Im getting married on Halloween and so have hunted high and low for some quirky gothic/glam bits and pieces. We also have a little Minecraft/gaming/geeky twist so Angelques was right up our street!
It has to be SuzannaMDesigns – bespoke lace wedding dress heaven 🙂
I think the very first shop I ever “loved” on Etsy was Elizabeth Dye (The English Department) years ago! Their designs are so romantic.
Has to be: Whimsical Weddings by The Quirky Corn Crib

She makes unique cake toppers that are a little out of the ordinary. We’ve already ordered ours – two narwhals crossing horns (our pet name for each other… it’s a long story)
My favourite etsy shop (at the moment!) is InOurStar, as my engagement ring came from them! It’s a simple morganite solitaire which I couldn’t find in the UK or in shops but Etsy came up trumps. It arrived on Friday and I ❤️ it!
Gibson Bespoke Desgins – The Old Hollywood style sequin dresses are AMAZING!
Truvelle makes the most gorgeous wedding dresses, especially love the little dip-dyed lace number!

I am looking forward to seeing Comeuppance don’t think the photos do the amazing paper creations justice at all.
My favourite etsy shop isn’t a wedding related one, but it is called ‘wee little stiches’ and it has the most amazing collection of cross stitch patterns that appeal to comic book nerds and lovers of other assorted geekery! Given that my comic book loving fiancé, and cross stitching, are two of my biggest loves, their store is a match made in heaven!
My favourite shop is The Glass Lass! Beautiful sparkly, glittery glasses and other gorgeous creationsHey, I found this really awesome Etsy shop at https://www.etsy.com/shop/The Glass lassie x
