Vintage Bridal Gowns

The bridal gown is a crucial element of the wedding planning process because the dress represents the essence of the bride.  Everyone knows that wedding gowns are outrageously expensive and with the economic times we are faced with as a nation, budget weddings are becoming more popular !  The wedding planning process is overwhelming enough as it is, so Lovelies consider purchasing a vintage bridal gown.  Vintage gowns are classic and affordable. 

The bridal gown shown below is antique laced and slightly beaded.  It is a classic because it reveals romance and true femininity and most importantly it represents something that has been lost in time and that my Lovelies, is tradition.

The gown below is sheer elegance with a hint of tradition.

For the winter bride, this elegant, metallic, swirled patterned, floor length, brocade coat is gorgeous ! 

Envision a winter wonderland wedding theme with sparkling white lights all around, the groom waiting for his bride as she arrives in a carriage of white horses laced with red roses and the bride as beautiful as the winter snow arriving in her beautiful gown with this almost white, very detailed coat, everyone would think this was custom made for the bride!  No one would have to know our little secret!  If not for the bride then it would be a great fit for anyone in the bridal party.  No need to fear this coat is not confined to a wedding it can also be worn to dinner parties, theatre, opera, ballet, anywhere during those cold winter days.  Lovelies I highly recommend this coat………I assure you it is a beauty!

Have a wonderful weekend lovelies!

Vintage weddings

So, I'm sitting here watching David Tutera's My Fair Wedding and he's doing a "vintage" theme. The girl is absolutely adorable and has an old soul. She totally belonged in a different era.  Her dress was beautiful and so were her accessories. I started thinking about vintage wedding dresses and have actually been on the hunt for some myself, but no luck yet.

I did a search for some and came across the pic of Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady. Although it may have not been a wedding dress, it totally could have and still can be! I absolutely love it. I also came across a more modern version of it that is still stunning! Have a looksie below:

Isn't it GORGEOUS?
