Glitz And Sparkle

TDR Bridal Birmingham has recently launched The Tiara Shop, a one-stop shop for everything sparkly. With almost 20 years of experience, TDR Bridal Birmingham created The Tiara Shop to give brides access to some of the in-store choices that previously only TDR brides could buy.

Rebecca Baddeley, the owner, tells us: “We wanted to offer brides who haven’t bought their wedding dress from us a way to access our accessories, and so The Tiara Shop was born! There is so much choice out there, but we hope by buying from a bridal dress retailer, you will have the assurance that you are buying a quality product and that you will get great, honest service from us too. We know bridal, it’s in our DNA and is what we do. Choosing accessories for our online shop has been an absolute delight, and we are now able to offer so much more to all of our lovely brides!”

Glorious Gardens

Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens is now registered to hold legal ceremonies anywhere in its grounds. Once part of the Earl of Bradford’s estate, the property is an early 18th century formal garden design rescued, nurtured and now owned by an independent Charitable Trust. Keeping largely to a period-relevant style with plant species and heritage fruit from 1680-1760, it’s like visiting the Baroque countryside in the middle of a 21st century city.

Offering 10 acres of formal walled gardens encircled by a further 30 acres of local nature reserve, Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens is an outdoor dry hire venue, offering couples a beautiful blank canvas to create the day exactly as they want.

The wedding team at Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens tells us: “Our couples have the freedom to not only have the wedding reception they want but can choose their favourite place in our gardens to say ‘I do’. This will allow our couples to have their wedding their way.”
