The Personal Wedding Fair at Homemade London, Sunday April 10th….

Here's something interesting for the DIY Brides out there. As the capital prepares for a lavish Royal Wedding, Homemade London is hosting a unique wedding event for people who want to create an intimate wedding experience; celebrating individuality, creativity and elegance.

Founded in summer 2010, Homemade London specialises in luxurious and indulgent creative experiences, workshops and parties. It brings together London’s most stylish designers and crafts people, to produce a range of tailored workshops in which they’ll share their secrets, working with the highest quality materials, fabrics and ingredients. At the end of every class, customers will have made something they will want to keep forever or give to someone special. Classes are social experiences, in which customers enjoy a glass of wine and light supper or afternoon tea as they work. Homemade London also hosts London's original sewing cafe and is available for private hire as a creative space.

This latest event, the 'Personal Wedding Fair', takes place on Sunday 10 April, between 10.30am and 4.30pm, at The Marylebone Craft Salon and will comprise a day of masterclasses and craft workshops led by some of London’s leading creative talents.  This will include a planner, photographer, stylist, florist and Homemade London’s team of designer-makers – customers will learn how to bring their ideas to life, incorporating spectacular personal details into every aspect of the big day while keeping costs under control.

Homemade London Director Nicola Barron explains:

"This will be completely different to other wedding fairs, which are essentially about selling the services of suppliers involved – the Personal Wedding Fair is about empowering people with the knowledge and confidence to do-it-themselves in a stylish way.

Guests at a wedding should leave feeling like they know the couple just that bit better from being there and we’ll be helping people achieve this…"
