Hemswell Court Wedding Fayre

Hemswell Court in in North Lincolnshire and used to be an old Officer's Mess and was built in the 1930's. The venue isn't normally open to the public, and it only available to hire for weddings and conferences, so you have the whole run of the gorgeous antique filled rooms and colourful gardens.
Extra Special Touch was flattered to be invited to this exclusive wedding fayre on the 15th May, and our table had a fabulous location in front of the fireplace that you can see if this photo.  (Many thanks to http://aurorastudio.co.uk/blog/?p=80 where I have used this photo from ).
This is a new wedding hair accessory / fascinator I have been working on, and extra large embroidered Rose, with a vintage 1930's Pearl and diamante button in the centre.... this style can be made in your own colour choice, and I'm going to make myself a pink one for a wedding I'm going to in the summer.
Also, the first time my new bridal clasp bags have been shown, and everyone loved them! Made from vintage hand embroidered textiles, lined with silk fabric and an antique style bag clasp... not only a gorgeous vintage bag... but doubles up as your "something old"!!
And another new product! Personalised embroidered chair sash... can be embroidered with any wording in any colour to match your wedding theme. Check out our website for more information.
The beautiful perfume bottles were loaned for our dressing table display from Bernadette from Lincolnshire Lanterns, than you so much...they added to our display perfectly.
For more information on any of our vintage inspired wedding accessories and fascinators, have a look at our website and Folksy Shop

Wedding Fayre at the gorgeous Woodborough Hall

We had a wonderful day out at Woodborough Hall wedding fayre in April. The weather was sunny and hot and luckily, we were by the open doors in the garden room and could catch a few rays while we were working!
Lots of lovely brides to be, Mum's, bridesmaid and friends tried on our hats... and I took a few snaps to show you... don't they look fab!
The gray suited this lovely lady beautifully.
We were really pleased with our display, which had it's first showing at Woodborough Hall. The hat stands are large candle sticks!
I painted the mirror this week with crackle paint... and it has a lovely aged, vintage feel.
White embroidered monogram on white cotton napkins looks so vintage! Many thanks to Cakes Etcetera for the display cupcakes :)
The view from our little corner of the garden room....
Woodborough Hall is close to my heart, as I got married there in 2008.... the weather was gorgeous that day to!
