Top Wedding Trends from the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

We are still on a Royal Wedding high since Saturday after anticipating this wedding of the year for the past few months.  We love everything about it, from the decor, dress design, accessories that the Duchess of Sussex chosen, and all the romantic moments between her and Duke of Sussex.  Here are a few takeaways that we’ve learned from the wedding and see in the wedding trends coming up:
 Be true to yourself – We love the Duchess’s authentic style and being true to herself.  From hair and makeup, to her wedding gown and accessories.  Don’t try to make yourself look like a different person, but a better version of you on your wedding day.  You don’t have to follow the wedding dress trends if it doesn’t work with your body type.  Pick a dress that makes you feel confident in.  Hire a good makeup artist that you feel comfortable with and know how to beautify you.   You want to look natural in your photos and not regretting having too much makeup years after.

Create a focal point – Decor may be grander in scale at the Royal Wedding, but what you invested in will be shown in all your photos.  Invest in a focal point – whether it is the altar or the entryway where many photos will be taken.  Did you notice that there were using folding chairs for guests at the church? Maybe it’s something only professionals noticed.

Do things with intention – This is what we love most about the wedding of HRH Duke and Duchess of Sussex.  Everything is done with intention.  The flowers that were chosen for the Duchess’s bouquet had such deep meanings behind it. The Duke of Sussex handpicked some of his the flowers from a Kensington Palace garden, which included forget-me-nots, one of Princess Diana’s favourite flowers.  Portion of the flowers used at the ceremony were turned into handtied bouquets and delivered to patients at St. Joseph Hospice.

Veil or no veil
The veil of the Duchess had incorporated flowers from each of 53 commonwealth countries embroidered on it.  It added drama to her simplistic wedding gown.  Whether you are only wearing it for the ceremony only or the whole day, it will complete your bridal look.

Not every villa is right.
Not every view translates into a flawless wedding.

In this 2.5-min tour, I’m breaking down the venues everyone talks about.

Winning WPIC Destination Wedding Planner of the Year feels especially meaningful this year. This journey started with my own wedding in Italy 16 years ago. With such a distinguished panel of judges, this recognition carries a quiet weight — one that I hold with deep gratitude.

Behind every destination wedding week abroad is not just design and logistics, but a family making it possible.

To my husband — who holds everything together at home while I travel — and to the grandmas who step in with endless love… this honour belongs to you too.

To my clients: thank you for trusting me with your most intimate celebrations, far from home. To be welcomed into your wedding world abroad is the greatest privilege of my work.

And to my fellow planners and creative partners around the world — your generosity, collaboration, and kindness are what elevate this industry we love.

This award is shared. 🤍

This one feels different.

After years of building celebrations across cultures, borders, and generations, being recognised on a global stage that values integrity, craftsmanship, and intention means more than I can say. No politics. No pay-to-play. Just real work, seen and acknowledged by peers who understand what goes into every detail behind the scenes.

WEMA represents the kind of industry I believe in — inclusive, global, and rooted in respect for both the craft and the people who pour their hearts into it.

Grateful to stand alongside wedding professionals around the world who continue to raise the bar with purpose, care, and authenticity.
