Chic Vintage Bride – Joan Dowden

April 25, 2012

Today’s Chic Vintage Bride is the glamorous lady solely responsible for my obsession with all things vintage, is my inspiration, my hero and quite simply the most beautiful bride I have ever seen. She wasn’t a starlet of the big screen (although with those looks I am sure she could have been) or a member of any royal family and you won’t find anything of her in books or the internet, but she was the most incredible, loving, generous and inspirational woman you would have ever met. Today’s Chic Vintage Bride is my nan Joan.

And that handsome, dapper and proud looking man stood next to her is of course my Grandad, who is now where he has always wanted to be, with my Nan.

Rest in Peace Grandad
