An urban-chic, industrial venue or modern minimalist city setting. It’s a fashion-forward, black-tie affair, with an edgy vibe and oodles of white blooms with clean-cut greenery... and you walk down the aisle in one of these stunners. Editor's tips Think carefully about who you invite to join your shopping entourage. Too many opinions can be overwhelming, which will only lead to confusion and be less helpful than you'd hoped. Stick to the select few whose opinions you couldn't do without and they'll steer you right. It’s easy to get swept up in all the gorgeous gowns on offer, so how to avoid busting the budget and before that, how to settle on one? There’s a general rule of thumb out there on the internet that says you should allocate five to 10 per cent of your overall budget to the dress but it really does depend on what you feel comfortable with and whether this is one of your non-negotiable elements. We recommend above all that you’re realistic about what you want and the rest will fall into place. For example, if you have lots of detailing and heavy beading, an acceptance that this isn’t going to come cheap will stand you in good stead, it’s then up to you whether you want to compromise. 62
