HANDMADE IN ESSEX 57 Who? Studio Artemis Where? Leigh on Sea Why? “Studio Artemis is a bridal bouquet preservation company,” explains owner Natasha Heasman-Langley. “I create contemporary artwork from your bouquet, and am also able to add photographs or other extras such as buttonholes or flower crowns. Every piece I create is made by hand, from the initial drying or pressing process to the layout of your flowers, and I will work with you to ensure the final piece is personalised from mount to frame. My style is very contemporary compared to other bridal bouquet preservation artists, as I enjoy making the artwork look modern – and deconstructing the bouquet so you can really enjoy every detail.” www.instagram.com/thisisstudioartemis Who? Victoria Charles Headpieces Where? Margaretting Why? “We produce seasonal ready-to-wear millinery collections along with a bespoke bridal service which operates from our Essex studio,” says Victoria Carson. “Creating unique, sophisticated, stylish headwear for the whole wedding party and/or guests, each hat and headpiece is handmade to an exceptionally high standard with strict attention to detail, all the while using the finest materials available.
