On Saturday, May 20, Pippa Middleton wed billionaire James Matthews in a semi-private ceremony St. Mark’s Church in Englefield. The bride wore a gorgeous custom lace dress by British designer Giles Deacon (which showed off her incredibly sculpted arms — you go girl), a Maidenhair Fern tiara, a Stephen Jones veil, a hairpiece by Robinson Pelham and Manolo Blahnik ivory satin shoes. Kate Middleton wore an Alexander McQueen bridal dress designed by Sarah Burton, plus one heck of a fascinator. Prince George and Princess Charlotte, page boy and bridesmaid, wore custom Pepa & Co. The fashion was fabulous, the kids had a ball. Click through the gallery below to take it all in.

Deacon had this to say of the dress: “I was thrilled to work with Pippa on her wedding dress. The dress is constructed with a cap sleeve, high neckline and features a corseted bodice with draping to the front and a heart-shaped detail at the back. The bespoke silk cotton lace was hand appliquéd to create an illusion of the dress having ‘no seams’. The lace bodice is embroidered with pearl detailing over an organza and tulle underskirt, which has layer upon layer to enable a floor-sweeping movement. It’s a privilege to show the craftsmanship that my team produces in London and a real testament to Pippa’s support of British fashion.”
