Bar M Custom Tack and Hats

It’s a live, on-site hat-making experience where you and your guests are fitted, shaped, and styled with custom hats during your wedding. Think entertainment + keepsake in one.

It’s completely flexible. You can have hats pre-ordered and ready for pickup, or go for the full live experience where guests are fitted, shaped, and styled on the spot. We can run it high-touch and interactive, or keep it more low-key—whatever suits your day, your guests, and the kind of atmosphere you want to create.

Completely up to you. Some couples gift hats to guests or their bridal party, while others have a “pay your own” setup on the night. We can tailor it to suit your budget and vision.

Both cowboy hats and fashion styles (like fedoras), in a range of colours and materials. Everything is custom-shaped on the day to suit the wearer.

This totally depends on the level of interaction and customisation you would like to have. It can be a quick come and choose your hat, get fitted, choose your customisations, go and enjoy a drink or dinner and come back to pick up.
