Fruitbat Textiles – Bridal Headpiece Collection

Posted on April 6, 2016 | Comments Off

Today on Marry Me Ink, I get to introduce you to Charlotte of Fruitbat Textiles – Fashion accessories that now have a bridal collection. The pieces are gorgeous and will look great for the tattooed bride going for a vintage feel!

My name is Charlotte, and my business is Fruitbat Textiles. I recently graduated from UCA Farnham where I specialised in woven textiles. While I studied I worked as a milliners assistant, this really sparked a passion in me for fashion accessories, and the combination of skills I have learned have made for a really unique business. I have always had love of textiles, and quirky/alternative fashion so my business is a really exciting way to share that love with others!

More often than not I am inspired by my home county of Somerset and its beautiful countryside, especially in my dying and weaving. This particular collection was inspired by a selection of Irregular Choice bridal shoes – I absolutely adore their designs! I love the combinations of textures through different materials and mixing patterns, and most of all the quirky twist on traditional styles and fabrics. This is what I tried to echo in my headwear collection.

Charlotte Balbier – Balbier Separates

Posted on April 1, 2016 | 1 comment

Today I get to share with you the gorgeous new collection of separates from Marry Me Ink favourite Charlotte Balbier. I think bridal separates are a great idea, especially if you’re having difficulty of finding a dress with all the perfect pieces – The Charlotte Balbier separates collection ensures you get your favourite train along with your ideal laced tops, complete with a waist belt of your choice!

Above are the three basic slips to start creating your dream dress. First is the Hero camisole and Cosima “A” line in shape with pockets and a pitted waist band. Secondly is the Harper satin dress – A great slip base to overlay with a lace top, or to just leave on its own. Lastly is Cecily – A soft tulle gown with lace underlay and short tulle sleeves and delicate lace motifs on the bodice and sleeves. Cecily comes with a detachable tulle train detail.

Above are the stunning waist belts to adorn your dress – AW-1251, AW-1237, AW-1252 and the Belle Belt.

Inspiration – A Wild And Free Wedding

Posted on March 11, 2016 | Comments Off

Tattoos, beard and horses – This is what Cillia Ciabrini of Pour Fair Court shared with me and I’m so glad I get to feature it on Marry Me Ink. This inspirational wedding shoot was born from the desire to bring together a intimate wedding in a wild and bohemian atmosphere – a little rock and folk. This shoot is full of geometric colour and gorgeous landscapes.. My favourite! I had the chance to speak to Cillia about her styling ideas for the shoot.

It all started with the encounter with Lena and Aden – a beautiful couple with atypical traits and tattooed bodies but particularly funny and sweet! I have to admit, the beauty of Lena hit me – she releases an incredible softness and her beauty is timeless. She’s one of these warm beauties that seems cold from the outside, she’s mysterious and fascinating and it is exactly this atmosphere that I wanted to reflect, a winter wedding with a blue light but a warm couple. Sublimated by the Make Up of Alexia Parisi, Lena is gorgeous in her tailored silk dress made by the talented Kaa Couture.

Aden wears a suit by Vaubecour Lyon. (Even though he is more used to wearing jeans and sneakers!) All their tattoos were done at Lena’s shop in Lyon, Ink’a Tattoo. This is where they met and where I have also seen them for the first time.
