The proposal
Andrew had made a special effort to make sure Adrienne kept Saturday morning free. As usual white dresses , Adrienne went for a walk with her friend Lauren before breakfast but said they needed to hurry because Andrew was adamant that she get back quickly. "Lauren actually joked and said 'Maybe he's going to propose! We both cracked up," she says. When she got home Andrew had packed the car and they went to one of her favourite places on the Warriewood headland. He had packed a feast for breakfast and as they ate overlooking the beach, Andrew pulled a ring out and asked her to marry him. "I cried the ugly cry, black party dresses black party dresses" she says.

The wedding day
The Mediterranean themed day was filled with thoughtful touches and surprises. Perhaps the most unique aspect of the day was the bridesmaid's dresses dresses which were made as a surprise in memory of Andrew's sister Deanne. She was a talented designer and died tragically in a car accident. So Adrienne decided she wanted dresses based on Deanne's design. She only had a photo of the dress which had been donated at a charity auction so she had to gather a group of people who could recreate it. "The end result was breathtaking - Andrew had no idea that Dea's dresses were being created behind the scenes and it was a very moving experience for everyone," says Adrienne. Another surprise was a Samba performance at the reception with dancers and a 12 piece drumming extravaganza. "It was WOW! The drummers sounded amazing and the girls were just fabulous."

The dress
Adrienne wore a white strapless Maggie Sottero gown with a sweetheart neckline. It featured a corset back and a beaded embellishment below a ruched bust. It came from Abbey Bridal.

The cake
It was a three-tired caramel mud cake decorated with white fondant and icing flowers. It was made by Julie Barlow of Distinctive Cakes.

The photography
The photos were taken by Daniel Griffiths from Daniel Griffiths Photography.

The honeymoon
They went to Hayman Island.

Yes folks, today is the Royal Wedding day for Will and Kate. And of course the big question on everyone’s lips is ‘What will the bride wear? gold bridesmaid dresses gold bridesmaid dresses’ I can practically guarantee the miles of descriptive prose and full colour magazine pages that will be devoted to every detail of that dress .

Perhaps Kate and her dress designer will have taken inspiration from brides of yesteryear, having paid a visit to the exhibition I enjoyed recently at the Fashion Museum in Bath. The ‘What will she wear’ elegant wedding dresses exhibition is a celebration of wedding dresses wedding dresses from the museum’s collections and continues until January 2012, so you’ve no excuse not to visit if you’re looking for design ideas for your own dream wedding dress .

The dresses were displayed in no particular order with the bride from the 20s next to the bride of the surprisingly demure 60s although as 0are often inspired by historic costume it was not so easy to tell them apart. The high necked dress with delicate lace from the 70s looked distinctly Edwardian and the Alexander McQueen dress from 2010 had 18th century panier skirts.

If only those cases full of gorgeous gowns could tell their stories; the romance, the fluttering hearts, the courtship, the proposal and finally the big day. For many of those 1 the owners are known and there might even be a newspaper clipping to give the account of the wedding, with full details of what the bride wore. For others, not much is known about the owners. On the walls of the exhibition were formal portraits of elegant and wealthy brides from the 1930s modelling their couture gowns from the House of Worth, in the studio setting surrounded by flowers.

Fashions for brides have been a reflection of the past and the present. A hundred years ago weddings were held in the morning, so a day dress was worn, but later they came to resemble evening wear with long trains as worn at court. Our teenage girls took it in turn to pick the one that they would choose for their wedding day and the dress above left is my daughter’s favourite. I was married not long after Diana and Fergie and like many brides was influenced by their full skirts, ruffles and lace. Now I think I might like to wear one of those elegant bias cut columns from the 30s. Which one would you choose celebrity wedding gowns celebrity wedding gowns?

So what will the bride wear? – we’ll find out soon enough but in the meantime, enjoy these lovely 2 of yesterday.

The What will she wear? exhibition is on display at the Fashion Museum in Bath until 8 January 2012.
