Written by Helen-Louise Dudney

Autumn is Here, and So is The Un-Wedding Show London!

Autumn has officially arrived, and we couldn’t be more excited. The leaves are changing, there’s a crispness in the air, and we can finally say it… The Un-Wedding Show London is just around the corner! 🎉

Mark your calendars for 19th + 20th October 2024 because we’re taking over the stunning Kachette on Old Street for two days of wedding magic! This isn’t just any wedding show; it’s your go-to wedding planning party - a celebration of modern, creative, and totally non-traditional wedding vibes, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

What Makes The Un-Wedding Show So Special?

There’s nothing quite like bringing together couples with the right suppliers, and this year’s lineup is next-level incredible. Our London line-up is packed with creative, unique, and passionate small businesses that “get” modern couples and throuples who want something more than just a cookie-cutter wedding.

Imagine stepping into Kachette, where the industrial charm of Old Street blends perfectly with the energy of creativity buzzing all around. You’ll be greeted by a selection of awesome suppliers who are not only ready to inspire you but also understand what it means to make your wedding reflect you. Forget the pressures of having the "perfect" wedding or feeling like you need to tick off a list of clichés. This is your day, your way - and we’re here to make sure it happens.

A Sneak Peek: Cool & Creative from Our Suppliers ✨

I Just Called To Say…

We’re SO excited to welcome back one of the coolest Book of Love babes, Ben with the ultimate alternative to the traditional guest book: the ‘I Just Called to Say...’ audio guest book! This innovative twist brings a whole new vibe to your wedding. Instead of squinting at scribbled notes in an old book, imagine picking up the phone and hearing your guests’ heartfelt, hilarious, and maybe even slightly tipsy messages! It’s not just more fun - it’s a memory you can relive over and over again. And let’s talk about aesthetics: these novelty phones are cool AF and will add serious style points to your décor. Picture the epic photo ops your guests will have, and the hardest decision will be which phone fits your vibe! Whether you go for the acid smiley, big mouth or nostalgic hamburger (who didn’t want one of those), you’re guaranteed endless laughter, love, and nostalgia when you play back those unforgettable messages. If you can’t decide which one to go for, stop by and have a chat with Ben.

Even looking at the I Just Called to Say... acid smiley audio guest book makes you smile!
