Celebrate! Party Showcase in Fairfield March 25 - Hot party ideas for weddings, Sweet 16s, milestone birthdays, Bar Mitzvahs!

Celebrate! Party Showcase, now in its 20th year, will take place at the Hyatt Regency in Greenwich, Connecticut on Sunday, March 25th from noon until 5:00 pm. Admission is free and according to this year's organizers Davler Media Group, more than 70 vendors will be on hand to talk about the newest and hottest ideas for planning a wedding or any other big event or party in 2012 and beyond.

"Visitors to Celebrate! Party Showcase are often looking for that special idea or spark to make their engagement party, wedding, Sweet 16, anniversary celebration, milestone birthday party, or Bar Mitzvah unique and different," stated David Miller, President of Davler Media Group and Director of this year's event. Vendors and suppliers will showcase their new products and party ideas and New York tri-state area party venues will also be available to talk about great locations for parties and how choose a perfect event location. "Celebrate! offers a highly efficient way to obtain exciting new ideas and information thanks to so many vendors all in one place." Davler recently hosted Celebrate! Party Showcase in Teaneck, New Jersey with more than 1,000 people in attendance.

Throughout the afternoon there will be giveaways and prizes as well as discounts offered to party planners. Vendors this year are from all over the NY metro area, many from Westchester County, several from Connecticut, while others are coming from Rockland County and as far away as Atlanta, Georgia. "There is something for every type of party at Celebrate! this year. Our goal was to make it bigger and better and encompass a wide range of party options for everyone planning that next special event," stated Miller.
