The white wedding has earned its place in the traditional Western society, but in recent years, more and more couples have deviated from tradition. Sometimes, you just want something a little different. Not a lot different, just a little.
The champagne-coloured wedding dress does that effortlessly. You don’t have to go all out with bright and bold colours if that’s not your style. You can easily just veer a little off path and opt for the colour that will make you look and feel as sophisticated (yet fun) as a glass of bubbly.
Here are our favourites to gather some inspiration from.

Love her or hate her, Emily Ratajkowski has style. Her chic, seemingly effortless silhouette was echoed on her wedding day in 2018. True to herself, Ratajkowski wed her…
Traditionally in a heterosexual marriage a woman wears a dress while the groom wears a suit, the expansion of marriage rights across the world and de-gendering of clothing has led to a surge in suits for all genders in the wedding party.
A suit can look smart, well-put together and well-fitting if you follow very simple rules, otherwise it can easily become a bit of a mess.
Here are our tips for making sure you look smart on your big day.
Do not wait until the last minute
Although it might not be as intricate as a traditional wedding gown, finding exactly what you want in a suit and getting it fitted is unlikely to be a quick affair.
You’ll have a lot of other things to do in the run up to the wedding so you don’t want this to be a rush.
Do not avoid the tailor
A tailored suit can with the perfect fit is incredibly important. If you’re getting a suit made then this will be part of the process. Even if you decide to buy off the rack, take it to a tailor. There is always something that can be tweaked.
Do not go overboard on accessories
Since suits are simple ensembles, personalising them is tricky to get right. A big way to make your suit reflect your personality is through accessories but be careful not to go overboard and include all of them. Be judicious, a fun pair of socks is a good idea but having flashy suspenders, socks and a pocket square could make you look more clown and less classy.
Choose the right shoes
The wrong shoe can throw off the whole outfit. Make sure the colour works, they are comfortable and speak to the style you’re going for rather than just picking out the most “formal” option you can find.
If you’re going to wear heels with your suit, consider this when getting your pants leg tailored.
Getting creative
If you have a look around there are beautiful colourful, patterned suits out there for the brave and bold. While these can work for the right people, make sure it is something you want and are comfortable with. Wedding photos will be around forever, so ensure that even an exciting suit reflects you and your personality and is not just something you chose on a whim.
