Some weddings truly define luxury bridal fashion—and Naomi and Ryan’s elegant celebration at Bellingham Castle was the epitome of modern romance for style-led brides across Ireland and the UK. With stunning floral arrangements, two unforgettable bridal looks, and a timeless venue, this wedding is the perfect inspiration for brides planning a chic and sophisticated wedding in Ireland.
Naomi walked into White Blossom Bridal with a clear sense of style. Confident, fashion-forward, and effortlessly graceful, she was the embodiment of the modern Irish bride. She hoped to find a designer wedding dress in Ireland that felt contemporary yet timeless.
She found it in the Zelia two-piece by Lola Varma—a minimalist masterpiece made from luxurious silk. With clean lines, a fluid drape, and statement sleeves, Zelia offered Naomi a fashion-forward bridal silhouette perfect for her romantic castle wedding.

A Vision in Silk
When Naomi first contacted into White Blossom Bridal, we immediately knew she was a bride with a strong sense of personal style. Sophisticated, confident, and fashion-forward—she was the definition of the modern bride.
Her heart was set on something sleek yet striking, contemporary yet timeless. And then she found the one: the Zelia two-piece by Lola Varma, a minimalist dream crafted from the most exquisite luxury silk. The gown’s fluid drape, clean lines, and statement sleeves created a stunning silhouette that felt both bold and effortlessly graceful.
For brides looking for modern wedding dresses, the Zelia Blouse and Skirt by Lola Varma is a masterclass in refined bridal fashion. Its luxurious silk fabric adds a rich texture and sheen, making it perfect for a sophisticated castle or estate wedding.
As Naomi walked down the aisle, she was a vision of understated glamour. Her contemporary bridal look was elevated by a two-tier French lace veil—soft, romantic, and beautifully traditional—and a stunning bouquet from the incredibly talented team at Inscape Flowers. The bouquet, brimming with rich tones and textured blooms, added contrast and drama to the sleekness of her gown.
Dancing the Night Away in Vincent – A Reception Look to Remember
After the vows were exchanged and the champagne flowed, it was time for Naomi’s second bridal moment of the day—and it did not disappoint.
For the reception, Naomi changed into the Vincent gown by Lola Varma, another impeccable choice for brides seeking designer wedding dresses in Ireland. The gown’s sleek silhouette and clean neckline offered a modern simplicity that oozed sophistication. But Naomi added a dramatic twist—custom bridal tulle wings, which created breathtaking movement and a unique, ethereal feel as she danced the night away.
This second look was the epitome of modern bridal styling—a true testament to Naomi’s fashion-forward spirit. For brides searching for bridal boutiques in Ireland that offer contemporary looks beyond the traditional ballgown, White Blossom Bridal is proud to stock exclusive labels like Lola Varma, which redefine what it means to be a modern bride.
