I’m thrilled to be sharing this most luxurious and ethical new bridal collection by Kate Beaumont today. Join me in falling head over heels for this beautifully fresh edit of Kate’s timeless designs, made with eco-conscious fabrics and customisable elements – all handmade in Sheffield for modern, individual brides.

I couldn’t be happier to share these bridesmaids dresses with you, by Lucy at Six Stories. Proactively supporting victims of domestic abuse, empowering women and growing an incredibly successful brand, Lucy’s new collection is utterly gorgeous and comes in sizes 6-26.

The dresses are flattering, with supportive structure, sculpted silhouettes and thoughtful, body-first details including discreet breastfeeding-friendly options. Six Stories’ Signature Sculpt Black Dress Collection was created from thousands of pieces of customer feedback, and brings all the glam to winter bridesmaids in lush darker shades.

Imagine finding an ethical, artisan-made wedding dress and having it made to your exact measurements – for less than £1,000. We’re so often led to believe that we have to spend thousands for a designer dress, and even more for one that’s ethically made and sustainable, but a little detective work in the right places can uncover the most incredible modern wedding dresses.

Guess what? I have something wonderful to show you.

French designer bridal dress collection on Etsy by Faith Cauvain in Paris

Faith Cauvain is a wedding dress designer in Paris. Her creations are elegant, modern, and uniquely beautiful. Faith’s 2026 bridal collection – Paris, My Love – includes the stunning LYLIS gown – a finalist in the very highly sought-after Etsy Design Awards.

There’s something undeniably magical about a winter wedding, the crisp air, frosted landscapes and that quiet sense of romance that seems to hang in the stillness of the season. If you’re dreaming of a winter celebration that feels both elegant and ethereal a baby blue wedding theme might be your perfect match. Soft, serene and effortlessly romantic, this delicate hue captures the essence of winter skies and icy elegance — while bringing a touch of “something blue” to your day.

I loved reading Hitched’s wedding trends prediction for 2026, which landed in my inbox this morning. Taking inspiration from Bridgerton, a rise in stately home celebrations and a search for innovative, alternative wedding cakes, 2026 weddings are going to be so exciting! There’s one trend I’m waaaayyy out of sync with – and one conspicuously missing from the list! – but the rest of Zoe’s predictions are utterly fabulous. (I’ll leave the one I think is suspect until last!)

The latest Wedding Trends Report from leading wedding planning website Hitched reveals that weddings in 2026 are going to be more intentional and expressive than ever, full of meaningful experiences and some incredibly retro choices.
