Wedding Guide:

Wedding Guide Written By Tracy Brown From White Lily Green

The Big Day

Congratulations, you're getting married! Your big day will be as beautiful and unique as you are so choosing your accessories is almost as important as choosing the venue and that special dress.

We Make London are showcasing some of the most talented handmade designers at their Summer Fair later this month. So to help you with your choices, here are my Wedding favourites from the exhibiting Designers.


If you are looking for original, bespoke accessories for your Wedding, then check out Bobbie Lane. They can cater for your needs from Cravats for the Groom to centrepieces for the tables.



Share The Feeling employ local people with learning difficulties to use their magic on creating ©Little Gifts of Feeling. These are gorgeous little bags filled with 'special ingredients' to symbolise a special emotion such as happiness, luck or love. A soon to be married couple decided to use these bags as wedding favours and I think that is an brilliant idea. They offer a bespoke service, so contact them to discuss your needs.

Almost edible also offer a bespoke service for wedding favours. Who wouldn't be thrilled to find one of their gorgeous pampering treats on the table?




Accessories for the Bride and Bridesmaids

So, you've chosen the perfect dress, now it's time to find the finishing touches.

When choosing a head piece, you will need to consider how you will be wearing your hair on the big day. Here's my favourite head pieces from the We Make London summer exhibitors.


Mini Swarovski crystal fascinator - Gold by Florio Designs



Pearl and Crystal Butterfly and Flower Tiara by Dainty Pretty Things


Rose & Pearl Bridal Wedding Veil by Hatastic


Dressing for a summer wedding

Florals and great hats, classic silks and timeless looks.... whatever your style the We Make summer exhibitors have what you are looking for.


Bagatelles and Co Create some stunning clutch bags that are perfect for summer weddings. Made from upcycled silk, they add luxury and classic beauty to your outfit.



Jardin de fleur create some the most beautiful designer hats, fascinators and headbands I have everseen. I adore the paper flowers headband from their Hat box archive.






I love the Now, Voyager Red Romance Corsage. Their Pin-up style is fabulous and I think that look is perfect to wear to a wedding. I adore the 40/50's era, so stylish.
