Your 5 Favourite Posts of 2014

Hello lovelies! Well its nearly the weekend, which, as those of you who are regulars will know, can only mean one thing – time for my weekly roundup of Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons. To those of you who are newly engaged and therefore new to Chic Vintage Brides  (Congratulations!! I hope you didn’t miss Monday’s post – it was a must see for anyone starting out on the wedding planning path), you are in for a bit of a treat as my weekly roundup posts are always some of the most popular, especially on Pinterest! For this, the first Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons of the New Year, I racked my brain for a fitting subject and what could possibly be a better countdown to start 2015 with, than the 5 most popular posts of 2014? But, I don’t mind telling you, there were a few surprises! None of the beautifully inspiring weddings or inspiration boards made the list, and just wait until you see the post in the number one spot!

4. We all love a designer dress, and there is no better excuse for splurging than a wedding – but only if you can afford to! Your wedding is after all only the start of your marriage and married life should definitely not start with a mountain of debt! Your wedding day shouldn’t break the bank and nor does it have to, especially when it comes to your wedding dress, for there are budget friendly options every way you turn – and I am not talking poor quality, unethical, designer knock offs. Just take a peek at these 20 Incredible Wedding Dresses all under $1000 – yep, seriously!

3. The fact I only published this sneak peek of BHLDN’s Spring 2015 Collection in December shows just how very much you loved it – and I am not surprised! BHLDN, with their carefully curated collections of uniquely vintage-inspired style at affordable prices, has long been a fave of mine but their 2015 collection really is something else. It is, by the way now live and definitely worth a closer look!

1. This one ~ my top five grooms & groomsmen trends for 2014! For far too long our boys were playing it safe with their wedding day attire, but 2014 was the year we saw more gorgeous grooms expressing their unique styles and letting their personalities shine through. It was the year grooms joined brides in wanting to put their own stamp on their wedding day style, and long may it continue!
