Ralph Lauren Creates Stunning Wedding Dress

18 November 2011 By

The spectacular wedding dress of Lauren Bush, who luckily has none other than Ralph Lauren as her father-in-law, has finally been revealed in a Vogue interview.

FEED founder Lauren said she exchanged ideas with Ralph casually before their first official design meeting at his studio this past June.

She also commented on her fascination with watching the design process: “Any experience of a girl picking out her wedding dress is amazing. But I have to say it was really special to work with [husband David Lauren's] dad, to see him in action with his team.”

Lauren then described the beautiful creation itself: “It isn’t Victorian exactly. I wanted something modern as well, so there is the high-necked collar and puffed shoulders with the large open back.”

The top layer of the dress was made of tulle in antique ivory, and it took nearly 100 craftspeople more than 3,000 hours to hand-embroider the tulle with motifs of flowers and Renaissance-era scroll designs in ivory silk and metallic thread, Swarovski Elements crystals and off-white pearl beads.

The wedding took place in a 200-year-old barn on Ralph’s Double RL Ranch in Colorado.

The actual ceremony will fall on the third day, when numbers will swell to 100,000. Food will be distributed, and the local streets are to be flooded with music and dancing.

Prateek’s father, is the distinguished head of the Samajwadi (Socialist) Party, three times Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh (India’s most populous region with 200 million citizens), an ex-Defence Minister of India and a political hero to millions around the country.

Aparna’s father, Arvind Singh Bisht, is the editor of the Lucknow branch of The Times of India in Uttar Pradesh.

A registry office in London’s Marylebone that had once served as the venue for former Beatle Paul McCartney’s marriage to his first wife Linda 42 years ago, held host to a small civil service on Sunday for his wedding to American-born Nancy Shevall.

The date chosen for the wedding coincides with what would have been the 71st birthday of John Lennon, lending a poignant air to the proceedings.

Following the service, a small reception was held in the back garden of Sir Paul’s house in St John’s Wood, which is situated nearby the famous Abbey Road studios where the majority of the Beatles songs were recorded.

A friend of the iconic musician commented on the proceedings: “The wedding is in keeping with the way Paul and Nancy have conducted their entire relationship – low-key, understated and fuelled by goodwill. Neither of them wanted a huge fuss.”
