Velvet Wedding: Create Your Own

The launch of our new website www.velvetwedding.co.uk has made all of us here at Velvet realise how much we LOVE weddings, civil partnerships, anniversaries, tea parties….. well any excuse to celebrate and decorate in style!

From traditional and vintage tastes to modern affairs and exotic colourful and quirky styles we feel it is always important to stay true to what feels right for you for your special day. Our wedding team have been feeling inspired and in true Velvet style have been creating some extravagantly beautiful displays for our stores, we thought this one by Karen would translate well as a beautiful wedding display piece……..
