Burlington Arcade: London’s Ultimate Shopping Destination

This post is dedicated to our London readers, and all the fashionable crowd, who wish to shop at one of England’s chicest address – Burlington Arcade. Whether it is planning your wedding list, selecting your engagement ring or buying a present for hte bridal party, Burligton Arcade, Britain’s first shopping arcade, has the answer. I like the fact that it’s away from the mainstream, and elegant brides and grooms, and anyone who is shopping for a posh and special wedding, can see bespoke pieces to match British boutique wedding – something which the Burlington Arcade offers with unrivalled aplom!

Mark Lord, the head Beadle at the Burlington Arcade comments: ‘The Burlington Arcade is an un-rivalled destination for both UK and international consumers looking for a truly bespoke wedding experience. From the ring room at Richard Ogden to the tranquil perfume profiling room at Penhaligon’s, the enclosed arcade is an oasis away from the busy streets of London. It takes time to decide who you want to marry, do that decision justice by taking the time to get the attire right for your big day. I certainly did, I bought my wife’s engagement ring at the arcade. I see many couples visit the Arcade and each couple has a memorable British experience. It doesn’t get better than that.’
