Vintage Wedding Fair - Chiswick Hall

I attended the Vintage Wedding Fair at the Chiswick Town Hall in London with The Style PA a while ago now and I've been meaning to blog about it. I'm getting rather excited about our wedding, we've got a while to wait yet (until next summer!) but it has given us lots of time to prepare and save our pennies! I want to make as much as I can myself and save as much money as possible... so I thought the Vintage Wedding Fair was the perfect opportunity to find some inspiration!

I absolutely love this simple and beautiful jar of flowers. I'm thinking of having flowers in teapots and chocolate hearts in teacups for the table decor at the evening venue.

There were some lovely dresses... but many were far too lovely... and therefore well out of my price range!

I don't think I want a veil. I'm more or a fascinator or headband kinda gal. I saw some gorgeous flower, lace and pearl headbands that took my fancy. But I can't start gathering accessories until I find the dress. So my search continues!

Double Dose of Polka Dots - Fascinators and Teapots!

This week's Double Dose of Polka Dots comes from one of my favourite websites, DollyDagger. They have a really good range of polka dotted items ranging from gorgeous dresses, shoes, handbags, earrings and cardigans to birthday cards, light switch covers and door stops...

Speaking of which... I adore the first dose of polka dots: a beautiful red polka dot teapot door stop - £16.99. The perfect thing to hold the door open at a tea party. It's fabric and features a little embroidered teacup and "time for tea".

Dose of polka dots number two: Blue heart polka dot fascinator - £29. This gorgeous fascinator was handmade by Lilly Lewis exclusively for DollyDagger. Perfect for hosting a very glamorous, vintage inspired, polka dotted tea party!

Double Dose of Polka Dots - Weddings!

I absolutely love weddings! Everyone has such a great time, all the ladies wear gorgeous dresses and there is yummy food, free wine, and a lot of dancing! This week's double dose of polka dots is dedicated to my friend's lovely summer wedding...

Dose number one: I wore this lovely black and white polka dot dress (from the sale in Dorothy Perkins) teamed with a pink cardigan, some pearls and a white flower in my hair.

Dose number two: Another great thing about weddings is the headwear... There are usually some beautiful hats, head bands and fascinators around. I love this polka dot head band from Ferlies Etsy shop - $14.50 (£9.60).
