    My partner bought here. She said it worked out as cheap as renting and got them made exactly to match outfits.

    A friend of mine gets her fascinators made by TJ Quinn in Petals & Buds (florist) in Ballinrobe. They match them to the dress. She said they were very reasonably priced.

    You could get one made and get it slightly adjusted to suit each outfit.

    I'd be wary of buying hats in Galway in the run up to the races. Prices go up.

    He makes them with all the usual feathers and bits and pieces. Although I'm sure he could put a flower in it if you wanted, lol. She got hers for between €20 - €30.

    I can highly recommend his work. Attended a wedding in Westport lately and both mothers and several guests were wearing his pieces. All fab and completely different, one off pieces. Very reasonable too

    Yes TJ Quinn does great stuff. And like the previous poster said will match things up to the dress really well. Also in Ballinrobe, just around the corner from Petals and Buds is Dee Biggins shop and she rents out fascinators. She has a face book page- think it's deebigginsshop. There were pics of the fascinators posted up a couple of weeks ago and there was a great selection.
