Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger had a gothic theme for their wedding day near Cannes in 2013, so the Complicated singer wore a black Monique Lhuillier gown and clutched a bouquet of black roses.

Millie Mackintosh
Another bride to have two outfits for their wedding celebrations is Millie Mackintosh, who wore a chic trouser suit for her official ceremony to Hugo Taylor in 2018. The former Made in Chelsea star wore a Bianca Jagger-inspired ensemble for the first part of their wedding – a Les Heroines white suit, topped off with a 70's-style hat.
Emily Ratajkowski
Emily Ratajkowski opted for a high street ensemble for her impromptu nuptials to Sebastian Bear-McClard in February 2018. The actress wore a £120 mustard Zara trouser suit, and later told Vanity Fair that she had never wanted to wear white for her wedding. "I never loved the idea of wearing white for a wedding because I'm not a pure woman," she said. "I'm a woman with a lot of character and experience and life. I also just loved the idea of a suit, especially at City Hall because it's like you're taking care of business. I really wanted to wear red actually, initially... and then I just loved mustard yellow and just knew it was the one."
Christine Quinn
Selling Sunset star Christine wowed in a black wedding dress at her gothic-inspired nuptials. Her wedding to Christian Richard cost $1million and her dress was designed in collaboration with Galia Lahav. The real estate star paired it with signed Christian Louboutin heels.

Solange Knowles
Ever the trendsetter, Solange Knowles pioneered the bridal jumpsuit in her ivory one-piece and cape for her wedding to Alan Ferguson in New Orleans in 2014. The plunging design was from Stéphane Rolland, and will no doubt have inspired several brides in the years that have passed.
Olivia Palermo
