Today I am beyond excited to be sharing the utterly dreamy vintage (and I mean real vintage) wedding dresses of Authentic Vintage Bridal. I have spoken before of my love of vintage wedding dresses, not only because of their inimitable feminine style, that hints at a time of romance; but for the glimpse they offer of…

Good morning! I might be reaching the end of another wet day here in usually sunny Hawkes Bay, but I know most of you will soon be waking up, hopefully to a bright and beautiful morning. Don’t be glum though if the sun isn’t shining where you are either, for I am about to whisk you…

I hope your Monday morning hasn’t started as wet and miserably as mine has. But if it has, I have just the thing to brighten your day! Do you remember the gorgeous Autumn wedding colour palettes I shared a couple of weeks ago? Well, it seems you loved them as much as I did. In fact…

Just as exciting as the glimpses we are beginning to get of the new 2015 collections of wedding dresses (did you see Delphine Manivet‘s?? Brimming with timelessly elegant gowns, flowing bohemian dresses, short but chic designs – and even the ever so on trend trouser ensemble! It really is a must see) is the unveiling of the latest…

Whilst here in NZ I am looking forward to Spring, Autumn is just around the corner for most of you – and I am quite envious! So far I have shared with you 5 of the prettiest palettes and 5 beautiful bouquets, and I am keeping with the Fall theme for this week’s Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons. Today it…

It is such an exciting time of year for wedding bloggers and brides-to-be alike,  as we start to get glimpses of the latest bridal collections for 2015. I always wait with bated breath for the latest offering from Jenny Packham, Claire Pettibone, Vera Wang, Monique Lhuillier….I could go on, but you know what I mean. Those…

Hello lovelies! I hope you have had a marvelous start to your week. I have to say we kicked the week off with something of a bang here on Chic Vintage Brides with yesterday’s super stylish vintage inspired wedding! I don’t know about you but I love how the bold and beautiful bride wore red –…

We are kicking off the week with some serious style! If you loved the perfect styling of Kate & Andrie’s Speakeasy inspired wedding soiree, then you are going to love Ursula & Chris’s bold and beautiful Sydney wedding. Who wouldn’t love a wedding that features a bride wearing red, a Vintage VW Camper, an icecream truck, a rocking…

In keeping with this week’s rather Autumn look and feel here on Chic Vintage Brides I have a beauty of a styled shoot for you today, capturing the stunning veils and headpieces of CVB sponsor and designer Wanlu Bridal. You may remember a while ago I shared her beautiful Wedding Dress collections, if you missed it you can take a…

It might be thanks to last week’s Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons, or all the pretty pins on Pinterest or just because it has been distinctly un-Spring like here this last week, that and the fact that it is of course my favourite season, but I am feeling very Autumnal at present and loving all of the…

Hello lovelies! What a way to start the week I have for you this fine Monday morning – I just know you are going to Love it (yes, with a capital L!) This speakeasy inspired shindig is a wedding soiree! What on earth is a wedding soiree I hear you ask? Well, it’s an evening…

Good morning, I hope you are all enjoying a lovely start to your weekend! I have such a treat for you today that I just know you’re going to love. It has been such a long time since I last shared something from Mignonne Handmade – too long in fact! For many of you this…

Whilst we are looking forward to the start of Spring here in NZ – warmer days, later nights, gardens filled with flowers and BBQs with friends; I confess Autumn remains my favourite season! In fact, I am more than a little envious of you starting to see the leaves turn and planning trips to the…

Yay, I am so honoured, chuffed and beyond excited to be sharing with you today the first reader submitted Chic Vintage Bride! What does that mean? Well, usually I spend hours scouring the internet for a pretty dress, a familiar name, the perfect picture of a happy bride & groom to share with you each…

Good morning lovelies. Today’s beach bridal inspiration shoot from Kirill Bordon (you may remember the love shoot I shared from him a couple of months ago? Well this one is, if possible, even more gorgeous!) is just perfect for this time of year. Shot on a hidden sandy beach in West Vancouver, Canada, surrounded by ocean, forests, and…
