However, somebody must have told Pippa that all eyes would be on her. She could not embarrass Kate with a sub-par wedding. Well, instead she shined. We know that you\u2019ve seen at least one photo of Pippa&#8217;s wedding by now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve been paying attention, you\u2019ll know about her dress, her flowers, how cute Princess Charlotte looked in her bridesmaid\u2019s dress, and how prohibitively expensive the whole thing was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/pippa-middleton-wedding-main.jpg\" alt=\"The new Mr. and Mrs. Matthews leaving St. Mark's Church, Englefield, after tying the knot on 20th May.\" width=\"720\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, it seems no expense was spared when Pippa married hedge fund manager, James Matthews, near her family home in Bucklebury, Berkshire. The total bill supposedly surpassed \u00a3300,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Certainly, the younger Middleton sister\u2019s nuptials paid homage to the traditional English country wedding. And perhaps, we hope, they signalled a return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stmarksenglefield.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/pippa-middleton-wedding-church.jpg\" alt=\"St Mark\u2019s Church in Englefield, Berkshire, where Pippa Middleton married James Matthews\" width=\"720\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Far from setting any new trends, Pippa instead ticked all the boxes of a truly classic English summer wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, for brides inspired by Pippa\u2019s style, we found five ways she brought back tradition. And, tips for how you can recreate it without the massive price tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>1) The Dress<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The moment photos of Pippa and James outside Englefield Parish Church surfaced everyone started talking about her dress. And who can blame them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pippa\u2019s wedding dress was an absolutely stunning top-to-toe lace A-line number, custom-made by British designer, Giles Deacon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its high neckline is heavily reminiscent of Grace Kelly\u2019s wedding dress when she married Prince Ranier of Monaco in 1956.&nbsp;Its cap sleeves and keyhole back detail, meanwhile, are more modern nods to current fashion trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/pippa-middleton-wedding-dress.jpg\" alt=\"The new Mrs Matthews' dress featured top-to-toe lace, a high neckline and cap sleeves\" width=\"720\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Emma Meek, of <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.missbush.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Miss Bush<\/a> bridal boutique in Ripley, Surrey, believes that Pippa\u2019s dress is in keeping with current fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHer wedding dress channels a lot of trends we\u2019ve seen emerging for an increasingly modest British look,\u201d Emma says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe great thing about the Middletons is that they\u2019re not fashion game-changers, they just remind us that it can actually be cool to have a classic British wedding\u2026 A lot of the brides who come to our shop are already looking for similar dresses to Pippa\u2019s.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emma also agrees that images circulating online promoting edgier wedding trends are misleading. The good old traditional English wedding is still alive and well and is here to stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/dress-collage.jpg\" alt=\"Clockwise from top left: &quot;7069&quot; by Jesus Peiro; &quot;Nikol&quot; by Atelier Pronovias; &quot;Elvira&quot; by Atelier Pronovias; &quot;Castelao&quot; by Yolan Cris\" width=\"720\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, you cannot recreate Pippa\u2019s dress. Costing a reported \u00a340,000, the Giles Deacon creation was a one-off. But that doesn\u2019t mean that brides inspired by Pippa\u2019s style can\u2019t find their own version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emma recommends looking to designers such as Atelier Pronovias, Yolan Cris, and Jesus Peiro. Their current collections feature similarly modest, yet undeniably fashionable and timeless gowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>2) The Flowers<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>You might not even have noticed Pippa\u2019s bouquet at first glance. The dainty posy she\u00a0chose to carry was so small and almost entirely white.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it was perhaps not awe-inspiring, the flowers in Pippa\u2019s understated bouquet were almost entirely locally-grown British varieties. They were also in keeping with traditional wedding flowers <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what did Pippa\u2019s bouquet consist of? According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tarniawilliams.co.uk\/\">Tarnia Williams<\/a>, an independent florist in Pippa\u2019s home county of Berkshire, the bouquet included ivory peonies, sweet peas, freesias, wax flower, and pale pink astilbe with touches of thlaspi green bell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tarniawilliams.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/pippa-middleton-wedding-bouquet.jpg\" alt=\"A similar bouquet to Pippa's containing peonies and David Austin roses created by Tarnia Williams. Photo courtesy of Hannah McClune Photography.\" width=\"720\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tarnia says the bouquet and flower crowns were \u201cdelicately wired\u201d, which would naturally increase the cost. \u201cTo create this wired design is very time consuming, although wonderfully light to carry,\u201d she says. &#8220;The wires are necessary due to most of the flowers being so small and delicate.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recreating this bouquet doesn\u2019t have to be costly, however, if you\u2019re hoping to take your floral cues from Pippa. Tarnia suggests using oasis instead of wiring, and to use David Austin Patience roses if peonies are out of season. This would avoid hiking up costs by\u00a0importing your flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/flower-collage.jpg\" alt=\"Some of the flowers included in Pippa's bouquet: Sweet Pea; Pink Astilbe; Freesia; Peony\" width=\"720\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the bouquet\u2019s size, however, Tarnia says she wouldn\u2019t change a thing. \u201cI often tell my brides to be conscious of the size of their bouquets. I recommend keeping them within their frame\u2026 otherwise an oversize bouquet could compromise the beautiful dress and silhouette,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recreating this bouquet on a larger scale would only drive up the cost and would lose the delicate effect. Pippa did it perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>3) The Marquee<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s nothing more quintessentially British than a garden marquee wedding. However, Pippa and her new husband took that concept to the extreme. They spent an estimated \u00a3100,000 on this aspect of their day alone! They had a glass marquee erected in the garden of Pippa\u2019s parents\u2019 home in Bucklebury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/abbas-marquees-wedding-marquee-hire-somerset.