One of my favourite recent finds is Emmaline Bride. The site is an amazing marketplace, showcasing beautiful handmade products for especially for brides.
Emmaline Bride is the handmade community where brides + artists can collaborate to create one-of-a-kind, customized items for weddings.
Site creator, Emma, says…”When I planned my wedding, I discovered so many talented artists who created amazing handmade wedding items. I sought to create a resource for brides who love handmade to easily locate the best bridal couture and connect with artists… and Emmaline Bride was born!”
Emma couldn’t possibly choose her favourites from the site to show off here as she adores all the artists she promotes on the site, so these are random picks
Enjoy! And head over to Emmaline Bride to see sooo many more beautiful items for sale.
I *love* this bridal sash
Handmade sash with pearls and silk
This beautiful clutch also serves as a cute “something blue”
Silk dupioni ring bearer pillow
Fabric and tulle flower bouquets
Peacock feather garter – have have had so many brides comment on how lovely this is!
Head over to Emmaline Bride to find something beautiful handmade. Let me know if you find something to share with fellow Swoonies.
So thrilled to be able to showcase the beautiful work of Angela Higgins, a Perth based wedding and portrait photographer.
Angela says…
Neil and Elise’s wedding was very simplistic. The colours were muted, the details minimal but their images are some of my favourite because they are uncluttered and allow their affection to shine through.
It is a good example of how a wedding doesn’t have to have a colour theme or be over planned in the details for it to be beautiful and memorable.
Thanks so much Angela, for allowing Swoon to show off this beautiful wedding coverage
