The fayre, for couples who dream of a bespoke wedding and value the handmade touch, aims to build on the success of 2013's event, which attracted nearly 1,300 visitors from Wolverhampton and the surrounding areas.

Event organiser Laura Page said: "We are now inviting applications from companies and craftspeople from across the UK to sell and promote their handmade and vintage products including jewellery, millinery, stationery, decorations as well as related services such as, venues, photography, florist and cake design.

"We expect among 40 companies to showcase their products and services and couples can come along and find out about new ideas and meet exhibitors who offer something different.

"This year's event will also look at how weddings have evolved over the years with a display looking back through time, from the 1900's to the present day wedding."

The fayre will take place on Saturday 22 March, 2014 - 11am to 4pm and stall prices cost £54 per table with larger stands available on request. Interested companies and craftspeople should apply to Laura Page, Cultural Promotions Assistant, by sending a description of their products or wedding service along with 2 or 3 images by Friday 31 January, 2014.
