Looking Back: 2026 Seasons Of Love Bridal Show & Engagement Party Recap

Feb 10

The Elliot and NPi Entertainment were overjoyed to host the 2026 installment of Seasons Of Love, a bridal show that’s not just a show…but a whole engagement party! Brides, grooms, family members, wedding party friends, curious couples, and beyond trekked their way through the wintry snow of Cleveland on Janury 18 to chat with wedding pros, find some big day inspiration, and eat, eat, EAT their way through the city’s most delicious bakers and makers. Here’s everything guests enjoyed during the Cleveland wedding show.

The Ballroom

The ballroom offered every couple, family member, and friend a living wedding mood board. Curated Vessel, L’Nique Linens, WeddingChairs.net, and Nikki's Perfect Petal Designs all joined forces to craft tablescapes uniquely themed for all four seasons. With mimosas in hand, attendees examined stationery options with Minor Details, enjoyed Precious Petals’ dazzling flower installation, and learned about all the ways NPi Entertainment can make engaged couples’ reception dreams come to life.

And we can’t forget about the food! Taste Of Excellence and Lago Custom Events made sure everyone was full of delicious burrata toast and mouth-watering sage-butter gnocchi. To top it all off, The Elliot had not one…not two…but three pastry icons in the building. Cakes By KT, Hearth Patisserie, and K2 Cakes satisfied sweet tooths with towering cakes, cookies, and assorted treats.

The Balcony

Everything is better under the iconic stained glass window, in our humble opinion! Here, Seasons Of Love couples had the chance to feel their most fashionable. Miranda’s Vintage Bridal and JL Custom Clothiers offered style inspo, Mane Chic consulted on all things wedding beauty and hair, Linked By Laur shared her permanent jewelry prowess, and artist LeighXO live-illustrated each guest in the cutest ways imaginable.

Attendees also hopped into The Elliot’s bell tower dressing room to snap dazzling editorial-style portraits with the always amazing Lauren Kwan. Couples, friends, family members, and vendors all got to feel like true Vanity Fair models, and we think they all deserve to be on a magazine cover. Don’t you?

The Rosehip Room

The Rosehip Room is always the place to find a good party! Once attendees stepped into the moody speakeasy, they were immediately greeted by the sounds of Opus 216 and bartenders with signature venue cocktails and wine samples. Of course, you can’t have a cocktail without some delicious snacks to pair it with. Marigold Catering shared delicious charcuterie bites, and Nosh Creative Catering plated their beloved sliders and skewers for all to enjoy. And, don’t worry, Papa Cannoli was around to freshly craft cannoli for sweet treat lovers, too. Guests also had the chance to pop into the SugarBooth for some photo fun, chat with Wed Society for some wedding inspo, and interview with Bridechilla for a live podcast recording. And yes…the iconic F**k It Bucket was in attendance.
