Nicole Brydon Bloom’s Dreamy Victoria Beckham Wedding Dress Stuns Fans with 400 Hand-Cut Flowers
Of course, in the world of celebrity weddings, where the dress is often more talked about than the vows, Nicole Brydon Bloom managed to outshine even the most extravagant nuptials with a gown that could make a florist weep. The actress, who recently married Justin Theroux in a beachside ceremony in Mexico, took to Instagram to gush over her custom Victoria Beckham wedding dress—a masterpiece adorned with over 400 hand-cut, hand-stitched flowers. Because nothing says “I do” like a dress that probably required more labor than the actual marriage license.
Bloom’s gown, crafted from French Chantilly lace and paired with a crepe de chine slip embellished with appliqué lace blossoms, was described by the bride as “ethereal” and “dreamy.” Victoria Beckham, who designed the dress, shared in an Instagram Stories post that creating the gown was an “honour,” which, coming from a former Spice Girl turned fashion mogul, is high praise indeed. The dress, with its asymmetrical, semi-sheer design, was perfect for the beach setting, though Bloom admitted she spent most of the ceremony barefoot in the sand—because who needs Manolo Blahnik sandals when you have a dress that’s basically a garden?
The story of how Bloom ended up with a Victoria Beckham original is almost as charming as the dress itself. Theroux, who has been friends with Victoria’s husband, David Beckham, for years, introduced Bloom to the designer during a weekend getaway. Victoria, ever the helpful fashion icon, asked Bloom what she was planning to wear and then proceeded to describe her vision for the gown—something “ethereal, flowy, and light for the sand, with tulle and soft flowers.” Bloom, clearly not one to argue with a Spice Girl, agreed, and the rest is sartorial history.
Bloom’s Instagram post, featuring photos by wedding photographer Corbin Gurkin, captured the dress in all its floral glory, with the bride declaring, “I loved every minute of this day and every minute in this gown.” And honestly, who wouldn’t? The dress was elegant, timeless, and just a little sexy—everything a wedding gown should be, especially when it’s designed by someone who once sang “Wannabe” on stage.
So, there you have it: a wedding dress so stunning it might just make you reconsider your own nuptials. Or at least your choice of florist.
