Bel Powley
Living out her dream, actress Bel Powley chose a Miu Miu dress for her wedding, a brand she's been working closely with for years.

To complete her bridal ensemble, Bel opted for long pearl earrings by Sophie Bille Brahe. Later that evening, the bride also changed into her after-party look that was inspired by a design from Miu Miu’s spring 2021 collection.

Allyson Shiffmane
Vogue Scandinavia's print editor, Allyson Shiffmane, had no hesitation when choosing her wedding dress.

The collaboration resulted in a stunning corset dress with black ribbon detailing, an idea that resonated perfectly with Allyson's vision. Keeping things simple, she chose white Miu Miu ballet flats and her mother's tennis bracelet for jewelry. Her second look for the day was a sheer dress by Swedish designer Mega Mikaela.

Genevieve Abell
Model Genevieve Abell found her Office Seven wedding dress by chance, but instantly knew it was the one. Even though the bride initially didn't plan on wearing a veil, a gorgeous floor sweeping bow from Kamperett changed her mind. To complete her effortlessly chic French-inspired wedding look, Genevieve chose ballet flats but eventually kicked them off to enjoy the celebration barefoot.

Louisa Kirk-Duncan
In curating her wedding ensemble, creative consultant Louisa Kirk-Duncan took an unconventional route. She started by investing in Loewe sandals with an eye-catching balloon applique. When it came to her wedding gown, Louisa was all about breaking from tradition. Her heart was set on a cream-colored minidress with balloon sleeves from a special collection by Mango. To accessorize, she chose a spiral earring from Jacquemus, another from Chanel, and a chic white Prada bag.

For her two-day Berlin wedding, content creator Nisi showcased three gorgeous outfits. The highlight was a head-to-toe "Old Celine" look for the registry office ceremony, featuring a white dress with a black fishnet insert from the brand's Spring/Summer 2013 collection.

For dinner, Nisi opted for a combination of a Cortana skirt, Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini top, Chanel pumps, and jewelry from Sophie Bille Brahe. For the party, Nisi changed into a lace-trimmed dress from Beaufille, which she styled with Chanel earrings and white sandals from The Row.
