The Omni Parker House Hosts Annual “Brides of Distinction”

The historic Omni Parker House will host its 12th Annual "Brides of Distinction" Bridal Brunch & Fashion Show on Sunday, April 7 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event will provide brides the opportunity to plan their perfect wedding by meeting with top local vendors and wedding experts. The Omni Parker House will host this event in its newly renovated Rooftop Ballroom - the only rooftop hotel ballroom in Boston.

Brides-to-be will be greeted with a mimosa and will enjoy brunch, cake and a wedding gown fashion show, hosted by Flair Bridal & Bridesmaid of Boston, while seated at lavishly decorated tables with the latest floral arrangements and linen designs. Jenny Johnson from "TV Diner" on New England Cable News will again emcee the event.

"The wedding is an apex in a couple's life, and our Brides of Distinction event showcases how the Omni Parker House caters to every need on that special day," said Dave Ritchie, director of sales and marketing for the Omni Parker House. "With the setting of the beautifully renovated rooftop ballroom, and the help of our local partners, we will strive to make sure no detail is amiss for couples planning their weddings."

The Omni Parker House has arranged for companies to showcase their offerings, including Madison Floral, Rentals Unlimited, Person & Killian Photography, Beacon Hill Photography, Montilio's Baking Company, The Gilded Harps, Joseph Gann Jewelers, Invitations & Company, Wedding Tresses Hair Design & Makeup Artistry, AVT Event Technologies and The Knot. Upon departure, each bride-to-be will receive a gift bag provided by The Knot and other partners.

Furthermore, the Omni Parker House is giving future brides another reason to choose the hotel as their wedding venue through the "Win Your Wedding" sweepstakes. The contest gives couples who host their wedding event at the Rooftop Ballroom the opportunity to win up to $50,000. The winner will be chosen in January 2014, and full details are available on the Wedding section of Omni Parker House.