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/Pippa-Middleton\/image21.jpg\" alt=\"A gorgeous example of a clearspan marquee, to create an inexpensive version of Pippa's reception space, provided by Somerset's Abbas Marquees\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The massive structure was large enough to fit their estimated 300 guests and was reportedly serviced by &#8220;ultra-luxury portaloos&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although marquee weddings are heavily traditional, Pippa and James certainly went the extra mile by having theirs constructed from glass. This is a costly thing to do, but one that made their reception venue stand out and which doubtless would have been impressive inside and out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/abbas-marquees-wedding-marquee-hire-somerset.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/pipp-middleton-wedding-marquees.jpg\" alt=\"Top: Part clear and part lined marquee\nBottom: Clearspan Frame marquee\nBoth by Abbas Marquees, Somerset\" width=\"720\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>But giving your own wedding celebrations a similar setting doesn\u2019t have to cost the earth. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abbasmarquees.co.uk\/\">Abbas Marquees<\/a> of Somerset is just one marquee company already offering alternatives, such as Clear Span Frame marquees, which their representative, Hayley Beard, says are already a popular choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese are made from clear plastic rather than glass but still look stunning,\u201d she assures. \u201cYou can also have a clear roof and windows over the dance floor leaving the dining section lined with chandeliers and fairy lights,\u201d Hayley advises, \u201c[And] pea lights or festoon lights can be placed along the framework to add some lighting at night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/abbas-marquees-wedding-marquee-hire-somerset.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/Pippa-Middleton\/image13.jpg\" alt=\"A gorgeous example of a clearspan marquee, to create an inexpensive version of Pippa's reception space, provided by Somerset's Abbas Marquees\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Marquees are ever-popular due to their size and versatility, and endless options to decorate them both inside and out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pippa and James\u2019 choice to host their reception in a glass marquee, while not exactly trend-setting, could still see the ushering in of increased enthusiasm for this wedding tradition and put a new twist on an old classic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>4) The Bridesmaids and Pageboys<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not often anymore that you see bridal parties almost entirely comprised of children, as opposed to close friends of the bride and groom. Yes, the American tradition of a (sometimes absurdly large) group of the bride\u2019s best friends has more or less become the norm here in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Pippa and James chose to firmly return to the British tradition of only having the young children of close family and friends play the roles of bridesmaids and pageboys. Prince George and Princess Charlotte predictably took centre stage, while James\u2019 Best Man served as the only adult featured in the bridal party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/judith-parkyn-photography-wedding-wedding-suppliers-bristol.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/Pippa-Middleton\/judith-parkyn-photography-3.jpg\" alt=\"Page Boy photographed by Judith Parkyn\" width=\"720\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite requiring a good deal of herding from dutiful older sister, Kate in order to keep the children in line before the procession, there is nonetheless a simplicity and beauty in this tradition that has been lost in recent years. Pippa\u2019s wedding, however, may well encourage a return to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/judith-parkyn-photography-wedding-wedding-suppliers-bristol.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/Pippa-Middleton\/judith-parkyn-photography-10.jpg\" alt=\"Bridesmaid photographed by Judith Parkyn\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, entrusting any duties during a wedding to children can be a bit risky, but you can also guarantee that cute kids in cute outfits will be crowd-pleasers. (Their complaints over what you make them wear will likely be stifled by their parents).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It would also save you the occasionally awkward process of having to choose your bridesmaids from your group of friends, thereby avoiding inadvertently insulting anyone, and potentially saving you quite a few headaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>5) The Suits<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the morning suit is still very much present at weddings, if you believe wedding inspiration sites like Pinterest, its popularity is waning. Instead of donning the traditional tails and double-breasted waistcoats characteristic of a morning suit, modern grooms seem to be increasingly in favour of less formal, more relaxed suits. They can even occasionally wear jeans with button-down shirts and waistcoats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, this trend wouldn\u2019t be appropriate for the likes of James Matthews or Pippa\u2019s royal brothers-in-law, and so it was strictly back to tradition for the men in attendance at the Matthews wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.suitsnewbury.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/Pippa-Middleton\/2376-PP-2019.jpg\" alt=\"Examples of wedding suits from Suits Newbury\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It is interesting noting, however, that all the gentlemen present at Pippa and James\u2019 nuptials wore more typical button-down shirts and ties underneath their waistcoats. This is opposed to cravats and wing collared shirts which are often more common\u00a0at weddings. The same was true at Kate and William\u2019s wedding in 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, why a normal tie as opposed to the presumably more formal cravat? We spoke to Mark Fish of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.suitsnewbury.co.uk\/\">Suits Newbury<\/a> in Berkshire just after the wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c[Normal ties] are a hang through from royal occasions such as Ascot, where the dress code is strictly ties. It\u2019s a change from the Edwardian period when cravats were more popular.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.suitsnewbury.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/pippa-middleton-wedding-marquee-suits.jpg\" alt=\"Examples of wedding suits from Suits Newbury\" width=\"720\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the other details of the gents\u2019 suits, \u201cThey all follow the classic underlying feature of a double-breasted waistcoat, with really classic and understated colours such as light blues and yellows,\u201d Mark points out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is also quick to admit that this more formal style has fallen out of favour recently, but anticipates the wedding of the new Mr. and Mrs. Matthews may bring it back into style .\u201cAnd if theirs doesn\u2019t,\u201d he speculated, \u201cHarry\u2019s wedding probably will.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What do you think?
