Fancy BOWtique Bridal Couture { A Celebration Must-Have}

Let's Meet the Owner ~ Elena


“ My name is Elena and I love creating flowers and hair accessories inspired by Vintage fashion. Since the early years of my childhood, I have been watching and helping my mother, who was a passionate dressmaker. I started to make dresses and accessories for my dolls and very soon was making my own clothes. "


" I have been inspired to create hair pieces for my darling daughter, when I couldn't find anything pretty for her beautiful hair. Following this, I started to make items for friends and family. This led on to the design of my first collection for girls, which quickly evolved into Occasional pieces. I started receiving orders for Bridesmaids and Flower Girls. In 2012 I designed my first Bridal Collection at www.fancybowtique.co.uk ."


" My Fancy BOWtique Bridal Couture collection is inspired by the past eras. I use professional millinery tools and techniques to delicately hand press each petal of a silk flower. I then adorn it with a freshwater pearl or vintage jewels. I use luxurious fabrics, such as lace, silk and chiffon to craft the most exquisite and original headpieces that will never go out of style. "


" With exquisite tiaras, pearl jewellery and bridal accessories, Fancy BOWtique Bridal Couture caters for the bride, bridesmaids and flower girls.

PetalGem - { A Celebration Must-Have}


Let's Meet the Owner ~ Amanda

“ Hi, my name is Amanda. I’m from northern Alberta and newly married this summer to my awesome husband! We have two puppies named Benji and Panda, they keep our lives interesting and are always getting into mischief.”

“ I keep busy with my day job and my online shop called PetalGem. I sell silk wedding flowers, brooch bouquets and vintage jewelry. I love getting to work with brides and the opportunity to be creative. “

“ I started up my shop on Etsy last January. My inspiration came from creating my own bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages for my own wedding. I enjoyed it and it progressed from there. Starting up my shop I only had a few items for sale, as of now I have a lot more variety and I’m proud of my progress. For the coming year I will continue to add new designs and work on custom orders for brides. “

“ Please feel welcomed to contact me, I love to work with brides to create beautiful and unique wedding flower arrangements! “
