Every floral crown is unique, beautifully Bohemian and incredibly feminine. From pretty and delicate to dramatic and luxurious, the options are endless.

You can even buy from her on-line shop to make things incredibly simple!

The price includes all materials, flowers and accessories, along with refreshments and homemade cake!

DE WINTON PAPER CO - BEAUTIFUL HAND PAINTED STATIONERY

Earlier this year I met up with a fabulous lady called Harriet de Winton who had been recommended to me by my friend Kirsten (aka The Little Wedding Helper) to talk about rebranding my other business as a massage therapist, which I’ll be blogging about soon.

It was so great to sit and chat with Harriet - I felt like I’d known her for years as she has such an easy manner, but she’s also really professional and totally ‘got’ my vision for the business. To be honest with you, I was dreading the branding process. I’m not good at getting across what’s in my mind and I really did wonder what on earth Harriet would make of my ramblings about how I wanted it to look. This lady is so talented though, I knew I was in safe hands as soon as we started chatting and I am so incredibly pleased with the results I really want to tell the world about her.

An illustrator and designer, Harriet set up her design studio, The de Winton Paper Co specialising in elegant watercolour hand painted stationery for weddings and every day. Her inspiration comes from a unique wedding gift to her parents which hangs in their family home - a guest used their wedding invitation as the canvas for a watercolour landscape. Recognising what a beautiful and unusual idea this was Harriet began creating for family weddings and The de Winton Paper Co was born.

With a broad range of gorgeous styles pre-designed by Harriet, choosing your wedding invitation couldn't be easier but if you want something unique to you Harriet offers a bespoke service and can transform your wedding invitation into a beautiful and original artwork. A talented calligrapher, Harriet's stunning lettering can elevate your stationery into something truly magical. And, just for fun, she also offers on the day accessories such as 'Wedding Speech Bingo' and guest comment cards.

But her work isn't just for weddings - a hand painted card for any occasion or just a special message can be kept, framed and cherished forever.

Offering a service that will help you every step of the way, even with wording tips for your wedding and a printing and delivery service, you know you're in safe hands with The de Winton Paper Co.

And, of course, the amazing thing about stationery is that you can now order anywhere in the world - whether you're getting married in Borneo or Bristol!

As Harriet herself says ... "Based in Devon, going global".

FRIDA FLOWER CROWNS - BEAUTIFUL BESPOKE FLOWER CROWNS FOR THE BOHO BRIDE

We're very excited the gorgeously romantic Frida Flower Crowns will be joining us for the first time this year and sharing a stand with Cornflower Blue.

Ellys Beale started making flower crown festival headpieces and costumes for friends to wear at festivals about two years ago. It was so much fun that the brand developed from there. She now creates custom-made and bespoke crowns for weddings and dance shows, which she sells from her Etsy shop.

Each flower crown is unique and lovingly made and is the perfect accessory for the boho bride.

EVOKE PICTURES - BEAUTIFUL DOCUMENTARY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

With over 15 years experience as professional wedding photographers in Bristol and the surrounding area, Fran and Chris work in partnership as Evoke Pictures, offering a unique service on your wedding day. They limit their wedding bookings to 25 a year, meaning you get a totally bespoke and personalised service and, on the day, they work unobtrusively in the background, capturing everything naturally and recording the day as it unfolds. As you have two photographers, your wedding is captured through both their lenses so they never miss a moment of your day!

Your guests won't spend hours standing in groups as they aim to take the pictures as quickly as possible so you can get back to having fun, but they'll be there in the background capturing all those wonderful instants that you might miss.

Happy to travel far and wide, as well as documentary wedding photography, they offer a range of other services including family portraits, contemporary head-shots, lifestyle, corporate, interior and event and food photography. In fact they took the stunning photos from last year's Bristol Vintage Wedding Fair, which we adored!
