Her hair adornments sat atop a half-down, half up to, with her dark blonde tresses tumbling in loose curls past her shoulders. 

She wore little make-up, pairing a fresh, dewy base with natural blush and lips, and very light eyeliner.

Opting for a subtle, but elegant bouquet, she carried a small white bunch of flowers, featuring lilies among other blooms. 

Her beau was equally dapper, opting for traditional tails in navy, which he wore over a waistcoat.

He opted for a tie – in stripes of navy and maroon – and completed the outfit with grey striped trousers. 

Images show the happy couple beaming after the ceremony, with the groom even raising his new wife’s hand to his lips at one point, to kiss her. 

Following the ceremony, they enjoyed a reception at the  Chateau de Belœil – which is the Seat of the Princes of Ligne.
