A garter is a fabulously glamorous addition to your bridal attire; as well as a seductive surprise for your groom (he is guaranteed to love it) Simply put, it is the perfect secret accessory! And new British brand  The Wedding Garter Co specialises in creating bloomin’ gorgeous garters out of luxury, love and with finesse. The Wedding Garter Co is part of Britten, the luxury bridal accessories brand – you must remember their deliciously deco feather fans from their 2013 collection! (I am hoping to share their 2014 collection shortly). Well, at Britten the focus is on hair accessories, fans and purses; and the lady behind the brand, Sarah Jane, decided garters are different. Romantic and hidden they deserved her sole focus…..

And so  The Wedding Garter Co was born. Every garter in this their first range is unique, designed by Sarah Jane, and handmade in her ancient workshop in Bath. Every bead is hand sewn, every pattern hand drawn, every piece of lace hand cut, and every flower hand pressed. Understated British luxury with Parisienne romance, handmade with love, each piece is presented in a luxurious dust bag and gift box – designed to keep the garter protected to be cherished for generations…..

The collection comprises of 15 intricate designs available in ivory and a selection of the softest most romantic colours. Made from the most luxurious silks and delicate lace, the garters are beautifully embellished with fine crystals, pearls and Swarovski opals. From statement vintage inspired pieces to more subtle sleek designs (designed with slinky, form fitting dresses in mind)  The Wedding Garter Co have a garter perfect for each and every bridal look.

They even have a Toss Garter, which can be purchased for a nominal sum along with one of these beauties, which are obviously far too beautiful to toss away to your wedding party. Simple, but ever so pretty with a pearl hand stitched in the centre, you can choose between lace and velvet.

Fallen in love with a style but not sure what size to order? It’s easy! Measure around your leg where you want to wear the garter and choose the option that corresponds. If your measurement is not listed choose ‘Custom’ and leave a note when you checkout, Sarah Jane and her team will make one especially for you at NO extra charge!

Wow, what bride wouldn’t feel glamorous (and more than a little sexy) slipping one of these gorgeous garters on….do you have a fave? I love the designs with a hint of blue and I am a sucker for pearls so mine would have to be Acela!
