Welcome to my blog, Gothic By Design

Posted on 18 May 2010

Thanks for dropping by to see what I’m about.

Presumably you are here because either you are somewhere along the way to planning a wedding of a gothic/alternative nature, or you are a wedding supplier or creative bod who is interested  in joining in the fun.

For those of you planning a wedding…..
Congratulations – both on your forthcoming nuptials and also on having the good fortune to stumble across this site.

This site has been put together to serve people like you, who are sick and tired of Googling “gothic wedding dresses” only to keep getting dragged back to the BHS website!!

If only there were enough hours in the day to do all the things you have to do anyway plus research your dream wedding.  Well, worry no longer because I’ve done all of that searching for you and have collected all that I have found here on one luvverly dark website.

Please take the time to browse through the directory.  Not all vendors are of the gothic persuasion themselves, and their websites might  not seem all that appealing to the gothic mind at first glance, but to be included in this directory they have all demonstrated to me, in one form or another, that they are more than capable of serving the goth/alternative community well.

The site is young yet and I have many more creative bods to contact for inclusion in the directory, so it should grow steadily over time.  Sign up for email updates if you want to be kept informed of new additions.

I have already posted a few articles covering the very dry subject of laws and regulations of getting married in the UK.  Take a look at the articles posted in the ‘Laws and Regulations’  category for these details and suggestions on where to go to learn more.

For those of you who want to learn more about publicising your wares…………..
I am keen to have anyone on here who can supply the UK market, with good quality, gothic goodness.

You don’t have to be of a gothy presuasion to be included; I just want you to be openminded, and keen to take on such commissions from goth/alternative clients with passion.

I am constantly on the look out for potential vendors and will contact anyone who I want to invite directly to ask permission to include them in the directory.  I am happy for people to contact me about being included in the directory, but please be aware that I aim to keep the content of the directory within a specific niche.  In order to achieve this I will have to be a bit of a control freak and, maybe from time to time, will have to let people know that their creations just don’t fit in.  Please do not be offended if this happens to you – it won’t mean that I think your wares are substandard, it will just mean that they aren’t right for my target audience.

If you have any questions about please contact me using the link above.

For anybody still reading this far………………….
Thank you for staying with me.
You can read more about me and the inspiration behind Gothic By Design in the ‘About’ link above.

Please feel free to comment or contact me directly with thoughts and opinions

I truly hope that together, we will enjoy the journey of Gothic By Design.

    I am so privileged to be part of the directory, I am so looking forward to commissions, I would LOVE to create a tiara that is VERY different from the norm and dark deep blood reds, crimsons, wine, velvet purples and midnight black sound sooooo good!
    I think this website it going to prove a success for Deb and I wish her all the very best!

  2. Good luck from one Deb to another – and congratulations on your inspired website idea!

    I am also delighted to be part of the directory, and am really looking forward to the opportunity to work with couples who want bouquets, buttonholes and accessories that are unusual, striking and extremely personal to them.

    Best of luck to Deb, and to all the couples out there planning their big day – hopefully this website will help to take some of the stress out of all the decisions you will have to make! x

    Chances are you’ll under no circumstances determine what final results come of your action, however if you do nothing there will certainly be no final result
