The Bridgerton theme is utterly fabulous. From regency-inspired accessories and colourful gardens to blooming bodices, couples are loving the drama and whimsical details. Regency blue was the go-to colour during this period and can be incorporated into your table décor, stationery, dresses and cake.

We adore calligraphy here at Your West Midlands Wedding, so rather than having your place names printed, why not have them written out beautifully and perhaps paired with a literary quote from one of your favourite books? You could even place these in envelopes and have them sealed with a personalised wax seal.

When thinking of Bridgerton most of us think of wisteria. Present at most of the balls in the series, this beautiful flower is a must-have if you’re planning a regal celebration. This can be placed above your tables for a dramatic effect, used as an arch for your entrance or placed behind your top table.

“The Bridgerton look is all about largerthan-life floral designs. For example, take this wedding at Hawkestone Hall (above), it’s the perfect backdrop. Couple that with large floral centrepieces and a full floral top table and it won’t just be Lady Whistledown talking about your day!” – Kristie from Sorella Florist & Event Stylist.

Your cake should be something that your guests stare at and say wow! Incorporate your chosen colour scheme, flowers from the period and hints of gold to make it look luxurious and straight out of a Bridgerton novel.
