Gothic Wedding Help Needed

Hi, my partner and I are having a red and black, gothic themed wedding but are struggling to find some things without spending a lot of money. Does anyone know/have suggestions where we can find gothic waistcoats, black (with red accents) bridesmaids dresses, cake toppers (she's wearing a red wedding dress), decorations, gifts for the wedding party? Thank you

There is a shop in my town that is called Mesmerise and they have an online shop and a Facebook page. I got a bag and a dress from there and a few other bits.

I’m having a Halloween wedding so a few gothic themes.
Cake topper Amazon
Depends on the style of the dress but I’m using ebay for a lot of things x

I make lots of items all bespoke

UKbride Member 4 Feb 2020

eBay or Amazon. You would be surprised at what you can find in there.

Iv seen in the range today red roses with black stems if that’s any good

Etsy is a godsend. Empires good for clothing.

UKbride Member 4 Feb 2020

Studio sell loads of gothic decor. Disturbia or Killstar for clothing

UKbride Member 4 Feb 2020

I'm getting some fake flowers and crystal s (dark purple and black) from Wish. Will get black candlestick there as well. I'm having a black dress and for my husband to me, we are having a look at steam punk/gothic shops. But lots of my decoration cones from China for cheap 😁. Gothic wedding as well!

Have you tried looking at the killstar buy sell swaps and stuff? Theres tons of alt stuff sold on there and not only killstar things :)

This is going to sound silly but some great quality but low priced clothes on amazon. My husband does larp and his group are called the crimson reapers so we've bought loads of red waistcoats on amazon the last one was a long one with tails and was only £15 good luck! Sounds amazing! I've also got 3 long dark red bridesmaid dresses that have like a Cape around the shoulders brand new sat in my wardrobe with tags still on, as we changed style at last moment if you want to pm me you can have them? They cost over £500 and just sat there doing nothing. Would be happy to see them go to a better place x

Ebay and wish

UKbride Member 5 Feb 2020

I would say go to the markets in Camden. I see loads of stuff like this!

UKbride Member 5 Feb 2020

We got bridesmaid dresses at fairygothmother ..if they still have a website they were great quality

UKbride Member 5 Feb 2020

I make paper flowers and have made black bouquets before. Can also do button holes, hair accessories, centrepieces, etc.
