Well, that’s exactly what happened to today’s bride Tiffany. I can’t imagine the thoughts and emotions that must run…

Whilst it has been quite some time since this post, Aisle arches are still one of my favourite wedding details! And even more so when they were a little DIY project by the groom like the floral beauty in today’s vintage backyard wedding captured by Jessica Tremp of  Brown Paper Parcel. The whole wedding is awash with…

Pastels was one of my picks of the top wedding trends for the coming year and when you see pretty celebrations such as this outdoor Alabama affair captured by Baylee Rae , it is easy to see why!

A wedding described as ‘vintage in pastels with a high tea reception’ is my idea of perfection, but that is just the start of the loveliness of today’s English Countryside inspired wedding from Jac & Heath Photography…… Add to the high tea reception, the quaintest venue, a marquee decked out in DIY bunting, a rainbow wedding…

Elegant vintage styling, fine art photography and an opulent colour palette of Marsala are all things guaranteed to give me butterflies, but when you combine these things into one inspiration shoot, well it becomes my idea of heaven!

When fun loving Texan newly-weds Pam and Shane describe their day as an ‘intimate, creative country wedding’ I don’t think they quite do the beauty and charm of their celebration justice.

When you receive a wedding with the words elegant, Art Deco and Marsala in the description, you know you’re in for something special.

Good morning! I have said it before (and am quite sure I will say it again!) that my only regret when Mr E & and I got engaged, was that we jumped head first into planning the wedding, never pausing for a moment to celebrate our engagement with a shoot. And well, when the polished and classy images…

Oh my goodness, to say I am in love with today’s gorgeous, glamping engagement session would be an understatement, and I just know it is going to steal your heart too!

There is something so utterly romantic about elopements!

Luckily I have just the perfect thing to brighten this dreary Monday! I have been positively bursting to share this decadent art…

I have been looking forward to sharing today’s rustic, vintage wedding ever since I first spotted it on Darren from CK Metro Photos blog.

I just know you are going to love, today’s bride, Sally’s style (for a start does she remind anyone else of the fabulous Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine??) and her beautiful sun drenched wedding from Goldsmith & Co. From the glam black bridesmaids dresses (with a hint of Audrey I feel) and wrist corsages, which are such…

I think I am hearing the call of the wild at the moment, because I simply can not get enough of outdoor weddings! There is just something about the natural beauty of the green landscapes and the dramatic skylines…… and dramatic and super sweet are the first words to come to mind when describing this…

I am so excited to be bringing today’s real wedding, which comes courtesy of the lovely Christina from Chrisp Pictures.

Oh I have such a treat of a real wedding for you today! I was lost the moment I glimpsed these gorgeous images from Jill Andrews, who captured the beauty and love of Elysia and John’s wedding day so perfectly….. It goes without saying that I adore Elysia’s pretty ethereal style – in her Sera…

Lulled into a false sense of Spring security, Winter made a short return and last week felt anything but Spring like! But isn’t there just something about the light on crisp, cold days? Today’s real Winter wedding, with its pretty blossom hinting at Spring, captures perfectly what I mean. With the lovely Darren, from CK Metro Photos, images you can almost…

One of the best things about doing CVB (apart from looking at endless beautiful wedding dresses) is sharing, all be it in a very small way, in one of the happiest days of a couple’s lives. Poring over images of the perfectly captured emotions of the day – the nerves, excitement, relief!, smiles, tears, joy, cheers, never fails to…

Oh gosh I have serious envy over the exquisitely embellished shoes of today’s bride and I just love the way sunshine streams into every single one of the beautiful images from this elegant hunter valley wedding!

I have something of a CVB first for you today – today’s real wedding is the first from New Zealand! I can’t believe it…. it doesn’t seem possible…… we all know Kiwi brides, grooms, photographers and wedding planners can do chic, elegant, vintage/whimsical/retro weddings as well as our dear neighbours (if not better :-)) and yet it’s…

It is a complete reflection of the Bride and Groom Keirra and Chris’s style, refreshingly unique and the epitome of rustic elegance…… ….. oh and set in the most picture perfect setting – Noosa Australia (What is it…

There is nothing I don’t love about Marina & Andy’s 1950s inspired nuptials – the bride’s long sleeved and tea length dress, the hand made brooch bouquets, the multi coloured bridesmaids dresses with fur coats, the huge sign of love at the reception and the fabulous photographs from NZ based photographic heroes Bayly & Moore….. the whole shebang is…

When I stumbled across the chic and understated wedding of Alex and Ryan on Australian Wedding blog Love Wed Bliss I was instantly drawn to it by the bride’s perfectly vintage birdcage veil, then I swooned over her lovely modern-with-a-hint-of-vintage wedding dress and gasped with joy at her choice of gorgeous green shoes! So of course I had…

I first spotted this decidedly funky retro wedding on Ruffled, and following my You Are My Sunshine post last week, featuring some fabulous tea length wedding dresses, I didn’t hesitate in asking the incredibly talented photographer Stewart from S Leishman, if he would kindly allow me to share his gorgeous images on CVB, and well, here they…

I love creating moodboards! (as you will discover)  There is something poetic, pleasing, rewarding and indeed a little addictive about finding beautiful images and piecing them together to create a unique snapshot of your lusts, a fusion of your hopes, dreams and loves. After sharing our wedding photos, I thought I would share how I…

When I first started to think of Chic Vintage Brides I must admit to being in equal measures excited and nervous at the thought of sharing my wedding photos – excited that they may inspire future brides (as the images I found on Love My Dress did when I was planning my wedding ), but equally nervous…
