Custom Designed Bridal Garters

I love when brides (or bridesmaids) email me loving my style and would like me to design a custom garter for their wedding! Its so much fun and interesting to see what clients like to include in their wedding. Recently ive had two customs orders from different ends of the design scale. One was a local bride wnating a Batman garter to satifiy her 'geeky' side and to give her husband a giggle. She wanted it to still be girly and eklegant though. This is what i designed for her and she loves it! I even made the Batman logo pendent our of a large black/ metal effect bead with diamontes stuck on it- very bling bling!

Another custom order i just completed was a peacock garter incorporating a peacock feather a vintage style brooch and navy blue satin (the colour of the bridesmaid dresses). It turned out very elegant


My custom design orders start at USD$30 for a complete set plus shipping costs. To enquiry please email me with your colours, ideas, any pictures of styles you have at nataliebriggs@live.com.au

Dont be traditional if you dont want to be


Dont feel you have to go the tradtional way when planning your wedding! Think outside the box when it comes to venues, your dress, the food you serve, the service you have. Even the invitations you send out. Not only can alternate weddings be a lot cheaper beacuse your not going done the usual route for suppliers and vendors, but it can also make the day a whole lot more rememberable!
