Wedding Extravaganza

Shop On Carrol hosted its second Wedding Extravaganza, an event that showcased vintage wedding dresses, jewellery displays and wedding accessories.

Teaming up with the Dunedin City Council’s Slow Fashion September campaign, the shop was transformed with wedding displays, candle-making and vintage jewellery workshops, followed by a vintage wedding fashion show. Volunteer models walked through the shop, while MCs Lois Scott-Muir (PSO Ambassador) and Dr Margo Barton (from the School of Design at the Otago Polytechnic) provided insightful commentary on how the dresses could be transformed, upcycled and repurposed.

The event was a complete success with many people enjoying the day and the fun atmosphere in the shop. Events like these also help raise extra funds for our local social services, through ticket sales, shop sales and donations.
