Tips for updating your bridal look after postponing to a different season - with Bijou Bridal Boutique

Brunette bride in wedding dress with ivory faux fur wrap by Richard Designs

I bought a lightweight dress for my spring wedding, but we've now postponed to winter. How do I accessorise it to give a festive feel and keep the chill off?

My heart goes out to all the couples who were ready to celebrate their wedding and have had to postpone because of the pandemic. If you're now planning to tie the knot during the festive season, there are ways to keep your gorgeous spring gown while keeping the goosebumps at bay! Adding some stylish faux fur can give you a luxurious winter-themed look. Who doesn't love the feel of faux fur to keep you warm on the chilliest of days?

The boutique proudly stocks a lovely collection of jackets and wraps from Richard Designs. Available in ivory, honey and charcoal hues, you can find the perfect option to transform your gown from spring to winter without compromising on style. Just add cosy log fires, twinkling fairylights and mulled wine!

Why intimate weddings might be becoming the celebration of choice in 2026

Intimate weddings are becoming increasingly popular at The Milner York in York, as modern couples move away from large traditional guest lists in favour of smaller, more personal celebrations. Wedding coordinator Imogen D'Cruz highlights a growing demand for private dining receptions, bespoke ceremonies and extended wedding weekends that allow couples and guests more meaningful time together. Couples are prioritising quality experiences, from tailored menus and personalised décor to multi-day stays that include welcome dinners and post-wedding brunches. While budgets are being reallocated rather than reduced, the focus is on creating memorable moments with close family and friends. This shift reflects a broader 2026 wedding trend towards flexibility, authenticity and relaxed, experience-led celebrations.

Costs such as new outfits, travel and accommodation, and gifts mean the overall expense of attending can quickly add up. Duncan Fortune, Head of Commercial at Tesco Bank, says: "Wedding season can be a significant expense for households.
