Wearing a wedding garter is a time-honored idea, considered to be the oldest surviving wedding tradition (who knew, right?!). And for brides who are considering a garter for their big day, we’re excited to introduce The Wedding Garter Co., designers of luxury heirlooms intended to be passed on from generation to generation. Each item is made by hand, from the finest materials, in their workshop near the ancient Roman city of Bath, England. The lace used to carefully craft each garter is from a company (owned by the 8th generation of the same family) who have been making lace in the same building since 1845. And each garter comes wrapped in a beautiful box, designed to last for decades, accompanied by a handmade lace dust bag. Fusing understated British luxury with Parisienne romance, The Wedding Garter Co.‘s objective is to not only craft accessories that brides will love, but to make the entire experience special.
We’ve definitely fallen for these beauties, big time. Here are a couple of our personal faves…
Sarah Jane, Creative Director of The Wedding Garter Co. says, Though ours is a thoroughly English company, my husband and I feel very much at home in the USA – we visit a lot! Maybe that is because we share a language but I think it’s also all the traditions we have in common. Wearing a wedding garter is one of those traditions.
To celebrate our shared history, The Wedding Garter Co. is offering a 15% discount on their lace garter collection to their American customers this weekend only! Shipping is insured and totally free to the USA – it takes just a few days!
Discount valid until Monday, Sept 8th at 9pm PDT // Use the code ‘GOUSA’, Display prices in $USD using the drop down at the top of the pages (bottom on mobile) // At checkout prices are in £GBP; your bank will make the conversion for you

Does anyone know who makes the dresses (specifically the one in the 3rd picture)? I know they’re selling the garters, but I am obsessed with that unique dress! (Although it looks like it isn’t lined) Thanks!
Hi Alexa,
Thanks for your comment. The dresses are by Katya Katya Shehurina and are beautiful! Hope that helps.

I am curious about the dresses too please. Were the pics generated by the company or this site?
Those dresses and garter belts are beautiful!
