UK Wedding Fayres — What Would You Make of Them?

By Claire

Wed­ding fayres — love ‘em or hate ‘em, they are as vital as wed­ding mag­a­zines to the UK wed­ding indus­try. A great place to meet essen­tial wed­ding sup­pli­ers in per­son, and a source of inspi­ra­tion to cou­ples everywhere.

Our UK wed­ding fayres need a good shake-up, don’t they?

There are bad wed­ding fayres out there. (Often the ones who spell ‘fayre’ with a y. As lovely bride Tanya once told me, it’s not even a real old-fashioned word. I’m using it in a slightly ironic way)

I fear there are many local fayres (yes, they’ll spell it with a y) which don’t really push the boat out in terms of ideas and inspi­ra­tion for cou­ples. I’d even go so far as to say they can be horrifying.

You know what I mean, don’t you…

Would you change UK wed­ding fayres?

My ques­tion is, if you could grab wed­ding fayres by the scruff of the neck, turn them upside down and shake them up a bit, what would you do? What would you change? How can we make wed­ding fairs a bit more 21st century?!
