8 high street bridal bits that look luxe

We’re always looking for high street bridal bits and pieces that would work for all those wedding events.

From the Hen Party, the Rehearsal Dinner, the Day Two and potentially a second dress on the Big Day, there are lots of wedding events where you might be looking for outfit inspiration.

Although these bits are from high street stores, we think that they look more luxe than their high street price tags. Also, if you love bows, you are in for a treat a over-sized bows are all over the high street – and we love it!

Remember, you don’t always need to buy something new – why not consider renting an outfit? Check out our full list of sustainable Irish dress rental companies, right here.
