THE UN-WEDDING SHOW IS BACK!
Gawwd knows it’s been a rough ride for all of the wedding industry and we personally know most about the companies within that, such as Wedding Shows, who had the double hit from functioning (or not!) as BOTH Events-based and Matrimony-based! It’s been its own fresh hell.. so we are cheerleading hard for our pals THE UN-WEDDING SHOW who are back with a bang at Shoreditch Studios this bank holiday weekend. Known to bring the party and the rebel vibes, it’s surely one not to miss for those of you who can’t wait to get wild, expressive and true to you on your big day. Some brilliant suppliers there, plus DJ sets and plenty of cocktails flowing.
We’ll hand you over to the big hearted and all round boring-wedding-disrupter Mel of the Un-Wedding now, to tell you more about it!!
The time has finally come where we can share all things weddings with you face-to-face again!
Hurrah!
It’s been a long and very patient wait for all involved…. 18 months… but who’s counting?! The Un-Wedding Show is finally back this summer with their alternative wedding fair for modern couples.
Featuring a careful curation of unique and alternative wedding suppliers from their exclusive Book Of Love directory, The Un-Wedding Show promises to bring tons of fun and inspiration to all you alternative couples planning your upcoming un-wedding.
If you hate the thought of attending a big, corporate wedding fair and are looking for something a bit more refreshing and more ‘you’, then this event is a great place to start.
The Un-Wedding Show prides itself on putting the ‘party’ into your wedding planning and has been described as a pre-party for the hen-party! Each event takes place in an intimate setting, so the electric atmosphere is tangible!
Hosted in yet another unique event space, Shoreditch Studios, is definitely one to pop on your potential wedding venue list. This hidden gem in the heart of East London is a must-see!
Why?
Because it's a blank canvas warehouse wedding venue where both your ceremony and reception can take place. With high ceilings, white cove walls and quite possibly THE BIGGEST disco ball you'll ever see! The alternative space is the perfect place to host the hive of creativity and uniqueness of un-wedding suppliers who go all out to showcase their talent and wares over the course of the weekend.
Everything you see is available to buy, book or hire for your amazing day! From giant neon signs that will light up your dance floor... thanks Vowed & Amazed, to a life-sized red telephone box that doubles up as an audio guest book for your friends to leave tipsy, heartfelt messages... YES!... you read that right, it's called The Big Red Box and you're gonna go wild for it!
It's clear that The Un-Wedding Show is selective with their exhibitors and you definitely won't be bombarded with advocates for slimming pills and teeth whitening programmes, you get enough of that on Facebook, right?!
The Un-Wedding Show has one mission, and that's to provide you with awesome inspiration so you can go forth and plan the wedding you really want... oh yeah, and to have fun whilst you are it... and to tempt you with loads of exclusive on-the-day offers too!
If that's not tempting enough, there'll be summer sunshine party vibes with live DJ sets from the incredible Hush Club Disco. This brand-new giant sequinned disco trailer will be sparkling away in the courtyard and serving up delicious cocktails cos word on the street is, it's gonna be a heatwave! If you are lucky enough to bag one of the limited number of remaining VIP tickets to the event then you'll be sipping a free glass of fizz from HSD. And yes, this giant sequinned disco trailer is also available to book for your wedding, festival, or casual Friday night get together!
Last but not least, The Un-Wedding will also be hosting their own little pop-up shop where you can grab some of the cute merch from their online shop with a cheeky lil discount!
The Un-Wedding Show takes place on 28th + 29th August @ Shoreditch Studios, 10.30am - 3.30pm and you can purchase tickets HERE! Advanced tickets are advised as entry will be more on the door!
