🌈 ALTERNATIVE. INCLUSIVE. COMPLETELY QUIRKY.
The decorations might be festive, but this is still a Quirky Weddings alternative wedding fair.
For more than seven years, we've been creating wedding fairs for couples who want to do things their own way.Colourful. Gothic. Geeky. Retro. Rock 'n' roll. Maximalist. Minimalist. Festival. Christmas. Completely unthemed.
There is no right way to have a wedding.
Our events are proudly LGBTQ+ friendly, inclusive and accessible, with suppliers who understand that your wedding should reflect you – not somebody else's idea of what a wedding is supposed to look like.
No judgement. No awkward assumptions. No pressure.Just brilliant people, great ideas and a genuinely fun day out. ❤️
