the bride got it right- tradition along with a sleeve.
reminiscent of the gowns of the 1950's- the dress maketh not the bride.
a traditional dress does not make for a traditional wife.
simplicity can be stunning.
less than - makes it more than.
& a beautiful woman never wants less for a beloved sister-
Pippa Middleton
as much can be said of a bouquet- the yard by yard sort should be an anathema.
size is not everything-in everything.
Tradition-
& a sleeve.
details count.
guests-though never meant to out shine the bride-must do their part to make things beautiful.

the flowers-inspired by nature,
trees do nicely.
scale is everything.

one can only Hope a return to elegance & tradition-
at least during the wedding is trending.
TRH Prince William, Duke of Cambridge & Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, leave The Abbey as husband and wife.
