Directory Showcase: Natural Design, A Alicia Wedding Accessories and Cariad Canvas

Charlie

It is really lovely to be able to share, in more detail, some of the great businesses you can find on The Natural Wedding Company directory. Wedding planning is tough enough, but if you care about doing things more naturally, eco-friendly, or ethically it makes it all the more challenging.

When I first started out to create The Natural Wedding Company, back in 2005, there were hardly any businesses that could help you create this kind of wedding – now it is very different and I’m proud to have some of the best all in one place for you. You can read more about the businesses you can find in the directory (take a look around the different categories found in the luggage tag at the top of the website) in the Directory Showcase.

Ann-Marie from Natural Design handcrafts a range of beautiful wedding favours, decorations and stationery that are eco-friendly and ethically produced. Like her beautiful flowers and petals that are made from Saa paper that comes from a natural and sustainable tree bark. Their paper rose petals have featured in films such as Alexander and Harry Potter. Visit the directory for a full list of atural wedding decorations.

A Alicia Handmade Wedding Accessories are made from ethically produced and vintage fabrics and finds. Anna Alicia makes a beautiful range of unique, eco-friendly accessories for your wedding, specialising in vintage ribbon and lace garters. Also within the range are ring pillows, fabric buttonholes, clutch bags and headbands. Visit the directory for a full list of vintage and eco-friendly wedding accessories.

Holly and Dean’s village fete wedding with a coconut shy and Morris Men

Charlie

Village fete wedding with Morris Men

This beautiful wedding photographed by Dawn Potter was inspired by the nostalgia of village fetes, and is full of fun and games for the many children who came – something I think too often gets over-looked. Holly crafted such a colorful and fun wedding that really went that extra mile for her guests.

Holly and Dean got married in the picturesque village of Loders in Dorset, with the ceremony in the village church and the reception just down the road.

The church was decorated with pretty country style flowers and the order of service is one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen – isn’t it stunning, like a page out of a fairytale…

Lots of their products are sourced ethically or eco-friendly, so a perfect match for the directory.

I thought I’d share some of my favourite products from their wonderful website…

Allie and Tom’s handmade 1930’s inspired country wedding ~ part two

1930s inspired country wedding (part two)

If you missed yesterday’s part one of Allie and Tom’s handmade 1930’s inspired country wedding be sure to read it first – it’s full of beautiful details and photos of their ceremony and how they got Allie’s parents field ready for their wedding. So without further ado, after their ceremony, Allie and Tom had some photos taken whilst dodging the rain showers – what a beautiful vintage car.

>> View Allie and Tom’s 1930s inspired country wedding (part one) here <<

Then everyone headed back to Allie’s parents field where they had Pimms in the marquee, followed by an afternoon tea of cakes, scones and sandwiches, all made by her mum’s friends.

Afternoon tea was served on vintage crockery collected over the year by Allie and her mum. I spent a lot of time the day before the wedding selecting all the crockery and it really did look as I imagined it.

Natural handmade mini soap wedding favours

Charlie

Now that looks almost good enough to eat…

These delightful little foil wrapped goodies are in fact handmade soaps and bath melts, made Emily Lucas who runs Green Spirit from her home in Oxfordshire. I’m a huge supporter of small businesses run by creative individuals, and on top of that Emily has a committment to sourcing eco-friendly ingredients and packaging.

The adorable wedding favours are handcrafted from vegan ingredients and natural essential oils – each one is made to order and wrapped in a tiny square of foil (available in a range of colours). Not only can you choose the colour of the foil to match your colour scheme, but Emily also lets you choose your own fragrance.
