Euphoria’s online boutique is like Cinderella’s dressing up box, full of twinkly things, bejewelled shoes and pretty bridal accessories. This wedding blogger could get lost for hours. Before I dive in, lets chat to the founder of Euphoria Boutique, Teneale, about her online treasure trove.

.
How did Euphoria Boutique begin? What is your story?
.
My previous background in business administration and quality/contracts management in the public sector has given me a whole host of skills to utilise in my business today, from business planning to money and service management. Being a creative and busy mum of three young children, my priorities changed and my children needed me at home more. I left after 10 years of service to set up Euphoria, working around nursery, nap time and school. It hasn’t been easy but I have enjoyed every minute of building Euphoria Boutique to what it has become today. “Euphoria” symbolised the happy transition in my life.

What jewellery products and bridal accessories are available from Euphoria Boutique?
.
A wide range of bridal headwear, dyeable wedding shoes, jewellery and bridal party accessories. We are accessory specialists, so we leave the gown to the bridal shops! Along with our own Euphoria brand we are also stockist to many major designers and brands. We offer our customers a wide choice of products with a good range of prices. We will help brides stay within their budget and offer any advice necessary. We want all our customers to have a positive and memorable experience with us.
.
.
Do you design and make any of the jewellery or bridal accessories on your site?
.
We have our own Euphoria brand, in which I create many of the designs and have two designers working with us for our bespoke service. We also have the facility to crystalize and customise shoes and can even put your wedding date on the sole of your shoes! We also sell some manufactured pieces to enable us to cover all budgets but the majority of wedding accessories are handmade.
.

.
Which Euphoria product is your favourite and why?
.
I am in love with the Fable dreams handmade wedding hair accessories – Hollywood meets fairytale. She is a very talented designer and a pleasure to work with. Also new to Euphoria Boutique we have launched “Weddington” boots, perfect for good old british weather, winter weddings and outdoor weddings. They are brilliant for the whole wedding party and make fantastic quirky photos.
.
.
.
.
Can you create bespoke bridal accessories?
.
Yes we can. We offer free consultations and advise our brides on the best way to make their dream a reality. We work with all materials, crystals and fabrics and have no boundaries when it comes to design. We are currently in the process of designing some green polka dot wedding shoes for a bride having a vintage wedding tea party.

.
What celebrity would you like to see in a Euphoria product and why?
.
I would loved to have seen Kate Moss wearing the Weddington Boots for her three day festival wedding in July! I also think she would look fabulous in some of our bohemian floral wedding headwear with birdcage veil.

Which products are your best sellers?
.
With the current wedding hair updo, our bun wrap is extremely popular. Adorned with crystals and pearls, this wedding hair accessory is so versatile and flexible as it can be worn as either as a tiara or bun wrap. It’s beautiful and only £75. We have also seen an increase in demand for gold wedding jewellery and accessories this season. Our vintage wedding jewellery set is very popular at the minute. It also has a matching tiara. The whole set including tiara can be purchased for £150 and is also available on a silver finish. Our wedding dress sashes have had quite a lot of publicity this last month and have also featured in bridal magazines. There are many designs available and brides may customise their own design. From Grecian, vintage to art deco designs.
.
.
.
.
Can you buy all your products online?
.
Yes, but as well as purchasing online, our clients may also visit us by appointment, in our boutique in Silver Street, Stockton on Tees. Quite often local brides pick their wedding accessories online then come into the boutique to see if they look right with their dress and colour scheme. We will also do home appointments and bridal evenings upon request.
.

.
.
Are you married? What Euphoria Boutique products would you choose for your own wedding day?
.
I would love to have got married overseas on a Caribbean island. I would have loved a beach wedding, Grecian style chiffon dress, sun-kissed tan and floral accessories. Possibly wedding flip flops and one of our handmade wedding dress sashes. In the evening I would wear the Benjamin Adams Swarovski crystal Electra shoes as they are so glamorous and lots of sparkle.
.
.
.
.
What Euphoria Boutique products would you recommend for a Bride on a budget?
.
I would recommend one of our wedding combs. They start at £35 and are beautiful. I particularly love the ivory pearl and crystal comb for £35. It is very light therefore versatile for different hair types and hairstyles. They are also popular for bridesmaids.
.
.
.
.
What pieces would you recommend as bridesmaid’s gifts?
.
I think the wedding wellies are a brilliant idea. Especially as they can be worn after the wedding (especially in this typical British Weather). Our Swarovski crystal teardrop wedding jewellery set is priced at £38. This set comes beautifully wrapped with a personalised message card. It is also available in a range of different colours, chain lengths and clip or pierced ears.
.
.
.
.
Can you give Brides Up North an idea on price?
.
We cover all budgets and price ranges and work closely with our brides to ensure we are offering them products within their set budget. We do discounts for multiple purchases and have exclusive discount offers on our Facebook page (search for Euphoria).
