Looking for a wedding that breaks the rules? The Un-Wedding Show London was back at Kachette on 22nd + 23rd February and it was bursting at the seams with modern wedding inspo, indie suppliers, and all TE BEST vibes! If you weren’t there, seriously, where WERE you?! Kachette is one of London's coolest, modern wedding venues and it was buzzing with all the cool, creative, non-traditional wedding inspo you could imagine.

A Unique Wedding Fair at Kachette, Old Street
Let’s talk about the venue for a sec. Kachette? Absolute perfection.
It’s this old Victorian train station ticket hall turned ultra-cool event space, with exposed brick, moody lighting, and all the indie wedding magic you could ever want. You walk in, and boom – instant atmosphere! A perfect space for an Un-Wedding because it transforms beautifully from your day-to-night celebration. It's also the perfect the venue for our unique wedding fair because it's not too big, and not too small which means the vibe is always electric!
I just called to say… the alternative audio guest book
So, what Happened at The Un-Wedding Show London?
Well, we're famed for only showcasing THE BEST alternative wedding suppliers in the UK! I mean, we’re talking about some of the coolest indie wedding businesses out there. There were jaw-dropping cakes from The Great British Bake Off's Amelia Le Bruin aka The Cake Hun London (and not just good lookin' but DELICIOUS), custom accessories for the whole wedding crew from Francis + Louise, and ethical wedding rings from Daniel Darby Jewellery that make me wanna do it all over again... getting married that is. Not to mention Powder Blue Artistry, our treasured Beauty Editor of MNT Magazine, who was there making everyone feel like an absolute QUEEN with her flawless makeup advice.
As always, alternative audio guest book 'I just called to say… went down a storm with our modern couples who want to inject some personality into their big day, and give their guests a fun form of entertainment.

Event Styling Inspiration

OMG, Bee Davies Illustration absolutely painted the town red with her styling! She took the brief ‘lipstick in the mirror, 80s vibes’ and RAN with it. Think bold, glam, and totally unapologetic décor – the kind of styling that makes you want to go and live your best 80s Madonna life. Bee's lipstcik scrawls of The Un-Wedding's famous slogans' gave the event a rebellious energy, and you know we LOVE to rebel!
