It is here at last! The wedding that everyone has been talking about! This Friday, the 29th April, will see HRH Prince William marry his long term girlfriend, Kate Middleton in a wedding that could be straight out of a fairy tale. Up and down the country, people will be celebrating the occasion in a truly traditional manner with bunting, flags and street parties.  Red, white and blue it seems is the colour of the moment.

So what if you are planning to marry your own Prince Charming in your own “Royal” wedding this summer? With retro style and patriotism, the watch words of the moment, a red, white and blue theme is the only way to go. Now you don't have to have to go all out and have the flags flying in your home town (unless you want to that is!) but you can still have a “Royal” wedding with a nod to the patriotic in the accessories that you choose.

Bring in the red, white and blue with white bridesmaids' dresses and white bridesmaids' shoes finished with ruby red or navy blue sashes and trims. The Beatrice bridesmaids dress is ideal or what about the Olivia bridesmaids dress (one of our best selling bridesmaids' dresses with matching shoes and headbands)?

Add a bit of colour to your own ensemble with ruby red roses and blue cornflowers in your bouquet and don't forget the requisite blue bridal garter!

As for the venue, with the wealth of retro British accessories available on the high street and internet at the moment, you can go as patriotic as you like. Whether you want to deck the halls in union jacks and bunting or whether you just want to add a hint of British chic with a few vintage union jack accessories in the crockery and table settings, the world's your oyster. Check out Not on the High Street or Emma Bridgewater for ideas.

At the end of the day don't get too hung up on the details. All that matters is that you are the princess in your own “Royal” wedding and we are sure you will be!
