Kenmore, Perthshire Fascinator Making Hen Party fun

This brilliant fascinator making hen party saw Arabella Bridal’s Danielle heading up to the lovely Mains of Taymouth estate near Kenmore in Perthshire to run a class for some lovely hens.   They all had lots of fun whilst they each learnt to make a unique fascinator.  This was one of our mini fascinator making classes so the styles that Danielle taught were a bit simpler than in our longer class, but as you can see they managed to come up with some really beautiful designs making use of all the materials that we provided. Thanks again to all of the lovely hens for making it such a fun...

Hen Party in Leith – fascinator making in the Granary

Hen Party in Leith – fascinator making in the Granary

We held another of our very popular fascinator making classes recently in the function room of the Granary in Edinburgh’s lovely Leith area.  The hens were tucking into a delicious buffet when we arrived and enjoyed their food and drink while we taught them how to make some lovely fascinators. Some of the hens chose to design their own and got very creative with lots of attention to detail – sewing beads onto the delicate netting that we had brought along and mixing textures for an interesting finish. Others chose to stick to the designs that we had brought along for them to copy and they all worked away for a couple of hours with Hannah helping them with their creations.  As this was one of our mini classes, the hen party had two hours to make their designs and all did really well managing to create some fantastic fascinators in the time they had.   The function room was quite dark so we had to be a bit creative with our photoshoot at the end of the fascinator making class, and all went down to post on the mezzanine for our group shot! Thanks to all the hens for being such good fun!...

Fascinator Making with a vintage twist!

Danielle had lots of fun at the gorgeous Butterfly and Pig tearooms again recently running another lovely Fascinator Making Workshop for a hen party.  The setting was perfect for a quirky vintage class and we added a touch of vintage bunting to finish it off. The girls all made gorgeous fascinators with a vintage twist – choosing to include lots of lovely birdcage veils in their designs.  Every fascinator was different and unique, and the girls were all delighted with the outcomes. The girls very kindly wrote to us afterwards to say: “Hi Hannah,  I just wanted to write and say thank you and Danielle for the fascinator workshop, it was excellent! Everyone really enjoyed it and commented on how personable and helpful Danielle was.” So lovely of them – we love our job! Here are some pics of the afternoon, before the girls tucked into their delicious afternoon tea – the cakes at the Butterfly and Pig really are to die...

Louise’s Hen Party Fascinator Making Workshop

A couple of weeks ago we ran another wonderful fascinator making workshop in Hemma in the centre of Edinburgh for the lovely Louise’s hen party.  Louise arrived looking stunning having been made up by the very talented Miss Dixiebelle.  As is so often the case, several of the girls looked terrified as Arabella Bridal’s Hannah explained what they were going to be making – many of them saying that they couldn’t sew and weren’t creative – but as usual, despite that, everyone produced amazing pieces and surprised themselves at what they had achieved! It was a great afternoon and both Hannah and Marie-Anne had a fabulous time with the ladies and were sad when it was all over! Thanks to Louise for allowing us to share some photos of her afternoon and the hens in...

Tartan Twist in Glasgow’s West End – hen party fascinator making workshop

A couple of weeks ago, Arabella Bridal’s lovely Danielle had a stylish afternoon in Glasgow’s swanky West End for another hen party fascinator making class in the chief bridesmaid’s home.  It was a fun workshop with a delicious handmade afternoon tea from a vintage tea set, in a beautifully decorated venue with plenty of laughter…and of course an inspired range of fascinators made by the gorgeous hens. A really nice twist at this party with the incorporation of the two families tartans into many of the hens designs. They produced some gorgeous fascinators – well done ladies!   Here are some photos from the...
