What if you could have the wedding of your dreams for 1/2 the cost?
That’s EXACTLY what will happen to one lucky bride this December. Excellent Christmas present!
Not only will the lucky bride receive 1/2 off any wedding package at the Balch, we have many other fantastic vendors offering either 1/2 off or other special prizes from their services. There are photographers, florists, hair, makeup, rentals, gifts, planners, and much more! Even more vendors will be added at the end of this month!
Check out the Sweepstakes Page on the Balch site to find out how to enter, get more information, and click on the links to see the quality vendors that are participating!
