The final pictures from our 2012 Wedding Fair


Gorgeous styling is the key to The Little Wedding Helper’s success as her stand at our fair shows...


Our favourite gramophone DJ, Matt from Shellac Sounds, made the day even more enjoyable with his amazing music.


Not only did Claire of The Wilde Bunch have a stunning stand but she brightened up the whole venue with her stunning arrangements:


Absolutely mouth watering macarons (my waistline can attest!) from Absolutely Cakes...


I seriously need a pair of these wedding wellies from Bridezillas.


Our fave band ‘The Tender Trap’ entertaining us as always:


We ALL had fun with Fishee Designs’ Vintage photo booth!


The stylish suits from A Suit That Fits went down a storm with our grooms to be...


We could spend hours browsing the upcycled clothes and getting style advice from Janine of Custard House Clothing:


I was lucky enough to stand next to Lizzie from Chocolate Delores (o.k. I admit I planned it) – the best cakes around – they look unbelievable and taste even better!


And we were completely seduced by the beautiful bespoke lingerie from Itsy Bitsy (thanks to Rachel Goodchild for the photo).




Our thanks as well to Dawn Wilkins for her beautiful photography.  Check back with us soon to meet some more wonderfully inspirational people in the wedding industry and for news about next years Bristol Vintage Wedding Fair!

Travelling in Style

We were lucky enough to have the most amazing vehicles exhibiting at our Fair this year - perfect for your wedding car or your guests' transport.

Chrome Occasions brought along their stunning 1959 Cadillac - ideal for the vintage bride and groom.



This sleek Citroen Elysee DS will make you feel like the chicest couple.




You can hire one of Cool Classy Campers' beautiful restored VW camper vans for your wedding day and for your honeymoon too.




With no carbon footprint, Pedal Power's rickshaw has to be one of the most romantic ways to travel.



And City Sightseeing's amazing vintage buses are a fun way to transport all your guests on the day.



Our thanks to Dawn Wilkins for the beautiful photos.  We've many more to come, so do check back soon.

Our February 2012 Fair: Vintage Gifts & Stationery

We think one of these gorgeous vintage picnic hampers from Life's A Picnic makes the perfect wedding present!




...and why not wrap it up [or indeed any gift] in this stunning wrapping paper below from Rachel Goodchild Designs...




How about an original Babydoll negligee set from Clifton Hill Antique Costume & Textiles as a present just for you?




or some beautiful bespoke cards and notes from Meticulous Ink...




and capture all the perfect mementos of your day in one of Erika Glanville's bespoke memory frames.


Our thanks again to Dawn Wilkins for all the photos.  Do pop back soon for more vintage inspiration!
