Tall floral arrangements lined the aisle at Julia and Franz's wedding ceremony in the Italian Alps town of Meran. Deep green foliage offset the white, pink, and yellow flowers, infusing the color palette that appeared on the invitation right into the event. Julia requested a fairy-tale bouquet that was "playful, natural, and romantic," a combination her florist achieved with roses, chrysanthemum, lavender, carnations, and jasmine in shades of blush, ivory, and pink.

As you plan your wedding, there are so many things you'll be told you "have" to do, but the truth is, your big day is just that—yours. While it's entirely up to you whether or not you embrace long-standing wedding traditions for your own nuptials, some are at least worth considering. Marriage ceremonies are steeped in history, and with so many cultures, religions, regions, and couples adding their own customs into the mix, it should come as no surprise that traditions and superstitions have emerged over the years—but what might surprise you is that many are still followed today. From the sweet to the bizarre and the spooky, we've demystified the most popular wedding superstitions—and shared their origins—at the link in our bio. 📷: @brittany_partain

Rochelle and Nathan wanted to find a location with space to host both their ceremony and reception, and the 18th-century manor house at Northbrook Park in Surrey, United Kingdom was ideal. "We wanted a venue that had a countryside feel to it, but was also spectacular and picture-perfect," says Rochelle. "It was stretched across 120 acres of private land which featured lakes, walled gardens, water features, and even peacocks! We loved that our guests would get to experience the countryside just outside of our hometown of London and that it was a private and intimate setting."
