2. Dress to Impress
While a traditional white dress exudes timeless elegance, consider a red dress for that unforgettable ‘wow’ factor! If red isn’t for you, a blush pink dress adorned with romantic floral appliqués or delicate lace will certainly make your partner blush as you glide down the aisle.
For the suit enthusiasts, elevating your look with a coloured tuxedo is a surefire showstopper. Alternatively, if there’s already enough love in the air, a red boutonnière or tie is the perfect touch.

4. Dress Bridesmaids in Pink
Pink has long been associated with romance and femininity, making it a timeless choice for weddings, particularly those that fall on Valentine’s Day. Embrace the love in the air with blush-toned dresses and accessories to match. Consider affording your bridesmaids the choice of a range of pinks and reds to create a stunning visual palette and express their individuality.

Valentine’s Day is of course about celebrating romantic love, especially on your wedding day, but let’s not forget to cherish plutonic love. Dried flower invitations provide a lasting reminder of your love and appreciation for your bridesmaids.
6. A Love Letter That Lasts a Lifetime
Add the perfect loving touch to your special day with a personalised heartfelt note to your partner. Exchanging Valentine’s cards is of course a must for any couple on the day of love, but seeing as a wedding is in order, an extra dash of romance can’t hurt!
