My Wedding Library will host a free Wedding Faire from noon-4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 30 at The Summit Mall. The Summit is located at the intersection of South Virginia Street and Mt. Rose Highway on Reno's South end. My Wedding Library is next to Victoria's Secret and Bath & Body Works at The Summit.
Beth Jones, who started My Wedding Library with her husband Chris, explained, "We're not wedding planners, we're a free resource center to empower brides and others to find florists, bakers and other vendors who may work out of their home or a commercial kitchen and need help marketing their services."

The mission of My Wedding Library, is twofold, Jones added: "We provide convenience for couples and more exposure for these businesses."
She and her associate Brooke Smith-La Fata each have about 10 years of experience in the wedding industry. They work with around 100 vendors from the greater Reno-Tahoe area and present a wide range of options to their clients.
"The bride," said Jones, "and when I say the bride, I also mean the groom, the mother of the bride and others involved, want choice and recommendations and referrals. Everyone's taste is different. So I say to them, 'These six cake-makers are awesome. Reach out to all of them.' People with the same budget may want entirely different things. We recommend a range."
And although the business is called My Wedding Library, it also offers resources for other events, such as graduation or anniversary parties, where people may want to rent a venue and hire a caterer, musicians or a photographer. My Wedding Library is also gearing up for the holiday season by incorporating wedding or anniversary gifts.
At the Sept. 30 Wedding Faire, vendors will set up displays and provide samples, discounts and promotions in My Wedding Library's actual suite and an additional suite next door.
