Supplier Spotlight - Masquerade Masks

‘Masque Boutique’, set up by Tanith Harvey-Smith, aims to provide a unique service to customers and brides-to-be, by offering bespoke creations of her masquerade masks and mini top hat fascinators, at the same prices as her pre-made designs sold on the website.

Inspired by her time living in Italy and having married in Venice during the famous ‘Carnivale’ (complete with a traditional Venetian mask of course), Tanith set out to create a continual range of products that would not only be completely unique to the person wearing them, but also affordable.

As every person has their own style, this meant that the ranges included everything from romantic lace designs right through to Gothic themes, with nothing being too much trouble to design.

‘When I first started designing the launch range, I wanted to create something very different from what I had seen already online, but keeping within realistic price ranges. I scoured antique and vintage shops and online stores for inspiring jewellery, laces and materials as I wanted to mix them up with more contemporary accessories, allowing for the fact that although the traditional Venetian masks are incredibly beautiful, they don’t always cater to our more modern tastes and dress designs.’

With the increasing popularity of Masquerade Weddings, Tanith uses her own experience of organising her own masquerade wedding reception, to help brides with ideas and organising masks for their guests. Brides are encouraged to send in images of their dress or outfit and any samples of the materials so that a mock up of the mask or hat can be put together for design approval.

Tanith works closely with her clients offering advice as to what is comfortable to wear and working within a budget which can be anything from £20 up to £100 depending on materials and the design. If guests are expected to wear masks, then Masque Boutique can also arrange for bulk orders at discount, budget mask ranges or a discount code giving up to 20% the website prices.
