While planning, there have been several items which I had a particular vision for in my mind...but could not find them commercially available; so I have found myself going the bespoke/custom route on several items (engagement ring, ring enhancer, veil and headpiece). Has anyone else just not been able to find an item(s) that fit the vision you have for them and decided to have them made the way you want them? I would love to see your bespoke/custom/one-of-a-kind items!! These are mine (headpiece is currently being made, so I don’t have photos of it yet) Veil
Oh my goodness these are definitely gorgeous and unique!
i wouldn't say mine were one of a kind per say but i do wanna say that amongst my friends and amongst what i have seen in my life and at other weddings, me having a ruby engagement ring was different.
i had a boba bar at my wedding and that's become more a trend lately but that was the first i had seen at a wedding personally.

Thank you so much! 💕 I am envious of your Boba bar! I’ve heard people say they became trendy, but I have yet to go to a wedding that has had one

I love your ring enhancer! Very unique! Most of our wedding is pretty traditional with the expedition of my engagement ring. It’s an aquamarine center stone with a halo of blue diamonds and a halo of diamonds. I get questions all the time. I love how unique it is.
Yeh custom made my engagement ring (ruby for his birthstone and blue topaz for mine, both shaped like hearts) and wedding dress is still in the work, and i am having my circlet (instead of veil) custom made too!! (Circlet will have blue topaz stones on it as well instead of the emeralds pictured )
I wanted a Ravenclaw tiara to hold my veil in place/be a hairpiece.
So, I ordered an out of stock bookmark, my MOH took it apart, glued it to velcro and a comb, and made me a veil clip/hairpiece.

I'm not going to wear it anymore but when we were going to do a minimony, I wanted a jumpsuit with a "cape". I had the idea to sew a veil into the jumpsuit and the employees at David's Bridal were excited about the idea. I hope someone ends up doing it although I won't be!

I love this so much! My FH gave me a replica of the Tara Brooch a few years ago and I am going to turn it into a comb and wear that in my hair, and maybe a bit of tulle.
I didn't have to have them custom made, but I didn't want to do a traditional wedding shoe...so I got sequined moccasins. I've personally never seen it done at a wedding before, and I couldn't find ANY "wedding moccasins" so maybe I'm the first to wear slippers to her wedding? Not sure!
We DID however get our Mr. and Mrs. sign custom made for our reception. I wanted one, but not the traditional cursive writing. So we got a Mr. and Mrs. sign made with little Mickey Mouse heads in the Rs where the hole is supposed to be. It's so small but I'm SO excited about it!

Thank you :-) I had to look up Hailey Bieber‘s veil 😆 at first I was like, this isn’t really much like her veil 🤔 But then I saw the embroidery on the bottom! I hadn’t seen another bride with the embroidery before, so it was cool to see what it looks like Irl!

Aww I love Disney brides that do hidden Mickeys throughout their decor! It’s such a fun way to incorporate the Disney theme without it being super in your face. I’m so glad we live in a time where you can envision pretty much anything and have it made!

Oooo I love how unique you are making things! So are you having your dress custom made for you from scratch?
Yes, i started last year trying to work with a woman from ieie bridal to make it from scratch but having communication issues so i am actually going to another seamstress tonight to see what can be done with it to salvage it or to start over fresh ... the crazy woman put the pockets on the outer layer of the skirt instead of the inside of the skirt and then she had it 2x and STILL didn't hem it right and the shirt measurement are still not correct ...so we will see. ....
