The Guild's Annual Wedding Fayre - Sunday, 6 February 2011













All thirty three Guild Members were present at our first wedding fayre held at Chewton Place in Keynsham, Bristol on Sunday, 6  February 2011 and what a great success it was!!

Guild Chairman, Andrew Baker said "We were delighted to see so many brides at our first show and now plan to make it an annual event.  Next year it will be bigger and even better too as we are being approached by new members"

Well over 100 brides came through the doors at our Spring Fayre, with live music by Bath Spa String Quartet greeting them together with the talented Liz from Lyrica Singers. There was a glass of bubbly to welcome the visitors and also a goody bag and the chance to win some money-off vouchers in the free raffle.

'When planning your wedding...we've got the whole package' was absolutely spot-on, with services ranging from fabulous bridalwear to beautiful bouquets, vintage style wedding cars to handmade jewellery, caterers to photographers, balloons to chocolate fountains, ice sculptures to lingerie, wedding cakes to wedding venues, honeymoons, entertainment and wedding stationery.....and lots more!!


Our fashion show featured bridalwear and bridesmaids from Anne Harding Bridal in Stoke Bishop and Bride at Home in Downend and not forgetting the boys as menswear was also featured Anne Harding. Mother of the bride's were also present with beautiful outfits from Bakos Boutique in Westbury on Trym.

Here is a glimpse of some of our models at the two fashion shows during the day, with photographs supplied by Karl from Aston Hue Photography.

Our newly appointed Commitee

Established over twenty years ago by Christine Williams and her late husband, The Guild was formed to help those couples planning their wedding day.

Twenty years later, the Guild of Professional Wedding Services is still proactive in doing the very same thing by providing a 'one stop shop' for all wedding related requirements. 

Throughout the years the Guild has had several Commitee Chairman's and also Committee members, all volunteers who are passionate to provide couples with quality and professional companies that are recognised as being some of the best in the business.

Just over a year ago, in May 2010, a new Commitee was elected following the resignation of Lucy from Solitaire Bridal who had been Chairlady for the past four years with Lucy now concentrating on expanding her own business. 

The Committee is now headed by our new Chairman and previous Treasurer of the Guild, Andrew Baker.  Our Vice Chairman is Mike Flute with Advertising & Public Relations Officer now elected as Ksenia Curtis and Membership Secretary elected was Jayne Hobbs.

The new Committee are dedicated to moving the organisation forward with fresh ideas and the recruitment of a number of new members.

A new website has been created detailing all Guild members with direct links through to their websites. 

Our first wedding fayre solely for Guild members took place in February 2011 with all thirty three members in attendance and was very successful with well over 100 brides through the doors at Chewton Place in Keynsham, Bristol.

Our 'News & Blog' page has been set up by the Membership Secretary to enable couples to keep up to date with what's happening, so keep watching!!
