Diamonds are a girl’s best friend you say? Well, Ekaterina’s pearl choker necklace from Vivienne Westwood is clearly a woman’s best friend. The bride paired her pearl choker necklace with an off-the-shoulder gown and she is a total vision! Ekaterina & Rhys married at The Four Seasons in Hampshire with a traditional vibe and extravagant wedding flowers. The handfasting ceremony was performed by Recommended supplier, Caz the Celebrant. The evening began with a golden sunset and toasts to unconditional love! Capturing all of this is the incredible Recommended supplier, Matt Penberthy Photography.

Having all our special family and friends in one place for the whole day made our wedding so memorable.

Ekaterina & Rhys

Pearl Choker Necklace

Ekaterina & Rhys' whole wedding at The Four Seasons is a complete masterpiece! There are several works of art in this day we HAVE to talk more about!  Let's start with the bridal look! Ekaterina wore a Vivienne Westwood pearl choker necklace paired with an off-the-shoulder gown. Talk about Greek goddess! For the reception, the bride had a wedding reception outfit change into a short wedding dress with plenty of pearl accessories! The couple's favourite moment of the whole day was seeing each other at the end of the aisle, and with those literally stunning wedding outfits, who can blame them?

Pretty Lavish Bridesmaid Dresses

The couple's first step in planning their wedding was deciding on the venue. After that, and deciding on The Four Seasons, Ekaterina & Rhys were inspired by the traditional British wedding vibe. They went with the usual countryside wedding, which involved tons of nature and extravagant floral arrangements. Although, to keep it all a bit more contemporary they added a few twists to the styling! Ekaterina & Rhys also had pops of colour from the Pretty Lavish bridesmaid dresses in pink to a floor-filling live wedding band (which played their first dance song, Your Song by Elton John) and luxe aisle decorations.

No paparazzi, please! Ask guests to keep their phones pocketed with an unplugged ceremony sign

Our advice would be to plan in advance, stay open-minded with any advice from suppliers and enjoy every step of planning together.
