Your wedding day is one of life’s most meaningful milestones, and choosing the perfect wedding dress is often at the heart of the celebration. With countless styles, silhouettes, and design details to consider, the search can feel overwhelming. But with a clear sense of your personal style, an understanding of current trends, and a thoughtful approach to budget and fit, dress shopping transforms from a daunting task into an exciting, memorable experience.
Finding a Wedding Dress That Complements Your Style

Understanding Your Style Profile
Before visiting any bridal boutique, reflect on your everyday fashion choices. Brides who favour clean, minimalist lines or simple wedding dresses often gravitate toward sleek, contemporary gowns, while those who love romantic, flowing fabrics may lean toward bohemian or vintage-inspired designs. Your lifestyle and wedding venue should also guide your choices: an outdoor garden ceremony requires different considerations than a formal cathedral wedding.
Personal style goes beyond fashion preferences. It is also about comfort with formality, embellishment, and attention. Some brides feel most radiant in understated elegance, while others embrace the chance to wear something dramatic and bold. Think about which approach resonates most with your personality and vision for the day.

Current Trends in Bridal Fashion
Bridal fashion continues to evolve, and 2026 collections highlight a balance of sleek minimalism, bold statements, and timeless romance. Modern brides are exploring non-traditional elements such as coloured wedding gowns, unique fabrics, and unexpected silhouettes.
Corset and bustier gowns, structured bodices, basque waists, brocade fabrics, square necklines, and pearl accents are among the standout features from recent Bridal Fashion Week collections. While these trends can inspire, remember they are suggestions, not rules. The best dress reflects your personality first, while weaving in elements that feel authentic.

Happy Bank Holiday everyone, well those of you in the UK! I hope you are having a good day what ever you are up to. So May bank holiday normally signifies that spring is here, so bring on the sunshine, late evenings, gorgeous spring flowers and hopefully lots and lots of amazing weddings! Today I am back with my colours series of Boho Pins. Last time I brought you Pink Weddings, so today I thought I would look at the colour Blue. When I think of blue weddings, I think of elegance and sophistication, dark blues, navy’s, celestial vibes along with royal influence. With lighter blues I think of fresh designs, spring flowers, crisp lines and soft hues. Destination weddings work well with a blue colour scheme, think blue seas, Greek inspiration, and Chinese designs. Blue is such a versatile colour, it is classic, timeless and perfect for so many styles of wedding. I hope you like my selection.

Happy Friday everyone and if you are in the UK happy Bank Holiday Weekend! I imagine there will be lots of weddings going on this weekend, making the most of the extra day off, I hope it is a magical day for everyone! I am off to the theatre tomorrow with Dexter and then to the cinema with a friend on Sunday, Monday we are test driving cars, so a busy but fun few days ahead. Today’s wedding is super pretty and full of the most amazing flowers, along with some fun disco themed decoration. With the theme set as ‘Groovy Garden Party’ Jenny and Cooper added a huge dose of fun to their pretty pastel wedding, with disco balls and gold vinyl. The results are this super cute but super fun wedding full of character, all captured perfectly by Love Tree Studios.
Our wedding day went through all the seasons, from a beautiful sunny morning to a freakishly cold thunderstorm, back to a beautiful rainbow just in time for sunset, and through all the chaos and change of plans for weather, we would not change a thing. We simply could not have imagined a more magical day that completely fit our vision for a groovy garden party, surrounded by so much love.
Jenny and Cooper were married on 7th June 2025 at Bluebell Farm – Fayette, Missouri. ‘We wanted a place that would be able to accommodate a large number for an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. Then we fell in love with the barn’s rustic yet modern aesthetic, the awesome bar, the lovely bridal cottage and the beautiful landscape of the farm fit our vision perfectly. We had 125 guests and it took a year and a half to plan.’

Today I am taking you to Sunny Costa Rica for the gorgeous wedding of Alessandra and David who were married on 7th June 2024 at Pangas beach club. This tropical wedding is a wedding full of love, emotion, a stunning backdrop, along with some seriously stunning flowers and decoration. This destination wedding is super chill and totally perfect, the tropical flowers with the pops of colour really stand out against the beach and the greenery and add a gorgeous fun element to the day. The soft evening lighting is so pretty, the fairy lights and the candles look amazing, what a perfectly gorgeous wedding. Big thanks to planner Mil Besos Costa Rica and to the photographer Adri Mendez Photography
Alassandra and David’s wedding was a stunning celebration of love, family, and beautiful details. The couple chose bright, bold floral accents that set the tone for the day, beginning with their invitation suite.

Over the past few years, weddings have evolved beyond a single day into full, multi-day celebrations. It’s a beautiful shift that allows more time to connect, but it also introduces extra moving parts. With each added event comes another round of decisions, and the guest count is where things can get complicated.
When you’re juggling different budgets, venues, and expectations across several days, it’s normal to be torn about who makes the list. That pressure to include everyone and still stay within your means can creep in fast. Here’s what a handful of industry pros have to say about navigating guest count guilt.
Navigating Guest Count Guilt

Start with a set of rules
Though it’s not the most fun task, setting ground rules early can make everything that follows clearer. Whether it’s agreeing to only invite people you’ve both met or limiting plus-ones, having shared guidelines gives you something to come back to when decisions get tricky.
Irene Katzias, Wedding Planner at Irene + Co Events, suggests, “Establish general rules that each guest must meet, such as only inviting those who are connected to both individuals getting married. For example, invite the immediate family and close friends first, and then, based on the RSVPs received, invite additional guests as space allows. Understanding the boundaries you have as a couple will help you if you establish them in advance.”
Taking a structured approach like this can make those tougher decisions less personal and more clear-cut.
Amos Gott, Owner and Chief Event Architect at AmosEvents, adds, “Some couples also set a time-based rule, such as if they haven’t seen them in a year, they’re not close enough to attend one of the most intimate days of your lives. It’s not harsh, just honest, and that honesty keeps your guest list manageable.”
These rules are there to support you, not box you in. When questions inevitably come up (like whether to invite a distant cousin or college friend you haven’t seen in years), you’ll have a framework that helps you decide with confidence instead of guilt.
