We Visited the Designer Vintage Bridal Show 2012!

Written by Bespoke Bride, Posted in Fairs & Shows

And what a show it was! An array of talented businesses were awaiting us at Hagley Hall and little did we know just how inspired and captivated we were going to leave this wedding fair feeling!

We kicked off the day as any proper, English girls would; With a cup of tea and a scone or two at Miss Lily’s Tea Room! We were seated in a dainty little room with a fabulous 1920′s feel while we sipped down our tea ready for the afternoon ahead!

Our Top 12 Alternative Bridal Bouquets

Written by Bespoke Bride, Posted in Florals and Bouquets

Good Afternoon my lovelies,

Its safe to say we are both now fully recovered after a rather messy night on Saturday. Its very rare we get to go out together as we are usually so busy, but when we do golly do we have fun.

Continuing with our fetish for all things alternative, we have once again trawled one of our favourite sites ETSY for our favourite Alternative bridal bouquets to share with you today. As much as we love flowers there are many others that dont or would rather not use them in their wedding. Some of these ideas are perfect for those considering a more environmentally friendly wedding day or for those who love to recycle, there are a plethora of alternatives. One of the awesome things about these bouquets is that unlike flowers they can be kept at home as a memory of your day long after your wedding.
