{w} Hi notonthehighstreet.com, could you firstly tell {www} readers a little bit about you?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are notonthehighstreet.com<\/a>, an online marketplace showcasing over 2,000 of the UK\u2019s best designers and small boutiques.

We also have a unique wedding gift list service that allows our couples to choose special, quirky and personalised gifts that will be treasured for years to come.<\/p>\n

{w} How did you get into notonthehighstreet.com begin?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Holly Tucker and Sophie Cornish had a wonderfully bright idea back in 2006: to create a place where you could find unique and carefully-handmade things; the kinds of things that you sometimes stumble across in cool urban markets, village fairs and tucked-away boutiques. They wanted to create a platform that would bring together these inspired small businesses and create an environment where shopping would be simple and exciting. Most importantly though, they wanted to create a one-stop destination for the most inspirational and wonderful products.<\/p>\n

And so, for all the style-seekers out there, notonthehighstreet.com<\/a> was born. The products our sellers provide are diverse and lend themselves perfectly to all gifting occasions. What is now our unique collection of wedding gifts and wedding styling products came about organically, and is better than ever.<\/p>\n

The notonthehighstreet.com<\/a> wedding gift list<\/a> service launched in 2008. Since then the collection has grown enormously, with new products being added daily. In spring this year we relaunched with a brand new department and exciting features, such as our innovative list builder and a dedicated blog to provide daily inspiration for brides-to-be.<\/p>\n

We also introduced wedding gift list contributions this year, which allows your guests to donate money towards your list; you can then put your contributions towards higher priced items, like a bespoke piece of furniture, or use the money to buy items remaining on your list after the wedding.<\/p>\n

Many of our products can be personalised and come in a range of sizes and colours, and each product page has the \u2018ask seller a question\u2019 button allowing customers to communicate with our sellers directly. Most sellers are more than happy to create bespoke designs, include personalisation or produce large quantities for you, upon request. If there\u2019s a possibility they can help, they will!<\/p>\n

{w} Do you have any tips for couples in selecting wedding styling products?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Our top tip is to look beyond the original purpose when seeking out styling items. See the potential in everything, whether it\u2019s vintage cake stands decorated with wild flowers and used as centre pieces for your tables or a distressed frame to display your seating plan. Wedding blogs are fantastic because the content is constantly updated with new ideas and they are filled with real wedding inspiration. You can see ours here: www.tietheknotonthehighstreet.com.<\/p>\n

Another important tip is to choose styling and decorations that you like and that reflect the kind of day, theme or mood you want your wedding to be about; not what you think a wedding should be like. When you look around your venue, you should be able to see and feel the unique tastes of you and your new husband in the way you have chosen to dress it.<\/p>\n
