DECADENCE VINTAGE FAIRS
 
As our vintage bridal fairs are so hugely popular we will be introducing a vintage bridal section to our regular Frock Around The Clock events, starting next month when we visit Malone House in Belfast on Sunday 4th November for our 4th Birthday event.

Vintage-loving brides will now find a small selection of vintage dealers and designers specialising in vintage-themed wedding services at FROCK AROUND THE CLOCK, and we are delighted that the very talented and very lovely Grace of Grace and Saviour will be back with us, showcasing her wedding concierge, crafting, sourcing and hire service. She really does have the magic touch when it comes to bringing your ideas for the perfect wedding to life, no matter what they may be!

Here are just a few of our favourite images (sourced from the Grace & Saviour Facebook page) of some of her most recent work.
 
 
We fell in love with Strombolitwo when they appeared at our vintage fair in Lisburn last month so we are delighted that they will be back with us again at FROCK AROUND THE CLOCK on 4th November at Malone House in Belfast.

Helen Perry, the design talent behind the Strombolitwo label creates exclusive and individual fashion accessories from upcycled kimono silks. Each piece is unique with many of the silk pieces used featuring hand painted traditional Japanese prints.
You can shop with Strombolito on Etsy and follow on Facebook, but come on down to FROCK AROUND THE CLOCK on 4th November  to get your hands on some of their beautiful and unique gifts and occasion wear.

If you are considering a unique alternative to the usual wedding ring then John Bird from Loving Spoonful has the answer with his beautiful rings recycled from antique silver spoons. I love this rare Victorian solid silver spoon ring, dated 1892, with beautiful shamrock detail. John had it cast in silver 925 so that others could enjoy it too. Covered with the most stunning engraving of shamrocks the ring comes in the elegant buckle style or spiral design and has a highly polished finish.
Loving Spoonful will be appearing at the Decadence Vintage Bridal Fair on Sunday 5th August.
