The Un-Wedding Show is back in Shoreditch on the 26th + 27th of February 2022!

That’s right! The UK’s favourite wedding fair for non-traditional couples is back on the 26th and 27th of February at one of our favourite East London, alternative wedding venues, Shoreditch Studios!

Since 2019, The Un-Wedding Show has been a chance to bring our famous Book Of Love directory to life in unique and interesting event spaces across the UK. It’s a one-stop-shop for newly engaged, modern couples to be inspired, to meet and book their dream wedding suppliers (and take advantage of all the exclusive offers), and who knows, maybe even secure the venue… if you haven’t already, cos we guarantee you’re gonna love it as it’s the perfect space for your un-wedding!

But not only that, The Un-Wedding show was born to cater for modern couples who can’t think of anything worse than attending one of those big, often soulless wedding exhibitions… or, the boring little local ones where inspiration will be kept to an absolute minimum!

The Un-Wedding Show is notoriously friendly with a party vibes, putting the fun back into your wedding planning cos that’s how it should be! Think music, cocktails, and good people.

Come along with your lover and or, your best pals, mammas, pappas, kiddies or doggies and soak up the atmosphere!

What to expect at The Un-Wedding Show?

The thing that makes The Un-Wedding Show stand out from other wedding fairs is that all of our suppliers have been hand-picked especially for our attendees.

Our venues tend to be quite intimate so, every stall counts. You won’t find any stall holders pushing diet pills and teeth-whitening programmes at you just because they paid to have a space, just back to back independent and creative wedding suppliers showcasing their amazing wares and services.

Our suppliers always report high-volume bookings from their dream couples so we pride ourselves on being a high-connecting wedding fair for un-wedding couples and suppliers alike, apart from that one couple who, out of over 5000 attendees in the last 3 years emailed to say that they ‘weren’t inspired enough’ …. eye roll forever.

Come with an open mind, an open heart and a smile on your face and you will have a great time!

Who will be exhibiting at The Un-Wedding Show?

As always, we have a fantastic line up of the UK’s coolest independent wedding suppliers who’ve all been handpicked just for you!

It’s important to mention that the majority of these suppliers have been waiting patiently to showcase you you since 2020 when our beloved events were cancelled along with the majority of their business and main income streams. They need and deserve your support more than ever and we can’t wait for you to meet them!

Inclusivity and accessibility at The Un-Wedding Show.

Our events and suppliers are all LGBTQ+ inclusive and we pride ourselves on being friendly and fun! If this doesn't sound like something you can get on board with then please don't come.

A note re accessibility: Shoreditch Studios has ground floor access so is accessible for wheelchair users. The venue also has one wheelchair-accessible toilet facility in Studio 2. There will be a small number of vendors (4 max) located in the mezzanine which can only be accessed via a spiral staircase. Attendees will be made aware of which vendors are upstairs so that anyone who is unable to access them will be able to speak to a representative of the company if they are interested in finding out more about that business.
