Not every wedding needs a veil, a train or a tiara. A growing number of couples are choosing simpler days: smaller guest lists, shorter dresses, suits in unexpected colours. The clothes have followed.

If you are planning something quiet, here is what we would suggest:

- **Pick the setting first.** A registry office, a garden and a village hall each ask for a different kind of outfit.
- **Wear something you can sit in.** You will be sitting, eating and dancing. Comfort matters.
- **Think beyond white.** Ivory, cream, pale blue and soft rose all photograph beautifully.
- **Choose shoes you can stand in all day.** Flats are not a compromise.
- **Wear it again.** A dress that works for a second occasion is a better investment than one that lives in a box.

The best bridal outfits we have seen did not look like costumes. They looked like the person, on a very good day.
