4 Royal Wedding Ideas To Recreate

How has it been one whole year since the Royal Wedding?! And while Harry and Meghan are getting snuggled up with their beautiful new baby boy Archie, we thought we would celebrate their anniversary by sharing some inspiration images for recreating four iconic elements of the Royal Wedding ideas. Featuring a whole host of the handpicked suppliers from our directory, The List.

Well, we have to start with one of the biggest focal points of the celebrations. THAT floral arch. And you can recreate this one quite beautifully with almost any venue you choose. Decorate a beautiful doorway and have your guests enter under the lush foliage. Or frame your nuptials with a photographic stunner of an arch. Remember to work with your florist to play with scale, textures and even scents. Imagine guests breezing through an arch of heavenly scented jasmine? So many possibilities. We also have this post if you want some more ideas.

The Duchess of Sussex chose beautifully natural makeup and hair for her big day. Perfect if you prefer a natural look, or simply don't like the feeling of heavy makeup. This look is all about enhancing your natural features and using soft, warm colours. As for hair, the style chosen by Meghan perfectly complimented her look with a soft, wispy updo that looked both incredibly elegant and comfortable. Although I am sure she ended up discarding 6000 bobby pins that evening like the rest of us. A picture of Meghan's natural beauty sent our Instagram into a frenzy, as 24,000 of our followers conquered she looked flawless.

Meghan's elegant gown was designed by Clare Waight Keller, artistic director of Givenchy. The open bateau neckline beautifully framed her shoulders. Since the Royal Wedding last year, similar styles have been popping up in Bridal Boutiques all over the country with brides favouring the elegant simplicity.

Prince Harry had a fantastic bond moment emerging from the wedding reception in black tie attire, with his beautiful bride. Only to drive off together in a one-of-a-kind E-Type Concept Zero Jaguar with the top down. If you're leaving your guests to party and slipping away with your beau or simply just moving from venue to venue in style, then allowing a bit of budget for bride or groom to drive off in a fantasy car is certainly one way to exit in supreme style.

So there you have it, four incredible Royal Wedding ideas to steal for your own big day with inspiration brought to you by the best in the wedding industry via The List.
