Described as a ‘Kickass blog that helps brides avoid a cliché ridden, cookie cutter wedding”, Bespoke Bride was lovingly founded by two fiercely individual girls, Emily Pettiford & Jessica Turley. Launched in 2011, as a personal way to journal quirky and creative wedding photography, decor & DIY’s, Emily & Jessica focused on creating a blog that would inspire couples to design a wedding that was creative, crafty & full of character. Since its launch in 2011, Bespoke Bride has already garnered it fair share of award nominations being voted ‘Best DIY wedding Blog’ by Wedding Magazine in both 2014 & 2015, as well as receiving 'Highly Commended in the 'Best For Bridal' category by Cosmopolitan. Other notable achievements include being voted into Bride Tides Top 100 wedding blogs in 2013 and 2015. Emily and Jessica are enthusiastic when it comes to building relationships with publishers both in print and online and have been featured in magazines such as Wedding & Wedding Flowers, Perfect Wedding, Wedding Ideas, the Marie Claire blog, Mollie Makes and alternative wedding magazine, Rock n Roll Bride. Blog features have included articles on Wedding Chicks, Festival Brides and Mr & Mrs Unique as well as being a regular contributor to Style Me Pretty. Further achievements include winning ‘Upstart Women’, a competition held between The Festival of Female Entrepreneurship and Webstart Bristol to find the best female-led tech start up, with a prize of £10,000 investment and a place on Webstart Bristol’s incubator programme.
