49 ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE I f you’re looking for some wedspiration with a twist, you need look no further. Multi-award-winning wedding stylist Not Your Average I Do brings back its far-from- average festival-style wedding fair, Not Your Average WedFest, on 22 September. This wedding showcase will be packed full of fabulous, one-of-a-kind suppliers from the South East, bringing you the Coachella Festival of the wedding planning scene. THE VIBE Rocking with live music throughout the day, there’ll be silent and not-so-silent discos, street performers and magicians to keep you entertained. Plus, there’s something to keep the kids entertained in the magical children’s corner, with music, glitter, unicorns, bouncy castles and much more. Delicious delights from Gastro Catering can be enjoyed alongside street food vans, wood-fired pizza, home-cooked cakes and local ice cream served from a vintage ice cream van. Fancy a tipple to wash that all down? There’ll be plenty of choice, from a glass of fizz, cocktails and beers to a quintessentially English cup of tea. NEW FOR 2019 Don’t miss the fabulous catwalk, where designers will be showcasing the newest boho and uber-cool wedding wear. What’s more, workshops on everything you need to know about wedding planning will be running throughout the day. From venue styling and flower arranging to calligraphy, it’s all covered! If you’re concerned about your W-day’s impact on our planet, head over to the Eco Village. It’s all here for a guilt-free wedding: bamboo plates and cutlery, eco-friendly wedding favours, flowers and centrepieces, body glitter and accessories. BE A VIP Love a festival but more of a glamper than a camper? Then the VIP pass is for you. Sip on a glass of bubbly as you skip the queues to be whisked to Beautiful World Tents’ VIP tipi. Here you’ll enjoy exclusive access to suppliers, wedding wear designers, make-up artists and hair trials, with a delicious lunch, priority access to the workshops and a goodie bag with money-off vouchers to take home.
