Lily's wedding dress was an A-line, lace overlay gown with full-length sleeves and high neckline, featuring French Calais-Caudry lace, Swarovski-beaded flowers and silk organza petals. Instead of a veil, she opted for a matching, cathedral-length lace cape with cloak-style hood. Underneath, Lily wore her hair in a sleek low bun with a middle part, some subtle braids and gold hair jewellery.

Lily and Charlie tied the knot in Colorado, a location that clearly inspired Lily's choice of outfit. She wrote on Instagram, "Thank you @ralphlauren for working so closely with me to dream up this magical dress. It’s my ultimate dream combination of Western Americana and British Victorian. Carefully handcrafted over nearly 200 hours, every detail was perfect — from the Calais-Caudry lace to the Swarovski-beaded micro flowers and silk organza petals. It’s the most beautiful, memorable gown I will ever wear and I couldn’t have imagined it any other way." The wedding featured vintage and antique furniture and decor and rustic wildflowers, which complimented the epic landscape - the couple posed for portraits by the hot springs that give their name to the gorgeous wedding venue, Dunton Hot Springs.
