Virtual Wedding Fayres… I bet you’re seeing them pop up everywhere. But what are they? How does it all work? Why are they so popular?
We’re currently in the middle of a global pandemic. Whilst we usually love hosting popular Wedding Fayres all over the North West of England and beyond, the reality is that we’re temporarily unable to do this.
So, we formulated the idea of a virtual Wedding Fayre. This inspiration came from our drive to continue connecting suppliers with actively planning couples.
Our aim is to mimic exactly what would usually bring couples to a Wedding Fayre, and try to adapt it so it was something that we could make happen online.
The number one reason people visit wedding exhibitions is to discover and book suppliers for their wedding day. People also love live music, beautiful catwalk shows and plenty more entertainment.
So, we decided to create a dedicated Facebook group where all of this could happen.
What are the benefits for wedding suppliers?
This online platform provides wedding specialists with a dedicated area to introduce their services and make connections with couples. It’s actually really simple!
Our online Wedding Fayres have proven to be a huge success with many suppliers receiving bookings as a result. Suppliers have also noticed a huge increase in their social media following.
Not only do these online events expose wedding specialists to a brand new catalogue of ready-to-book brides & grooms, but they’re also a proven method to keep providing fresh content for these couples.
New members are continuously joining the Virtual Wedding Fayre, and we’re working extremely hard to ensure plenty of new faces are discovering the group.
Why do Brides & Grooms love it?
Brides & Grooms absolutely adore these events because they’re continuing to see fresh content from specialists and are introduced to new faces – something that’s very tricky during these current circumstances!
Typically, suppliers would host an exclusive special offer or discount for couples at a Wedding Fayre – another reason why Brides & Grooms love them so much! Again, we wanted this amazing opportunity to be available online so we host all sorts of giveaways, competitions and suppliers have been incredibly generous in helping couples with a small incentive.
We strive to continue hosting these online Wedding Fayres until we can begin hosting our ‘normal’ exhibitions again.
Join the group and have a mooch around!

We’ve Had a Refresh!
You know that old saying “new year, new me”? Well, ahead of the fast approaching 2025, we’ve decided to switch some things up around here and add a dash more sparkle into Bouquet and Bells.
An Alternative Church Wedding with Unique Outfits
This shoot was inspired wholly by the vastness and beauty of the venue as well as the unitarians inspiring ethos: Ullet Road Unitarian Church. We chose a beautiful day for the shoot, meaning the light flooding into the building and outside of the building was beautiful. We had a selection of dresses to change into for different parts of the church, and we utilised the late in different rooms and at different windows, as well as the doors for the iconic confetti shots.
Top Tips for Dealing With Wedding Jitters
Your wedding is a magical day which will stay with you forever. However, it’s unquestionable that with a tag like that, there’s also going to be an element of pressure you need to manage. 84% of brides report feeling some sort of stress about their big day. And while a lot of this comes hand-in-hand with planning a large event, it’s unquestionable that standing in front of anyone as the “star of the show” is going to get the nerves jangling.
