Harriet Sperling's Wedding Dress

I wouldn't call wearing white with a veil covering your face 'doing it right this time around'...however, you can wear what you want.
I think the virginal look was a bit silly, tbh.

The ‘virginal’ look is hardly ever meaningful nowadays, but if people like and want the trad bridal look, then IMO good luck to them. It’s hardly going to affect anyone else, certainly not any nitpickers here.

Silverlining you’re not alone I ve no idea who she is either but must be well thought of 🤣

The decision would be that of the Priests I would imagine, not our concern; perhaps it was a service of blessing. She looked lovely, they both looked extremely happy, as did their extended families. Good wishes to them.

No it was a wedding service. I’ve been reading up about the changes brought in in 2002. The individual priests decide apparently as you say. Big negatives are if the person you are marrying contributed to the breakdown of your original marriage or multiple previous marriages. All sounds very sensible

I take it you've reassessed your original post then?

Like GG13 I've attended Church weddings for friends where both were divorced. Many Churches of varying Christian denominations are happy to perform same sex marriage services.

I thought she looked lovely, good luck to her wearing what she wanted.

Theres already a thread in Style and Beauty from Saturday.

Rosie51 Just to be clear, same sex couples cannot legally marry in the Anglican church.

I have been to several weddings in churches where the bride and groom have been divorcees.
So have I, including my brother and his new wife.
I’ve also been to several wedding where some of the guests were making rather uncalled for, personal comments about the wedding outfits, whilst waiting during the photo sessions.
One of the nastiest I recall was
^At least she’s wearing off-white!” And then laughed. At least some who heard that, quickly looked away.
Whoever said GN wasn’t like real life.
