A silk wedding garter offers understated luxury that feels as beautiful as it looks. The natural lustre of genuine silk creates a subtle sheen that catches the light beautifully, while the smooth texture feels incredibly soft against your skin—pure elegance for the bride who appreciates quality.
At Britten, we handcraft every silk bridal garter in our Bath workshop using genuine silk satin rather than synthetic alternatives. The difference is noticeable—silk has a warmth and drape that polyester simply cannot match. Our silk garters are designed for brides who want something truly special: minimalist luxury that speaks for itself.
Silk has been prized for bridal wear throughout history, valued for its natural beauty and association with luxury. A silk garter is the perfect choice for brides who prefer elegance over embellishment—the material itself is the statement.
Our silk wedding garter collection offers refined elegance in various styles. Choose from pure silk satin bands with clean, minimalist lines, or silk garters with delicate lace trim for added texture. Our silk garters come in white, ivory, and champagne tones to match any dress colour.
For your something blue, several of our silk garters feature subtle blue accents—a thin blue ribbon, a small blue bow, or blue thread embroidery. We also offer personalised silk garters with embroidered wedding dates or initials, and silk wedding garter sets with coordinating keepsake and toss garters.
Silk wedding garters are perfect for brides who love understated luxury. Unlike lace garters with their intricate patterns, silk garters make their statement through material quality alone. The smooth surface showcases the natural beauty of silk—its lustre, drape, and warmth—without distraction.
Genuine silk is also exceptionally comfortable against the skin. It's naturally temperature-regulating, breathable, and hypoallergenic, making it ideal for wearing throughout a long wedding day. Our silk garters feel luxurious from the moment you put them on.
Silk garters pair particularly well with silk or satin wedding dresses, creating a cohesive bridal look from dress to hidden details. They also complement minimalist, modern wedding aesthetics where clean lines and quality materials take precedence over embellishment.
Every handmade silk garter in our collection is individually crafted using genuine silk satin sourced for its quality and beauty. We don't use synthetic alternatives—our silk has the natural lustre, warmth, and drape that only real silk provides. Our elastic is soft and stretchy, designed to stay in place without marking your skin.
Sarah personally checks every garter before it's packaged, ensuring the silk is flawless and the stitching is precise. This hands-on approach means you receive something truly special—a piece crafted with care that you'll treasure as a beautiful reminder of your wedding day.
Silk wedding garters create an elegant, refined look that suits both classic and contemporary weddings. The smooth surface photographs beautifully, catching the light with a natural lustre. Position your garter on your left thigh, a few inches above the knee, where it will sit comfortably and securely.
For brides doing a garter toss, consider a silk garter set with a beautiful keepsake garter and a simpler toss garter. The silk keepsake becomes a treasured memento, while the toss garter keeps the tradition fun and lighthearted.
Silk is a natural fibre that benefits from gentle care. Store your silk garter in its original packaging away from direct sunlight to preserve its colour. If you're keeping it as a keepsake—which most brides do—store it with your other wedding mementos in a cool, dry place. The quality of genuine silk means your garter will remain beautiful for years to come.
