® |
 |
| AND---the most popular style of false eyelashes...easy to apply with that string. |
 |
| Capitale ---jammed with attendees-like a fab cocktail party. |
We are always impressed with the table designs---even if not our personal taste---all are stunning.
 |
| destination weddings are popular...though we have a pal on her 9th this year alone...and is like enough already. |
