5 Unique Wedding Vendors To Check Out

Ever dreamed of serenading your partner with original poetry, charming guests with custom wedding stationery, or having an oil painter capture your wedding IRL? If you’re ready to tie the knot with a twist, here are 5 female-founded vendors to watch!

I Do Club

For modern declarations of love.

Ever wanted to serenade your life partner with original poetry? Or, need a little help in the writing department? I Do Club is your go-to for vow-writing and editing. Asheda is the one-woman show behind it all – but you can call her Sheedy. A writer for two decades, and having recently gotten hitched herself (so she comes with plenty of recommendations in the wedding space), I Do Club is Sheedy’s way of blending her incredible copywriting skills with her love for poetry and helping people find the right words for their favourite people. But, this love-loving club isn’t just for couples! Whether you’re giving a best man’s or maid-of-honour speech, or you’re looking for some proposal help, Sheedy’s got her pen and *all the best inspo* ready for the taking. (Yup – all you gotta do is say “I do!”)

Boujee 2 Basic Bites

Private catering & pop-ups for boujee palates.

Picture stunning tablescapes adorned with delicious spreads, classy glassware, gourmet nibbles, mouthwatering cakes and more. It’s all made possible by the very talented Alex at Boujee 2 Basic Bites. What started as an online recipe and restaurant guide has evolved into a private catering service, with (dare we say – very boujee) menus curated by Alex herself. Whether you’re throwing together a small hens’ dinner, an engagement celebration or an intimate elopement meal, Alex is your gal (and trust us when we say, she’s got impeccable taste!).

Fine Wine Studio

Wedding stationery that’s sure to leave a lasting impression.

Meeting with Tess from creative studio Fine Wine Studio is like chatting with a mate over a glass of vino. Tess not only works with brands to re-design their websites, but she also devotes an entire arm of her business to creating wedding stationery and keepsakes for couples. We’re talking save-the-dates, wedding invitations, boards, on-the-day table stationery, thank you cards and so much more. Choose from pre-designed stationery suites, customise them to your taste, or collab to create your very own one-of-a-kind design. Whatever you choose, leave it to Tess to capture the full flavour of your love.

The Fairytale Painter

Your love, captured in ways photos can’t.

So, you’ve got the wedding photographer or videographer, but you’re looking for something a little different, a little creative, a little …. romantic. Cue Rhi from The Fairytale Painter – a classically trained oil painter, portrait artist and live wedding painter who’ll be there on your big day to bring your love story to canvas. You and your guests can watch the magic happen, and once the party’s over, Rhi will take the painting back to her studio, work on retouches, and allow the oil time to dry for a few weeks before varnishing. Your completed live wedding painting will be ready for admiring on that wall of yours within 8-10 weeks!

Off The Hook

A modern guest book for unforgettable memories.

Um, hello? 1989 is calling. The Off The Hook Audio Guest Book allows your guests to capture voice messages on a retro phone. A modern alternative to the traditional signed guest book, your mates can leave you heartfelt (or hilarious) voice messages that you can listen to over and over. From weddings and engagements to hens nights, this one’s for the nostalgic, the groovy, and the ones who want to do things differently. Choose from 10 phone colours and set it up yourself (it’s super easy!) With room for 3000 messages, there’s plenty of space for your loved ones to leave you funny messages (or confess gossip and secrets) all night long. (Juicy!).

Need inspo? See the guest book in action by heading to @offthehook.au.

With these fun and unique vendors doing things a little differently, your big day will be anything but ordinary. Because who says you can’t have a little extra fun while saying “I do!?”
