Five ways to host a Lady Whistledown-approved wedding
It’s a trend that wedding stationery favourites Tree of Hearts predicted at the start of the year, and with just days to go until the new release they have already seen a 60 per cent increase in searches for Regency-inspired stationery.
1. Choose a Regency-era venue
“If you’re at the very early stages of your planning and you’re venue hunting, why not consider a Regency-era wedding venue - or better yet, one of the many UK filming destinations?” said Lisa. “A big grand great hall is a perfect setting for a traditional wedding breakfast!”
2. Utilise a Regency Blue colour palette
“The soft but striking pastel blue is a perfect wedding colour palette to base your big day around. You can be as subtle or as bold as you like with a colour scheme, whether you bring it in early for your save the dates and then again as table runners on the day, or make it a key part of the day with bridesmaids wearing Regency Blue dresses.”
3. Regency fashion, hair and make-up
“Whether it’s your wedding dress or the bridal party, be inspired by the Regency era’s love of big dresses and big hair. Daphne’s iconic auburn hair rocked some gorgeous hairstyles - all perfect for your wedding day.”
4. Handwritten notes
“Of course in Bridgerton there is no Whatsapp or emails just Lady Whisteldown’s handwritten messages, you could add a personal touch to your big day with handwritten invitations, thank you cards or wedding favours. You don’t need to write an essay, but a few personalised lines can really mean a lot to guests.”
5. Music and entertainment
“The Bridgerton playlist was one of the show’s biggest hits and we’re expecting a few more chart toppers over the next week as the second series kicks off. A string quartet is a great nod to the Regency-era, and when they play modern songs, it’s always a hit with guests who can try to guess the tune!”
