Blue shoes and bright hues: Everything you need to know about the society wedding of the year

Eyes were fixated on the Duke of Westminster’s beautiful bride today as she stepped out of a vintage Bentley in a stunning bespoke gown and striking blue shoes.

Billionaire aristocrat Hugh Grosvenor, 33, tied the knot with Olivia Henson, 31, at Chester Cathedral, in what is expected to be the society wedding of the year. Bustling crowds formed outside the historic building this morning to get a first glimpse at the new Duchess’ highly anticipated outfit, and her unique blue velvet heels with large bows – a classy nod to the something blue tradition – were the stars of the show.

The bride waved to crowds as she entered the cathedral with a dazzling smile, as her veil and dress, designed by London-based Emma Victoria Payne, billowed in the wind.

The delicate embroidery on the veil incorporated floral motifs and edgings from Henson’s great-great-grandmother’s 1880 veil.
