What makes the Alt Wedding Fair unique?

At the Alt Wedding Fair, we’re redefining the traditional wedding fair experience. This event is packed with:

• 35+ alternative and inclusive suppliers offering everything from unique décor to bold fashion, quirky cakes, and creative entertainment.
• A focus on celebrating diversity and championing suppliers who are aligned with your values.
• A welcoming, wheelchair-accessible venue for attendees of all abilities.
• A day filled with music, entertainment, and lots of inspiration for your big day!

What’s happening on the day?

Our event is divided into three sessions to suit a variety of needs:

11am–12pm: Accessibility Hour

This quieter hour offers a calmer, more relaxed environment for attendees who may find large crowds or loud settings overwhelming. With reduced numbers, no music, and soothing vibes, it’s perfect for those who need more space.

1 free PA ticket is available with each paying ticket (contact [email protected] for details).

12pm–2pm: Main Session

The energy ramps up with music, entertainment, and plenty of opportunities to meet and chat with suppliers who are ready to help you craft the ultimate alternative wedding.

2pm–4pm: Afternoon Session

Can’t make it earlier? Don’t worry – this session includes everything from 12pm–2pm but starts slightly later.

Can I bring my dog?

YES! 🐾 We welcome your friendly, well-behaved dogs on leads. Bring your four-legged friends to join in the fun – after all, they’re part of the family too!
