How verification works
Every seller on our marketplace goes through a human-reviewed verification process before their listings go live. Here's how we keep it real:
- 1
Seller identity check
We verify each seller is a real person operating a legitimate handmade business, not a reseller or dropshipper.
- 2
Workshop documentation
Sellers provide evidence of their workspace and process: photos, videos, or other documentation showing how items are made by hand.
- 3
Anti-slop image screening
Every listing image is checked against known dropship and stock-photo databases. Suspicious listings are held for human review before publication.
Frequently asked questions
What is Brooklyn's wedding style?
Brooklyn weddings tend toward modern, design-forward, and artisan-made — clean typography, simple ceramics, natural textiles, and custom jewelry. The emphasis is on intentional, well-designed details rather than lavish or traditional conventions. Many Brooklyn venues (warehouses, lofts, gardens) complement this aesthetic.
Can I find a custom engagement ring from a Brooklyn jeweler?
Brooklyn has a large community of independent jewelers who design custom engagement and wedding rings. Many work by appointment in studio spaces, offering a consultative process where you choose stones, metals, and design details. Custom rings typically take four to eight weeks from design approval to completion.
How does Verified Handmade ensure wedding vendor listings are genuinely handcrafted?
Every seller undergoes human review of their workshop, materials, and production process. Listing images are analyzed against known wholesale and dropship catalogs to confirm you are buying from a real artisan, not a reseller.
