The first step is sending out Save the Dates and invitations that set the perfect tone.
Bridgerton-inspired invitations will get your guests excited to waltz the night away.
Think lush floral borders, elegant antique frames, flowing typography similar to Lady Whistledown’s letters, and the couple’s monogram crowns.
Your invitations should feel like they belong in the Bridgerton family’s elegant morning room!
2. Bridgerton-Style Wedding Venues
Next up is the wedding venue.
To truly feel like you’ve stepped into the ton, pick a venue that screams Regency era.
Think sprawling estates, grand ballrooms, and gardens full of roses, wisterias, and topiaries.

3. Custom Aisle Runners
Get a custom aisle runner that’ll go with your Bridgerton-themed wedding.
Think monograms and floral designs fit for Lady Whistledown herself.
Or opt for a runner lined with delicate lace or shimmering gold accents.
It’ll be perfect to make your entrance truly majestic.
4. Regency Blue Color Scheme

The Regency blue color scheme refers to the various shades of blue that were popular during the Regency era.
This color palette includes soft pastels and rich royal blues.
We recommend using this color scheme as the basis for your Bridgerton-inspired wedding.
It’ll look stunning as a table runner at your wedding table. Pair it with white flowers and green foliage.
Another great way to incorporate Regency blue is in your table settings. Blue napkins wrapped with contrasting ribbons, white and blue patterned plates, blue drinkware… you get the gist!
And a Regency blue cake? Absolutely gorgeous!
5. Personalized Wax Seals
Wax seals can add a charming touch to your wedding in many ways.
They’re perfect for sealing invitations, decorating place cards, or even attaching dried flowers and leaves to your wedding favors.
And we recommend you get a customized and personalized seal with your initials.
It’s a simple way to add a bit of old-world flair to your special day.
6. Table Names
How about naming your tables after your favorite characters from the show instead of boring old numbers?
Imagine tables named Featherington, Colin, Eloise, Hastings, Anthony, Kate, or even Lady Danbury – it’ll add a fun touch of the ton to your reception!
7. Handwritten Place Cards

We love the idea of leaving a handwritten place card for each guest at their seat.
Get their names beautifully calligraphed on vintage-looking papers, and prop them up against flowers.
I know it could be time-consuming, but trust me, it’ll go perfectly with your Bridgerton theme.
How about ribbon and bow-shaped handwritten place cards, à la Eloise’s hairstyles?
8. Chandeliers
Light up your Regency-era themed wedding with chandeliers that look straight out of a period romance.
Choose from crystal chandeliers, ornate designs with antique finishes, or a modern twist on classic styles.
And no matter which ones you choose, these chandeliers will make your celebration fit for the Bridgertons themselves!
9. Lots & Lots of Candles!

A post shared by Paradise Weddings | Destination Wedding Planners (@paradiseweddings)
Set in a time when electricity wasn’t available (though we fans have spotted some historical inaccuracies, we still love the show), Bridgerton has shown us the romantic charm candles can bring!
Using candles will not only add authenticity but also evoke the ballrooms and grand homes featured in the series.
Plus, they can be used in various décor elements, from table centerpieces to aisle decorations.
10. Spectacular Floral Arches
Floral arches bring that lush, romantic vibe straight out of the series.
You’ll be saying your vows under an arch bursting with vibrant blooms, just like the stunning gardens in Bridgerton.
Plus they add a hint of drama, which the series is full of!
11. Live Music with Classical Instruments
Live music with classical instruments at your wedding is a fantastic idea.
Imagine walking down the aisle to the beautiful melodies of a string quartet, or enjoying your reception dinner while a violinist plays your favorite songs.
Magical, don’t you think?
12. A Horse and Carriage!
Because, why not make a grand entrance?!
Just make sure to book from a reliable source that prioritizes the well-being of the animals.
After all, we want everyone, including the horses, to enjoy the big day!
13. Elegant Tiaras

I know I wasn’t the only one who fell in love with the tiaras and headpieces in Bridgerton!
You did too, right?! So then wearing one for your Bridgerton-inspired wedding is a fantastic idea!
It’ll make you feel like Regency-era royalty!
14. Ribbons!
Ribbons are a charming part of the Bridgerton aesthetic.
A staple accessory in Regency-era fashion and décor, your favorite characters probably wear them in their hair, on their dresses, and even put them on gifts and stationery.
And for your Bridgerton-themed wedding, you can use them to tie up wedding invitations, decorate bouquets, and as accents on your wedding attire.
15. Umbrellas and Fans
Parasols were fashionable must-haves, keeping the ladies shaded and stylish.
And fans were essential for cooling down, and, as we know, for discreet flirting! 😉
Incorporate these 2 elements into your wedding décor – think stylish parasols for an outdoor ceremony. Or hand fans as wedding favors. Or even as wedding invites.
16. Afternoon Tea!

Instead of a cocktail hour, or a welcome party, how about you host an afternoon tea?
It’s spot-on for a Bridgerton-themed wedding.
Just grab some cups and saucers, and set up a table with mini sandwiches, scones, biscuits, mini quiches, teacakes, and pastries.
You can serve fresh pots of tea, or, if you want to spice things up, tea infused cocktails!
Serve them on vintage tea tables to up the Bridgerton quotient!
17. Lots of Tulle!
Tulle can add magic and romance to every part of your wedding!
Here are some fun ways to incorporate it:
- Add tulle layers to your wedding dress for a dreamy, ethereal look.
- A tulle veil adds a romantic touch to your bridal ensemble.
- Use tulle as table runners for a whimsical look.
- Tie tulle bows on the backs of chairs to make them look chic and delicate.
- Create a tulle aisle runner for a magical walk down the aisle.
- Drape tulle over your wedding canopy or arch.
- Use tulle to create hanging decorations like pom-poms or draped swags.
- Wrap tulle around the cake table for a fairy-tale feel.
- Create a tulle backdrop for your photo booth to give it a dreamy atmosphere.
18. Host a Formal Dance
This one comes highly recommended by everybody on our team!
Afterall, it’s a fantastic idea for a Bridgerton-inspired wedding!
It’ll instantly transport you and your guests into the glamorous world of Regency-era balls.
You can even have your first dance to Wildest Dreams.… how romantic 🥰
19. Antique Mirrors
Fun and unique ways to use antique mirrors in your Bridgerton-inspired wedding:
- Write a stylish welcome message on an antique mirror to greet your guests.
- Use a large antique mirror to display your seating chart with elegant calligraphy.
- Write the dinner menu or cocktail list on smaller antique mirrors for a chic touch.
- Create a stunning photo booth backdrop with a collection of antique mirrors.
- Scatter antique mirrors around the venue with romantic quotes or fun messages.
20. Feasting Tables
A feasting table is a long, communal table set up for a large meal.
It typically features a variety of dishes laid out for guests to share.
It creates a warm, inviting atmosphere where your guests can enjoy a more interactive and communal dining experience.
And since Bridgerton balls are all about indulgence and extravagance, the easiest way to recreate that experience for your guests is with a feasting table.
