We love a traditional wedding, like that of celebrities Pixie Lott and Brooklyn Beckham. Both opted for more sartorial choices when it came to their wedding which will always be both timeless and cool. It's no wonder traditional weddings are still a popular choice for many.  So, if you're inspired by classic style and tradition this roundup is for you. From Old Hollywood, family heritage, gospel choirs and more, you're in for a treat.

Classic Hedsor House Wedding 

Emily and Jake's ceremony at Hedsor House was giving traditional wedding vibes for days. The stunning grounds of the Georgian house made for the perfect backdrop. The couple has been together since they were sixteen. This made their magical winter wedding all the more romantic. With Recommended supplier Jason Mark Harris Photography capturing the timeless styling, mistletoe and fairy lights, we absolutely adored this ceremony. 

Navy Blue Bridesmaid Dresses 

Old Hollywood Glamour will never go out of style. Neither will Olivia and Brian's traditional wedding. Taking place at Recommended venue Elmore Court, the whole ceremony was relaxed yet sophisticated. The 1930s-style navy blue wedding bridesmaid dresses added to the vibe perfectly. So did the gorgeous stationery from Recommended supplier Papier. The smoke bomb photoshoot didn't hurt, either.

Foxhill Manor Intimate Wedding 

Who doesn't love a kilt? Certainly not Aimee and Gordon. The couple gathered their loved ones at Foxhill Manor for an intimate, traditional wedding. With heritage in Scotland and New Zealand, the wedding included florals, foliage, whisky and barrels. What a combo! Recommended supplier Rebecca Carpenter Photography captured all of the intricate and meaningful details. The glorious bridesmaid dresses from Recommended supplier TH&TH Bridesmaids certainly added to the style and elegance.

Euridge Manor Wedding With Champagne Tower 

You know you've done a traditional wedding right when it gives off Bridgerton vibes. That's why Anneka and Scott's stunning ceremony made the list. Taking place at Euridge Manor, the whole day oozed glamour, luxury, and love. The couple said their I-do's right in front of sparkling blue water. Luckily, Recommended supplier, Jo Bradbury Photography, was able to capture it all perfectly. Lucky for us, that is! We could look at these pictures all day...

Gospel Choir Wedding at Summer Celebration

Debbie & Kerrim's traditional wedding gave us all the gospel choir greatness. If you're a fan of romance films (and let's be real, who isn't?) then this one's for you. The ceremony embodied British wild garden flowers and countryside elegance to a T. Captured by Recommended supplier Jo Bradbury Wedding Photographer, the natural and delicate aesthetic shone through. 

Oleg Cassini Wedding Dress and DIY Bouquets 

Glamorous takes a new form in Rochelle and Nathan's traditional wedding. The bride's strapless Oleg Cassini wedding dress was to die for. As was her fitted evening gown! The classic ceremony was filled with personal touches, style and love. The reception was full of heartwarming speeches and super fun games. What's not to love? 

Made With Love Dress & Greenery Decor 

Mediterranean meets black tie? Check. Gorgeous Made With Love dress with an overskirt from her mother's old wedding dress? Check. Stunning traditional wedding at Middleton Lodge? Check. Theanna & Nico epitomised monochrome realness. The groom was even sporting a stylish white double-breasted tux! Not to mention the show-stopping cloud of greenery. Classy, elegant and stylish. We're completely obsessed! 

Catholic Wedding Ceremony 

A Catholic ceremony, classic black tie wedding reception at Syon Park, Ghanaian drummers, tables named after Drake songs... Sounds like a traditional wedding embodying our ethos. Your day, your way. It's safe to say that Miranda and Jonas did just that. With love, fun and fashion might we add! Just listen to the variety of music genres offered. Ghanaian Hiplife, 90s RnB, Hip Hop and Funky House... Even the two-left-feeters in the crowd had the times of their lives. 

Babington House Wedding With White Bridesmaid Dresses 

Strikingly stylish doesn't even come close to describing Alexandra and Samuel's traditional wedding. Focusing on the celebrations, the guests were in for a huge treat. The couple used the venue's space perfectly. A ceremony under the Birch Tree, cocktail reception on the lawn, dinner in The Orangery, and speeches outside the steps. Furthermore, Alexandra's change from a Pronovias dress to a ba&sh Paris was jaw-droppingly good. The couple knew they did a wedding party right. Guests were passed out around the venue as the sun came out. Nice one, guys! I wish I was a guest at that wedding...

Fusion Wedding With Layered Tulle Wedding Dress 

Iranian-inspired weddings in the Cotswolds don't come by often. That's what makes Meilca & Jasper's traditional wedding even more special. Bold blooms, colour clashes and a sugar ceremony certainly helped, too. Lest we forget the THREE bridal outfits! There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Nor was there a bad present, thanks to Recommended supplier The Wedding Shop. Recommended Recommended photographer Harry Michael also ensured the magic of the wedding seeped through the photos, and boy, did he succeed! The glorious backdrop of Recommended venue Elmore Court helped, too.

What a traditional wedding roundup! We're captivated by all of these weddings, and hope you are too!
