Today’s real weddings are pretty different to the kind of celebrations we normally used to see.
If you’re not already an Etsy addict, you’re about to be (and I’m not even sorry!). Etsy is an online marketplace for artisans, crafters and DIY suppliers to sell their wares, and it’s brimming with gorgeous buys for your wedding day. I’ve been a fan of Etsy for gift and craft supply shopping for years now, so it was pretty inevitable that it would be a go-to for wedding ideas.
You can choose to shop locally (I love ordering from Etsy’s UK sellers for faster shipping and no added tax!), and know that you’re using some of your wedding budget to support small businesses and local artisans. But what I love most about using Etsy for our wedding (aside from the awesome products and offbeat ideas) is that it’s so easy to order unique, bespoke, creative touches for your wedding, without lots of time spent waiting on quotes, confirming orders, or viewing samples.
With reviews right there, customisable options available, and an easy way to contact vendors with your questions, it’s so straight forward. And if you’re anything like me (with an unending wedding to-do list), you’ll know that there’s nothing more satisfying than putting a giant red tick on your list.
So, if you’d like to press on with some wedding details (and have them ordered before you finish your lunch break!), we’ve put together a list of 10 of our favourite wedding products from Etsy that will add serious style to your day.
1. Pretty Pom Poms and Tissue Garlands

2. Send Off Sparkles
3. Groomsmans Gifts
Bridal party gifts are often something that get left to the very last minute (especially groomsman gifts!). So avoid doing a last minute dash to buy cufflinks or whiskey the week of your wedding, and pick up something altogether cooler instead.
We love these beard oils and colognes from Ravenscourt Apothecary, not only are they rather dapper, but they’re cruelty free and handmade too.
4. Beautiful Edibles
Soft, chewy and delicious, but small enough to eat, while still looking ladylike! And they’re pretty too.
5. Bespoke Cake Toppers
6. Bespoke Signs and Cards
7. Elegant Hair Accessorize
Not only are their bridal headpieces unique and beautiful, but they’re also an example of how Etsy wares aren’t all crafty or DIY-looking, they can also be really stylish and luxe too.
8. Gold Foil Balloons
We’ve featured a few real weddings with gold balloons over the last few months, and they always look like the most fun parties!
If you’re worried about your day lacking a celebratory vibe, these bright, punchy balloons will give your bash some instant cool. Check out the array on offer from Inspired Company 4U on Etsy.
