Marry Mart Founders Amelia Walsh and Stephanie Neiheisel

The Marry Mart bridal expo is debuting their first marketplace at The Vintage 45 this September 5th, 2016. Created by designer Amelia Walsh and Makeup Artist Stephanie Neiheisel, both Phoenix locals, The Marry Mart is a traveling marketplace that focuses on showcasing the valley’s best local small business bridal professionals. With a vendor list of over 30 bridal professionals and growing, The Marry Mart aims to change the way people view bridal expos and create opportunity for their fellow industry peers. The event is scheduled to show twice a year, popping up in local venues across the valley every Labor Day and Presidents Day. With workshops and giveaways planned throughout the day The Marry Mart aims to provide a fun and productive day for an entire bridal party.

“Arizona has been listed as one of the top 10 wedding destinations in the US for years now and I think it’s crazy that the local talent here isn’t represented better. Planning a wedding doesn’t have to be stressful you just need to find the right vendors.” Says Co-Founder, Amelia Walsh. “Being small business owners ourselves, Stephanie and I saw a need that was missing here. And that’s an opportunity to not only connect brides and grooms to their wedding team but focus on making their brand come to life in the best venues around the valley.” She went on to add, “It’s about connecting the right couple to the right vendor to make their special day truly spectacular all while supporting local business.” Says Walsh.
