As it happens in the movies, when Matilde found the dress, she just knew. “During my first fitting in Paris, my mum and I browsed archive books in person,” she explains. “When the fall 1996 look was pulled, I knew it was the one. We made slight adjustments, including changing the color to a more bridal white and removing the trousers underneath. By the second fitting, the bodice was complete, and they used a custom mannequin based on my measurements throughout the process, which I got to keep after.”
She turned to Massaro Paris for Chanel for her wedding shoes, which drew inspiration from classic Chanel designs. She kept her bridal look a secret from everyone—including her bridesmaids—making it a special memory for just her and her mother. “I’m forever grateful to have shared it with her,” she adds. In a harmonious touch, the mother of the bride also wore Chanel haute couture with matching Massaro Paris for Chanel heels.
Unsurprisingly, Matilde wore jewelry from her eponymous brand for her wedding day. “I chose pear-shaped diamond earrings totaling 11.16 carats of lab-grown diamonds, to match my engagement ring that has a five-carat lab-grown diamond,” she describes. “My mum wore a bespoke Matilde Jewellery necklace in recycled 14k white gold with 39.35 carats of lab-grown diamonds, using pear, marquise, and round diamonds.”
As someone who doesn’t wear a lot of make-up, she worked with make-up artist Melissa Bourne on a natural look, with pre-wedding treatments by facialist Guendalina Gennari for a maximum glow. “I just wanted to look and feel like myself,” the bride says.
Dan, meanwhile, was suitably dapper on the wedding day, choosing a custom Zegna navy tuxedo with a satin lapel. “Inside the jacket, the wedding date was embroidered, and the shirt featured our initials, M & D, on the cuff,” says Matilde. The bride’s father—and legendary soccer manager—José also wore a custom Zegna suit, while the best men (which included Matilde’s brother and Dan’s two brothers) had bespoke Duke & Dexter loafers with “Best Man” handwritten on the sole.
“I also had lapel pins made for my dad, my brother, my grandfather, Dan’s dad, and Dan to wear on the wedding day,” shares Matilde. “I wanted it to be a small token from me to them. They were based on the design of the Matilde Jewellery Azulejo pendant necklace, which is inspired by a traditional Portuguese azulejo tile design. I replicated this in a 14k recycled white gold finish and they all wore it on the day in their own way.”
