Question 1

Who are Garter & Veil?

Accepted Answer

Garter & Veil is a British bridal accessories house specialising in handcrafted veils, headpieces, hair adornments and bridal jewellery. Each piece is designed with intention and created to become an heirloom — something that feels personal, meaningful, and beautifully made.

Question 2

Who is behind Garter & Veil?

Accepted Answer

The brand was founded by designer Gemma Victoria, who brings over 20 years of design experience to her work. After graduating with a BA (Hons) in Fashion & Textile Design from the prestigious Winchester School of Art — under the mentorship of renowned artist Michael Angove — Gemma went on to work with leading British designers including Lee Broom, Osborne & Little, and Louise Bradley.
Her background in textiles, interiors and luxury design shapes the thoughtful, detail-driven approach behind every Garter & Veil piece.

Question 3

What makes Garter & Veil different?

Accepted Answer

Every design is made to order in our West Sussex studio using artisan techniques and high-quality materials sourced with care. We create slowly, intentionally, and in small batches — allowing us to maintain a level of craftsmanship that simply isn’t possible in mass production.
Our aesthetic blends modern British design with heirloom artistry. Clean, sculptural lines meet delicate hand-worked detailing, resulting in accessories that feel contemporary yet enduring.

Question 4

Do you work with boutiques or stockists?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we partner with a small number of carefully selected bridal boutiques who share our values of quality, craftsmanship and personal service. If you’re interested in becoming a stockist, you can contact us here.

Question 5

Is Garter & Veil a sustainable business?

Accepted Answer

We take a thoughtful approach to sustainability.
All pieces are made to order, reducing overproduction and waste. We work with trusted suppliers, prioritise durable materials, and create accessories made to be treasured long after the wedding day. Our packaging is designed to be both protective and recyclable where possible and manufactured in the UK.

Question 6

Do you collaborate with creatives, artists or stylists?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we love to collaborate. If you’re a stylist, photographer, content creator or artist who feels aligned with our aesthetic, we’d be delighted to discuss a partnership.
