Brighton Bridal Boot Fayre 2

Well, finally - here a few snaps courtesy of the gorgeous Andrew JR Squires Photography of the Brighton Bridal Boot Fayre 2! What a day it was... We were blessed with beautiful weather which meant that people came out in their droves to see us. We were overwhelmed with the amount of people who joined us for the day - so many in fact that we had to stop people coming in at one point - sorry about that guys, we'll make sure we stagger it next time!  

There was an abundance of dresses, shoes, accessories, table decs and nick nacks - loads of stuff got snapped up.

The day really wouldn't have been possible without our gorgeous brides and grooms who turned out with all their beautiful wedding gear and of course the wonderful businesses who held tie it all together - thanks guys!.

And we also had an army of helpers - Kate, Di, James, Andy, Rachel, Lucie and Sophie without whom the day would have fallen apart! We hope you enjoyed the free tea and coffee and of course the super duper cakes which we spent hours baking ;)

We're hoping to keep growing the boot fayre - so next time we'll have even more brides and grooms selling their pre-loved wedding bits and bobs... so watch this space!

We look forward to seeing you there!

Beautiful Ellis Bridal Gown for sale

Fariba and her gorgeous hubby came along to the Brighton Bridal boot Fayre on Saturday with some of their pre-loved things from their gorgeous wedding. Fariba's stunning Ellis Bridal Gown is available to buy for just £400!! It's a size twelve and has been altered slightly with the tulle cap sleeve, but these can easily be removed if preferred. The dress needs to be dry cleaned - but this is reflected in the price. The original RRP is £1250. If you are interested in finding out more then contact Fariba directly: Faribasamandi@yahoo.co.uk

Thank you!

A huge thank you to everyone that came along to and helped to make the Brighton Bridal Boot Fayre a success. Lots of our brides were able to sell the majority of their stuff on to other brides and grooms to be for their big days!

We are hoping to grow the fayre over time, but of course it can only be a success with brides and grooms selling on their second hand bits and bobs. So any one who is getting married in the next few months who would be interested in having a table at the next boot fayre, please get in touch!

Love Charlie and Emily xx

Tom & Leilas Fiesta Wedding Goodies

Less than a week to go!

It's been all systems go this week, with just a few days left before the big day!
We've been featured in Preston Pages, Latest 7 and Sussex Life and loads of people are talking about us on Facebook - we're over 200 likes now :) The lovely Andrea Fox has said she'll give us a mention on the Juice Breakfast Show plus we've had loads of support from the lovely businesses we met at the Doily Days/Sussex Love Bug Wedding Networking evening last week. If i can figure it out I'll post a few of the hilarious pix!
Emily and I are excited about cooking up some tasty treats for the cafe ( with the help of Em's lovely mum!)
So, tell your friends and don't forget it's free tea and coffee!
See you at Friend's Meeting House at 12 on Saturday.

Sussex Life

Today is one of those days when I appreciate just how lucky I am to live in Brighton. The sun was shining, people were happy and it felt as though we've left the winter behind and spring has sprug. I had a day off from 'the day job' today and after enjoying a lovely relaxing coffee, soaking up some rays with my hubby, I went on a missssion around town dropping off flyers and chatting to people who are getting married - generally spreading the love and the word, about BBBF2!
After arriving home I was chuffed to see we'd recieved a lovely email from Ruth at Susex Life magazine, who has kindly featured an article about our event on their website. Thanks Ruth!

We're hoping that loads of you are going to be coming along to the Brighton Bridal Boot Fayre on the 10th March. It's crept up really quickly and I didn't realise until yesterday quite how close it was!
All me and Emily need to do is bake cakes. It's a hard life.... ;)
