Shoes and Accessories

Accessories are an essential part of your ensemble. Don't leave it too late to choose your shoes, gloves, handbag, veil or headpiece.

You don't need to spend a fortune, its all about style and complementing your wedding gown or suit.

If you buy leather shoes, see if they are vegetable dyed or choose fabric shoes made under fairly traded conditions. Choose wisely and your shoes could be dyed after the wedding to be used for years afterwards - recycle!

If you're vegetarian or vegan and can't bear the thought of wearing leather shoes for your wedding there is now some a fabulous stylish and ethical footwear on the market.

Go antique and use your grandmother's veil. Or if you're buying new choose silk tulle, not nylon.

Use a vintage handbag of your mother's or borrow from a friend. There are some very creative UK based makers producing beautiful one off handbags. Find one to complement your outfit and keep it as a momento of the day displayed as a work or art in your new home.

Headpieces and hats come in many styles - there's bound to be one to suit you. And again, find a local maker to create a unique design specially for your wedding day.

Our partners offer a wide range beautiful and stylish ethical shoes and accessories.
