1. Yi Jin and Ginny
This stunning gown is a classic wedding gown with a twist; a simple trumpet silhouette in a lush satin fabric. The detailing on the bust of the dress elevates it into something exquisite, by adding ruching and severe angles to the normally subdued sweetheart neckline, it gives the gown a modern edge allowing the bride to shine with minimal make-up and a simple tied up hair do.

This crossover gown looks simple enough but the deep ‘v’ neckline, paired with a plunging back, adds a subtle allure to this effortless gown. Paired with an understated train and you have a beautiful, unadorned, fuss-free gown that can take you from day to night. Wear your hair up to show off that back and accessorise with delicate jewelry.

What looks at first sight to be a modest A-line gown with a shallow ‘v’ neckline, it dips low at the back giving this seemingly demure gown some ‘wow’ factor. It’s quintessential long train pairs seamlessly with the tulle cathedral veil, delicate jewellery and fun, bright bouquet.

9. Megan and Michael
This gown stands out in its simplicity. Who would think an understated sheath silhouette in nude could pack such a punch - but it is daring in its minimalism, the neutral shade being a refreshing alternative to the classic white. The elegant cut allows the bride to shine, accessorising only with a graceful cathedral veil and statement bouquet.
