There is nothing I love more than a dreamy destination wedding! And if Mr E and I had been tempted to say our ‘I Dos’ over seas, there is only one place it would have been – Tuscany! Few places captivate me with their romantic landscape, architecture and not to mention delicious food, quite like the…

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. Because its sweet style radiates a welcoming rustic vintage charm that makes it exactly what an intimate wedding should be – all about the couple and…

As my last inspiration board was inspired by a shade from Pantone’s picks for Spring 2016, I thought for this week’s I would look back to their Fall 2015 palette for a colour perfect for an Autumn affair, and re-discovered the beautiful shade of blue-grey that is ‘Stormy Weather‘. But this time, rather than imagining…

Today’s glamorous Gatsby inspired engagement session couldn’t be any more perfect for following yesterday’s stunning Art Deco infused bridal collection from Theia (do click here to take a peek if you missed it, because it really was a must see!) Captured by D. Park Photography at the Los Angeles Union Station it is oh so stylish, a little bit fun and…

I have something a little different for you this beautiful Monday morning. I am sticking with the stunning 2016 bridal collections that were unveiled at NY Bridal Fashion Market earlier this month, but where as Claire Pettibone’s was hauntingly romantic, today’s collection from designer Don O’Neill at Theia is somewhat edgier – definitely for the…

I imagine there must be nothing more beautiful than walking down the aisle is a family heirloom. A much loved dress, so elegant and timeless, warn by your mother or perhaps even your grandmother. For those of us who love the style and sentiment, but are not lucky enough to be in possession of one…

It only feels like yesterday that I was swooning over the runway images from last year’s NY Bridal Market, so I can hardly believe it is possible that this years has also now been and gone?! But oh what a Bridal Market it was *sigh* as not only did we see the unveiling of an incredible…

Today’s post couldn’t be any prettier or more perfect for this lovely sunny Spring day! As we continue our look at all things 1950s, today it’s time to swoon over some truly beautiful bouquets. And its fair to say the sweet charm, elegance and glamour the era is renowned for, was just as evident in the wedding…

Today’s wedding inspiration board was inspired by your favourite shade from Pantone‘s Top 10 colours for Spring 2016 (in case you missed them, you can catch up here and here), the lovely Lilac Gray. Of all the pretty shades I shared a couple of weeks ago, it was by far the most popular, with twice as many…

Usually Mr E, as supportive as he is, shows little interest in the posts I share on Chic Vintage Brides, but today’s beautiful inspiration shoot from Christy McKee Photography caught even his eye! Inspired by the Brad Pitt film ‘A River Runs Through It’ it is full of romantic vintage styling and details that would make it the…
