Planning your wedding can be overwhelming. Let us help

We've hand-picked some of our favourite suppliers to help you plan
your perfect day

Dress to Impress

From bridesmaids to wedding guests, the dress you wear to a wedding is often only worn once, so why not hire one? Hirestreet offer this environmentally- and economically-friendly option. From pastel midis to satin maxis, elegant evenings styles and summer staples, Hirestreet have hundreds of bridesmaid and wedding guest outfits available to rent for a fraction of the retail price, with brands including Runaway and Dress The Population. hirestreetuk.com

Put a Ring on It

David Summerfield offer a wide selection of engagement rings and wedding bands, as well as bridal sets for women, including diamond-encrusted ladies’ wedding bands. But if you can’t find the perfect wedding ring for you, take advantage of their bespoke service (where you can recreate a favoured style or create something entirely new), and it’ll stay sparkling with complimentary cleaning for life. Visit their stores in Chester-le-Street and the Metrocentre. davidsummerfield.co.uk

Mum’s the Word

Offering refined wedding wear for mothers of brides and grooms, book an appointment at Anela in The Exchange, North Shields, to be guided through their collection and find the perfect style for you. In a relaxed and welcoming space, you’ll share a hot drink or glass of fizz, and browse Anela’s own occasionwear as well as designs from Kevan Jon and Gabriela Sanchez (to name just a few), plus hats and fascinators to complete your look. anela.co.uk

For the Kids

Founded by Darcy Hamilton, a qualified primary school teacher, The Wedding Nanny Teacher began with its first wedding in Ronda, Spain last year. Now Darcy provides bespoke, luxury wedding childcare across the North East, ensuring every child feels included, valued and cared for while giving couples the freedom to relax, celebrate and treasure their wedding day. weddingnannyteacher.co.uk
