Looking for ALTERNATIVE WEDDING INSPIRATION?
No matter what part of the planning stages you find yourself, you’re guaranteed to find some quirky, colourful alternative wedding inspiration here! It’s all about adding little touches to really let your personalities shine. No more seas of beige! I’m here to make your planning journey a little easier by sharing some AMAZING wedding suppliers and alternative wedding ideas with you.
The Preparations
If you are planning on having hair and makeup, find someone who specialises in alternative weddings and understands the vibe you are going for – and make sure you take them up on the trial session so you know exactly what to expect. Lindsey from Oh You Pretty Things will absolutely have your back and create something utterly magical for your hair, and Mary from Make Up by Mary LJ will accentuate all your best bits.
The dress
If someone is planning on wearing a dress, you cannot go wrong with a stunning, custom made dress by Riley and Flynn. The choices are endless and she will make you feel amazing by working with your vision. You can mix things up a bit and have a black overdress if you didn’t want to fully commit to a pure black dress.
ACCESSORIES
Alternative wedding inspiration is all about the accessories! The options really are endless and incorporating your greatest loves into your wedding day is what makes it totally unique. Lottie at Paper Ink Alchemy is incredible at creating artwork on leather jackets, denim jackets, boots and everything else that’s screaming out to become a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Scarlett and Wolfe Headwear create gorgeous headpieces that really reflect your personality – whether it’s gorgeously gothic, or cool and colourful – you will fall in love all over again.
CONFETTI
Go hard or go home! The perfect motto when it comes to wedding confetti. If you’re looking for alternative wedding inspiration and have been wondering what confetti to use, find big, colourful, biodegradable paper confetti. It falls better than petals or the small white stuff you can buy at card shops, and it REALLY stands out on camera, giving your photos punch and colour! I always give my couples some confetti in their welcome packs so they can see what looks the best. The bonus is that with lots of confetti suppliers, you can mix and match the colours to match your colour scheme. The stunning confetti in these shots is made by the lovely Starbox Creations – look how it pops!
Alternative wedding inspiration
Adding some little extra touches can make your wedding a cut above and extra fun! Your Cool Wedding Ice Cream provide delicious homemade ice cream from a unique bike trailer combo!
There are so many options for flowers – whether you want them real or artificial and how colourful you are looking for. There are so many amazing designers who can work with your vision. The flowers in this blog are by Hiden Floral Design.
