Ever since Bridgerton first graced our screens, many have dreamt of stepping into the Regency-era romance and sophistication of the world created by Julia Quinn and brought to life by Netflix.
If you're enchanted by the idea of a wedding inspired by the elegant balls, beautiful gardens, and the timeless romance of the Bridgerton series, you're in the right place! Here's how to bring your Regency dreams to life and be the talk of the ton on your big day.
Bridgerton inspired wedding venue
Choosing the right venue is essential to capture the Bridgerton vibes. Look for historical estates, manor houses, or botanical gardens that exude 19th-century charm – we’re lucky to be spoilt for choice in England! Think grand ballrooms, opulent staircases, and lush gardens.
If a historical venue isn't possible, consider a venue that can be transformed with the right décor. Draping, chandeliers, and antique furnishings can help create the regency-era atmosphere, or you can take inspiration from the series and opt for a garden wedding complete with marquees.
Bridgerton inspired wedding invitations
Your invitations are the first glimpse your guests will have of your themed wedding, so make them count. We recommend going for classic, elegant designs with calligraphy, wax seals, and thick, luxurious paper. You may also want to incorporate pastel colours and floral patterns reminiscent of the Regency period.
The language used in the invitation can also reflect the era, perhaps with a touch of playful formality to transport your guests back in time. You can even pick specific quotes from the series or start your invitations with “Dearest Gentle Reader” to set the Bridgerton tone from the start.
Bridgerton inspired wedding attire
For the bride, think empire waist gowns with delicate lace and intricate embroidery. For accessories, long gloves, pearl jewellery, and a vintage-inspired veil can complete the look. We’ve put together a detailed blog on how to go about picking the perfect Bridgerton inspired wedding dress – you can read that here.
The groom can embrace the regency style too with a tailored morning suit, cravat, and waistcoat. The Bridgerton men certainly looked dashing, and your groom will too! Bridesmaids in pastel dresses with floral accents and groomsmen in tailored suits will tie the theme together perfectly.
Bridgerton inspired wedding flowers
Flowers play a huge role in a Bridgerton-themed wedding; the more the better! Begin with a lush, overflowing bouquet for the bride, featuring classic blooms such as roses, peonies, wisteria, and hydrangeas. These flowers not only evoke the beauty of the regency period but also add a soft, romantic touch to your overall aesthetic. They smell divine too!
The colour palette should be soft and romantic — think blush, lavender, pale blue, and creamy whites. These colours can be woven throughout your floral arrangements, from the bridal bouquet to the centrepieces. Consider adding accents of greenery to enhance the natural beauty and provide a rich backdrop for the delicate flowers.
Bridgerton inspired wedding music
The music at your wedding can transport your guests right into the world of Bridgerton. Consider hiring a string quartet to play classical pieces during the ceremony and cocktail hour. For the reception, you could mix in some modern songs played in a classical style, much like the series does with its soundtrack. This blend of old and new can create a magical atmosphere, plus it’s so much fun to hear your favourite tunes reimagined as romantic classics!
Bridgerton inspired wedding decor
Décor is where you can truly bring the Bridgerton world to life. Think chandeliers, candelabras, and ornate mirrors. Gold and silver accents can add a touch of regency opulence. For the tables, you could choose fine China, crystal glassware, and elaborate floral centrepieces. Don’t forget the small touches like lace table runners and antique picture frames too!
Bridgerton inspired wedding food
Your menu should reflect the elegance of the regency era, a good option to consider is a sit-down dinner with courses inspired by 19th-century cuisine. Delicate finger sandwiches, rich soups, roasted meats, and decadent desserts can create a luxurious dining experience. For drinks, champagne and classic cocktails (or mocktails) will always be welcome. A traditional English tea service with scones, clotted cream, and jam could also be a delightful addition, particularly if you’re hosting a more intimate gathering.
Bridgerton inspired wedding entertainment
If you’re going all out on your Bridgeton themed wedding, you can include some regency-era entertainment for your guests to enjoy. You could hire actors to perform as characters from Bridgerton, organise a traditional dance like a waltz or quadrille, or if you're having an outdoor wedding, you could also set up lawn games such as croquet or badminton for an afternoon of genteel fun.
Bridgerton inspired wedding photography
Your wedding photos should capture the timeless elegance of your Bridgerton-themed wedding, so it’s important to choose a photographer who understands your vision and can capture the romantic, dreamy quality of the day. For some extra fun, why not bring in regency-inspired props like parasols, vintage books, and fans into your photos to enhance the theme – these are great for your guests to enjoy too and will definitely create photos you’ll want to frame in your home!
