Morning All! Tuesday already! And time to get your diaries, for here is one for all you Brides planning a wedding who want to incorporate some aspect of the 'era inspired' into your big day.
The Vintage Chic Wedding Fair was founded last year by Sisters Cathy & Susie, who held their first fair in their home-town of Worcester. Such a triumph was the fair that a second event was planned for January 2011 in Birmingham. Sell-out success followed and as a result, two new events have been planend to take place this October and November, in Birmingham and Derbyshire respectively.
Having both got married themselves in the past five years and having both researched extensively for their own weddings when it came to suppliers, Cathy and Susie felt that there was a need for wedding fairs with a little more flair than the usual offering - something that would showcase the fusion of vintage and glamour with a little modern twist. Now I'm liking the sound of that already...
"The aim of the The Vintage Chic Wedding Fair is for Brides to be wowed by the creativity and attention to detail each and every exhibitor puts into their work and to come away fully inspired for their big day. Our events attract a high calibre of exhibitors, their flair and talent will help brides to create a truly stylish vintage chic wedding day..."

"A few of the exhibitors who will be joining us in October and November include Simply Chic {guestbooks, favours, decor etc} Lovely & Vintage, Meeni, The Barbers and Theresa Furey photography. The events are also bought to life by amazingly talented vintage wedding singer Simon Partridge, with lashings of tea and cake also available in a beautifully styled vintage tea parlour..."
