According to wedding planners, the buzzword for brides getting hitched in 2020 is individuality. With Instagram sharing every moment, dress, detail, petal and amuse-bouche – there is so much pressure for brides, and couples, to deliver a picture perfect day. And while you can enlist the help of the region’s finest to plan, preen and perfect most parts of your day, one thing you can’t delegate is the finding and fitting of your dream wedding dress.

To make the search a little less tiresome, we’ve sifted through all the spring/summer 2020 collections and trends – there’s bridal, couture and ready-to-wear – to bring you an edit of the best SS20 bridal trends.
