From this season’s sharpest bridal suit and a timelessly romantic scent to a starstruck veil and the perfect wedding-day boots, here are ten things we absolutely love for spring/summer 2018
Love struck
London milliner Awon Golding has included a fabulous birdcage veil in her bridal collection. It features crystal hearts framing the eyes – the perfect starry way to express those feelings beyond words when you say I do. awongolding.com
Pucker up
This sweet Kiss Statement Charm Necklace spells it out. The letters are studded with black spinels and the charms hang on a gold vermeil silver chain. It makes the perfect bridesmaid gift, or wear it yourself to throw out a hint; £150. lolarose.co.uk
Just the ticket
Upgrades here we come with this pair of smart white leather luggage tags announcing the good news. Part of a lovely range of wedding accessories from Paperchase, they make a great going-away gift for the wedding couple; £18.50. paperchase.co.uk
Pearl bright
Sloane Street jeweller Kiki McDonough is best known for her creative use of coloured gemstones, but her pearl collection is perfect timeless style for brides. This diamond knot design set in white gold would make an elegant wedding-day finishing touch; £1,700. kiki.co.uk

Into the woods
We love Penhaligon’s for its timeless English scents, many of which are based around traditional florals. Our pick for the season ahead is Bluebell, just like a walk in the woods; £134 for 100ml eau de toilette. penhaligons.com
Suits you
Bridal trousers have been the hot number on the bridal runways for a couple of seasons now, but our pick for the season ahead is this ultra-cool pantsuit from Savin London. Sharp, sexy and eminently wearable afterwards. savinlondon.com
Kinky boots
Part of Freya Rose’s wonderful capsule collection, these limited edition Jasmine boots will add a spring to your step, especially as they have glittering mother-of-pearl and brass inlaid block heels. They are made of butter soft leather, with only 50 pairs made in each colour. Shown here in taupe, and also available in black and white; £495. freyarose.com
Lilac time
One of the colour stories of the season ahead, cool lilac is not for everyone, but we love the idea of adding shades of mauve to the wedding-day feast. This gorgeous tiered cake is dressed to impress and was created by London baker extraordinaire Elizabeth’s Cake Emporium. elizabethscakeemporium.com
Time up
Discreet and elegant, Balmain’s Madrigal Mini II features a silvered finish and lovely mother of pearl face with white embellishment. The perfect wedding-day timekeeper, it’s available from Balmain international stockists; POA. balmainwatches.com
