The dress: Be a storybook bride with a structured bodice that’s either strapless or features a sweetheart neckline, worn with a stunning full skirt in satin or tulle. A long veil is a must for the classic bride! Princess for a day? You bet.

• The flowers: Roses, roses, roses! Red, cream or pale pink blooms in a tightly structured bouquet will complement a princess gown perfectly and reflect the formality of your day. Or go for a cascading bouquet shape with trailing foliage.
• The cars: You just can’t go past a fleet of Rolls-Royce or Bentleys to get you and your bridal party to the church – they’re as classic as wedding transport gets. Choose silver, cream, or champagne-coloured cars – sedans or limousines are available.
• The cake: Traditional white marzipan icing with fresh or iced flowers adorning the top – a classic cake may be round or square in shape and have one or several tiers. True traditionalists will want to stick to fruit cake, but other classic options include vanilla sponge or butter cake.
