A CUMBRIAN aesthetics clinic has announced it will be the headline sponsor of the county’s premier wedding show, which will have a special focus on diversity this year.

VL Aesthetics, based in Carlisle, will sponsor Cumbria’s Premier Wedding Show, which will take place on February 26 from 11am to 4pm at Carlisle Racecourse.

The show, which attracted 700 visitors last year, will focus on reflecting the diverse range of couples who get married - no matter what their race, religion, nationality, orientation, clothing size or physical ability.

It will feature around 50 exhibitors and two choreographed bridal catwalks, including models of colour and those with disabilities.

Managing director Vanessa Brown said it often worked with brides and grooms to help them feel the best they can on their special day.

Vanessa said: “As the premier aesthetics clinic in Cumbria, we decided to sponsor the Premier Cumbria Wedding Show because a bride wants to look and feel as good as they can on their special day, and at VL Aesthetics our ethos is clear - to help improve the way you look and feel without surgery.

“At VL Aesthetics, we provide our clients with the best experience from start to finish. From initial enquiry and consultation, through to the experience of the actual treatment and aftercare - we aim to provide exceptional service at each point in the client journey.

“Our team of highly skilled nurses, doctors and aesthetic therapists are committed to supporting our clients every step of the way; from their initial consultation right through to their desired outcome and can offer solutions to a wide range of common skin and body concerns through our comprehensive list of treatments.

During the show, VL Aesthetics will be showcasing four of its top performing treatments - The Emerald Laser, Emsculpt Neo, Emsella and Dermalux - at a scaled down version of its clinic.

As headline sponsor, it will also be offering some special prizes to attendees. Everyone who, following on from the wedding show, purchases a package of VL Aesthetics treatments before the end of March 2023 will be entered into the prize draw to win a Tiffany bracelet.

The event will also be offering a £20,000 Wedding Giveaway, which can be won by one lucky couple on the day.
