Bristol Vintage Wedding Fair 2014

Last Sunday was one of my favourite wedding fairs, the glorious Bristol Vintage at Clifton Pavilion, Bristol Zoo. Each year Ali from Bristol Vintage brings together a group of hand picked wedding suppliers who offer something very special to visitors who come from far and wide.

         
                                

    
                               


It really is a treat for vintage lovers and anyone who wants a pretty vintage inspired wedding.

There were beautiful original vintage dresses on display as well as bespoke creations. Jessica Charleston, LK Bespoke Bridal and Heavenly Vintage offered some gorgeous choices for discerning brides. 

                               

     
                               


Hermione Harbutt and Bridezillas were on hand to offer beautiful sparkling accessories. 

Live music was provided with Bristol's very own Michael Buble, the talented JP Crooner, acoustic guitar and vocals form Matt Bee and even Mr Sawtime playing a saw. Seems odd I know but it's actually rather beautiful and must be seen (and heard) to be believed.

                                      

 
                                 

                                 


For those with a sweet tooth Sweet & Pretty provided a pink candy buffet and jam jar wedding favours with stunning florals provided by artisan florist Adele Brown from Tin Can Floral

 
                                   

                                   



Bake My Cake also had a beautiful stand. They had borrowed sequin linen from the Sequin Collection from Pudding Bridge and The Little Wedding Helper. Chocolate Delores uses chocolate to create cakes that are works of art as shown below. They really do taste as good as they look too.
