Make Your Nuptials Unforgettable at Villa Parker!
The idea of quiet luxury has been gaining popularity recently. You may have heard the phrase "money talks, wealth whispers." Quiet luxury is a trend that goes hand in hand with this phrase. Essentially, quiet luxury involves choosing to invest in high-quality and prestigious items, while avoiding flashy and over-the-top displays of wealth. We've seen celebrities such as Gwenyth Paltrow, Mary-Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen, and, of course, Sofia Richie, embody this style with high-quality basics as staples of their wardrobes.
Speaking of Sofia Richie, we are going to take a look at how her wedding gained attention and what it means to have a wedding that exudes quiet luxury.
The Essence of Quiet Luxury in Sofia Richie's Wedding
Sofia is one of the main girls referenced for her quiet luxury style. She did not choose this label for herself, as she has noted her phrasing for her wedding style was "timeless." The two terms are not mutually exclusive; however, quiet luxury is often synonymous with a timeless style.
Sofia, model and daughter of legendary musician Lionel Richie, got married to Elliot Grainge in April of 2023, and her wedding was nothing short of elegant and refined. From her looks to the decor, everything about her wedding was a perfect representation of quiet luxury and timelessness.
The wedding, which took place in France, made waves for its chic aesthetic. Of her rehearsal dinner dress, Sofia noted it emanated "classic elegance."
This sentiment can be seen across her entire wedding weekend. Her hair and makeup on her wedding day were pure and simple elegance. "The makeup for the entire weekend was super simple and clean. I just wanted it to feel timeless: I don’t want to look back in like 20 years and be like, She’s a glamazon," she said.
At the oceanfront venue, stunning white and cream flowers lined the aisle. Unsurprisingly, she was inspired by royal weddings in curating her special day. You could even say her wedding was the equivalent of a royal wedding but for American celebrities.
Creating Your Quiet Luxury Wedding
To achieve a quiet luxury vibe for your wedding, focus on the details. Keep the decor simple and elegant with neutral color palettes and luxurious textures like silk and velvet. Avoid decor that could come across as ostentatious. Classic and sophisticated pieces are what we're going for here.
For your dress, opt for a timeless silhouette and high-quality fabric. Keep your jewelry minimal and choose delicate pieces that make a statement without being too bold. When it comes to hair and makeup, go for a natural and effortless look. These stylistic choices can carry across your whole wedding party, keeping things cohesive and luxurious.
