Ferrari revs up for wedding fair
GETTING to the church on time will be no problem in this Ferrari, which has its engine revving for the annual Wakefield Hospice Wedding Show.
Brides and grooms-to-be can get insider advice at the event, which takes place next week.
And star of the show, for car-lovers at least, will be Cartwright's Courtesy Cars brand new Ferrari F430 Spider, which can be hired for that big arrival.
Cartwright's has supported the Hospice Wedding Show since 2001, and will be showing the speed machine alongside its more traditional wedding cars such as Rolls Royces and convertible Beaufords.
Dick Cartwright, owner of the car company, brought the Ferrari to the Aberford Road hospice on Wednesday to help the charity raise awareness of the forthcoming event.
Mr Cartwright said: "We are delighted to have supported the Wakefield Hospice wedding show for over a decade now. It is always a fantastic event and I urge brides and grooms to come along, have a look around and support the charity."
Everything else a bridezilla could dream for on her big day will be on display at the event, from flowers to chocolate fountains.
Local businesses exhibiting include Amazing Brides, Balloonin Marvellous, Smooch, Triffidz Florists and many more.
Event organiser Fiona Day said: "The annual wedding show is always the first event in the hospice calendar and is a lovely way to start the year. We have been well supported by local businesses and over the years the shows have raised over 20,000. It's lovely that we can help couples plan their special day and they can help us raise much needed funds for the
hospice."
Brides on a budget can also check out a wide range of bridal wear, hats and fascinators at the hospice's Westmorland Street shop.
The Wakefield Hospice Wedding Show takes place at the Cedar Court Hotel on Sunday, February 7, from 11am to 4pm.
Entry to the show is free. For further information, call Fiona on 01924 213900.
