SOMETHING BORROWED... Sustainability is important to my partner and me. How can I find a sustainable wedding dress? There are many reasons why you should hire your dream wedding dress, not purchase it. You buy it - and only wear it once. Today, sustainability and budget are important, making renting a wedding dress the perfect eco-friendly alternative. The fashion industry already has an enormous impact on the environment. With over 3,000 litres of water used to make a single t-shirt, you can only imagine the impact an entire wedding dress has. Each wedding dress rental reduces the demand for raw materials, lowers energy consumption and cuts down on waste, helping to minimize the fashion industry’s carbon footprint. So, why not rent your wedding dress? We have a selection of beautiful gowns to suit every bride’s style to make sure your look is one of a kind, and you feel special and beautiful, whilst saving money and the environment. Alyson Scrivener | Something Borrowed Bridal www.somethingborrowedbridal.co.uk PERFECT PRESERVATION I’ve heard about bouquet preservation following the wedding day. What are my options? Don’t throw it, preserve it! Creating your own piece of floral preservation artwork is such a beautiful way to encapsulate all the memories of your wedding, long after the day has passed. Using the most eco-friendly process, we’ll need to put your flowers into the preservation process as quickly as possible. Within a few weeks we will invite you to a design meeting where you’ll be able to choose your handmade locally sourced bespoke frame, colours and finalise how you’d like your flowers placed. A sentimental keepsake that will stand the test of time, that can be wall mounted or placed for you to admire.

Do you want a flawless finish that has the wow factor? This cake here had exactly that! The couple had the height and unique elements in this cake as they only had one tier of real cake, the rest was fake. Can you tell? Fondant finish cakes look beautiful and they have gorgeous sharp edges. You can add your colours to a type of cake like this to make it fit in with your wedding perfectly. The options are endless!
