Does anyone have any ideas of some great ways to give vendors (i.e. florists, bakeries, bridal stores, etc,) your information? If a pamphlet, what should it look like and consist of?

In my experience a packet doesn't really do much. Find out who the real players are in your area; the ones that can actually influence a bride or a venue, and ask for a little face time. If you don't have that up-front conversation there is a good chance that your packet will have one of two final resting places; 1) with a small-time vendor who can't really help you get any work, or 2) with the rest of the noise mail received by the major players.

That being said your packet should contain whatever you usually use to try to sell your brides.

Thanks for that, we will figure out who those vendors are.
