Whenthe Duchess of Sussex turned 37, she spent her birthday at the glamorous wedding of Charlie van Straubenzee – one of her husband Prince Harry's best friends. The beautiful wedding was held at St Mary the Virgin Church in Frensham, Surrey and although fashion fans were excited to see Duchess Meghan's wedding guest outfit – the bride, Daisy Jenks, looked incredible in a breathtaking, strapless wedding dress which featured delicate floral embroidery sewn over the full, bombastic skirt and basque. The pretty blonde carried a bouquet packed with daisies (can you see a theme here?) but it was her jaw-dropping veil that took centre stage, and we can’t believe we missed it. Although her princess-esque gown was what bridal dreams are made of, her veil featured embroidered appliqué flowers which gave her a blooming beautiful look. Perfect for brides that are getting married in the future, Daisy's veil is a modern take on the traditional veil.
