When a Jimmy Choo PR marries an Italian royal… the wedding is stunning

And no prizes for guessing what shoes she wore.

We’re not going to lie – we’ve never heard of either of them before now.

But suffice to say that after drooling over their nuptials on Instagram, we’re BIG fans of fashion PR Alexandra Lucy Edwards and Italian aristocrat Carlo Carello.

Here’s the happy couple in a nutshell: Alexandra is 27 and works as Jimmy Choo‘s London-based PR manager.

Carlo is 30 and once romanced Princess Beatrice. He owns a swanky private members’ club in Kensington and has plenty of extremely wealthy relatives.

So their wedding was – naturally – completely stunning.

A dazzling three-day event held at the sprawling Castello di Racconigi in Turin (the rental bill alone probably came to €120,000), they were joined by 200 of their nearest and dearest, including the fashion editors of leading glossy magazines as well as PRs from major fashion houses.

The bride, who was born in London, wore a Naeem Khan gown (Michelle Obama is also a fan of the same label). The dress boasts intricate floral detail and a stunning full skirt with a cinched in waist. There is also a sheer sleeve overlay with plenty of embroidery detail. Unsurprisingly, she completed her look with Jimmy Choos.

Alexandra’s bridesmaids wore ivory satin gowns designed by independent British bridesmaid company TH & TH.

And so, without further ado, we give you a glimpse of an altogether very posh wedding…
