Eclectic Wedding Extravaganza, 4th November, Birmingham ~ It’s all about ‘EWE’!

What happens when three slightly mad wedding
suppliers come together? They hatch a crazy plan to bring a completely different kind of wedding fair to the masses, that's what. And I'm pretty sure some of my readers will partial to their bonkers-yet-brilliant idea.

When Sassy (Assassynation), Jo (The Couture
Company
) and Vikki (Liliia) got nattering over a glass of wine (standard) one evening, they decided  that they would put on an 'Eclectic Wedding Extravaganza', with a truly eclectic mix
of brilliantly talented suppliers.

“We
want to put on an amazing
wedding extravaganza (aka 'fair') that would be
exciting for both the suppliers and  couples alike, so we hatched a plan
 “A-team” style (Hannibal Smith would be proud).

The
idea is that we want people to shake off the shackles of what is considered
‘normal’ or ‘traditional’ and to take their own personalities and loves and
 stamp them on their weddings ,so we have picked suppliers who can help
ewe do that!"

Sassi, Jo and Vikki assure me this is no ordinary wedding show…

"The suppliers, aka, the 'Baad Ass Mother Flockers'
have been chosen and invited based on their personalities, the quality of their
end product and the fact that they offer something unique."

"White linen
covered trestle tables are discouraged and hard sells are banished, we want you
to come along, have a drink and a good old natter to the Mother Flockers that
catch your eye. These Mo Flo’s are being challenged to create stands that
are totally unique and interactive."

"We will have a themed café so you can have a drink and
something to eat as well as a wedding dress walkabout to showcase some of the
gorgeous frocks.  There will also be
a fun-tastic treasure hunt where answers to clues can be found on the Mo Flo’s
stands.  We want EWE to get
involved, pick stuff up, take a good look, really check out the Mo Flo’s and
ask them tons of questions as they are all a super friendly bunch.

We have also teamed up with new magazine publication, 'Unique Bride', as we just had to have
such a creative team there especially as they are the only unique wedding
magazine available on the high-street!"

"One thing we can assure you of is that it will be a fun day
out, with tons of giveaways, lots to learn and see and not one bit like a
‘normal’ wedding fair!

Why not see who’s going to be there? Take a nose round our
site
;  more suppliers will be added over the coming month."
