Are you on the search for pretty and unusual accessories? Then i have the perfect person to introduce to you today, the fabulous Sarah from Britten Bags. Sarah designs the most exquisite handbags and has now moved into creating stunning wedding accessories…. i am lusting over that fan above…. wow! Take it away Sarah….

{w} Hi Sarah, could you firstly tell {www} readers a little bit about you?

Britten is my little business, an online wedding accessories boutique. I design and make vintage inspired goodies from peacock feather fans to hair combs to buttonholes. I believe you should only own things you want to cherish forever and hate the idea of mass produced items.

{w} What do you love/dislike about your job?

One of my favourite things about Britten is when I get to work with brides/ grooms to create a custom accessory totally unique to them. There is nothing I dislike about making wedding accessories.

{w} How did you get into fashion and into the wedding industry?

I studied accessory design at London College of Fashion but only got into Wedding accessories last year through my own wedding. Our theme was 1920s so we included lots of peacock feathers. I started off thinking about designing a bouquet with flowers and feathers but decided I didn’t want something such a big part of the day to die so quickly. I designed ‘bouquet’ accessories (for me and my beautiful ladies) that would last forever. I had so many lovely comments about our feather fans that I decided to add them to my boutique. Since then I have fallen in love with all things wedding and want to focus on bridal accessories.

{w} What do you aim to achieve for your clients?

I want my brides and grooms to end up with accessories that they will not only love on their wedding day but that they will cherish forever and want to pass on to their children.

{w} What style is your work?

Britten is about glamorous, elegant and vintage style accessories.

{w} Could you tell us some information about your prices?

Britten’s prices currently range from £15 for a pearl garter to £88 for a feather fan. I add new products all the time.

{w} Do you have any tips for couples in selecting their suppliers?

Make sure your suppliers make you feel that your day is the most important wedding they have ever worked on!

{w] Any other tips on preparing for a wedding?

You don’t always have to focus your efforts on the dress. I’m an accessory girl (as you may have guessed!) so I decided what accessories I wanted and then found the dress and shoes to match.

{w} How can we get in touch with you?

You can email me on sarah@britten-bags.co.uk I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks so much Sarah, it’s been great getting to know you and your fabulous company even more :-) Do check out Sarah’s amazing site and get browsing ;-) xoxo
