Art Deco has been the biggest wedding trend of recent years (thanks largely to Leo and The Great Gatsby), and long may it continue I say! So, after looking at bridal hair accessories and wedding invitations in our Art Deco themed series of Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons, today we’re looking at wedding cakes. Whether you are…

Ooh today’s wedding inspiration shoot from Wendy Cooper Photography is just so super sweet! An adorable take on the modern vintage wedding, it is infused with mid-century details, including the most heavenly vintage tea length wedding dress, but in shades of lavender and purple mixed with a juicy lime green that has a distinctly modern edge. Fun, flirty…

As a designer I tried on during my search for the one, and would have worn (I fell hard for an elegant 1950s style number with pockets!) if only our venue’s aisle had been a little wider, I have long been a fan of Jesús Peiró and their elegant designs that shine with sophisticated simplicity. And…

When you receive a wedding with the words elegant, Art Deco and Marsala in the description, you know you’re in for something special. Then when you learn the beautiful bride is also an event and wedding planner…..well, it’s hard not to let out a little eek of excitement let me tell you! And today’s floral…

Not so long ago, finding an eco chic wedding dress was a challenge. But with a rise in couples looking to celebrate their love with a green and eco-conscious wedding, has come an increase in demand for wedding dresses that not only wow the groom but also go some way to saving the world! Allowing creative designers…

As promised, last weeks Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons (which if you missed it was packed full of the most perfect bridal hair accessories) was just the beginning of this Art Deco series. Each week over the coming months I’ll be looking at a key part of styling your Gatsby glamour inspired wedding from hair accessories to stationery, wedding dresses and groom’s attire, bouquets and bridesmaid…

Shivering in my office, in the midst of Winter, today’s wedding inspiration shoot from Presh Floral (whose name you might recognise from this beautiful blue vintage Dior shoot from a few weeks back) and Kymberlie Dozois was just what I needed to warm me up! Created in a palette of soft neutrals & pretty shades of purple inspired by Provence,…

Florist extraordinaire and Chic Vintage Brides‘ resident flower expert Toni from Magdalen Hill is back for another Bouquet Recipe. And today she has identified and jotted down the blooms for one of your favourite bouquets on Pinterest. And it is SUCH a stunner, I can completely see why it made you weak at the knees!…..

We’re starting the week in the most perfect – and exciting! – way, by offering you the chance to win your own beautifully intimate wedding! Yep, just imagine a completely stress free day, in the most beautiful place on earth, with every little detail in the hands of amazing wedding professionals, where all you have to…

If you’re a long time follower of Chic Vintage Brides, then you will know I have something of an obsession with wax flower crowns. I have always thought them the most chic of bridal hair accessories (thanks to my rather stylish Nan, whose wedding portrait I have treasured since I was a child) and if I ever…

I enjoyed our recent saunter through the seasons. So much so in fact that I have decided to continue with the themed Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons (our little weekly roundups). And what could be a better subject for this new series of posts, than the gorgeous eras we’re all so in love with? Each week…

Big on style, elegance and opulence – and not to mention positively brimming with the most fabulous vintage details (we’re talking feathers, pearls, gold candelabras and gramophones); this 1930s inspired wedding shoot from Tausendschoen Photographie and Facts and Feelings is sure to make your knees weak! Seriously, Jay Gatsby himself would have been happy attending a wedding this lavish…..

We had a cold and frosty start to the day here in Hawkes Bay this morning! And so, I thought with this week’s inspiration board I would whisk us away to sunnier climes; somewhere romantic, beautiful and most importantly warm! Inspired by the stunning Villa Cetinale, which nestling in the heart of Tuscany always gets me dreaming of a trip to…

We’re starting this week with yet another gorgeous bridal collection for 2016 (I hope you didn’t miss last week’s beauty!) this time from Chic Vintage Brides’ regular and fave Belle & Bunty. I’m sure you can’t possibly have forgotten the last collection of theirs I shared with you on these pages – , inspired by…

Well it is nearly the weekend, and I have just the perfect, inspiration-packed post to see you through this Friday! As we come to the end of this series of Summer wedding themed Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons, today’s post is all about the little details and thoughtful gestures that make a beautiful Summer celebration truly unforgettable!…..
