North Carolina’s Annual ‘Black is Beautiful Bridal Show’ Set for Sunday in Charlotte
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Brides, grooms, and wedding planners will gather in Charlotte this Sunday for the annual “Black is Beautiful Bridal Show,” an event dedicated to showcasing diversity in the wedding industry and highlighting Black-owned businesses.
A Celebration of Culture and Community
Presented by the Buy Black Guide, the event aims to create a space where couples can connect with vendors who celebrate culture and inclusivity. Founder Temoura Jeffries, who launched the Triad-based initiative, said the show is about more than just planning a wedding—it’s about representation and community.
“This is a way to uplift businesses and ensure that every couple feels seen in the wedding industry,” Jeffries said while previewing the event on Local Vibe.
Event Details
The Black is Beautiful Bridal Show will be held on Sunday, August 24, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. at The Pine in Charlotte. Guests will have the opportunity to meet local vendors, explore interactive exhibits, and get inspiration for their big day.
The show also features curated experiences that highlight fashion, décor, catering, and photography services, offering a one-stop showcase for wedding planning.
Uplifting Black-Owned Businesses
