Brides Style Shop

Join Brides magazine for this one-night event, where a $35 ticket (bridesstyleshop.com) gets you and your partner access to a curated group of wedding-gown and accessory vendors (such as Hearts on Fire jewelry), cake and flower companies (including Eat Cake Be Merry), and food and cocktail options (such as Chandon wine). You can also nab gratis Essie manicures, and hair and makeup trials from John Barrett Salon and Instyler. Dudes will get free haircuts from Frank’s Chop Shop and whiskey samplings from the Whiskey Dog. Enter to win prizes such as a honeymoon to Fiji, and take home a gift bag with goods from Clarisonic, Essie, Macy’s and Crest.
