Ever since that dreamy Daylesford Wedding on a Lavender Farm by the incredible Jonathan Ong I have been loving Lavender – the flower, the colour and the scent. Not only is it’s beautiful scent ideal to create an ambiance for a vintage wedding, but it’s also super soothing – could anything be more perfect for a…

Continuing the unveiling of the new 2013 Collections from this year’s Bridal Market, today I have Marchesa for you – and this collection has everything we have come to expect from this red carpet favourite! Full of incredible modern design, fused with good old fashioned romance, design duo Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig have done…

This week’s Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons has a real wedding theme – each one different, unique and breathtaking! 1. Starting with a bright and beautiful rainbow coloured wedding on Magnolia Rouge from Bayly & Moore – the photographers extraordinaire behind this incredible 1950s inspired Melbourne Wedding. (with photography like that who needs the sun?) 2. From Ruffled…

Today’s Chic Vintage Bride is the glamorous lady solely responsible for my obsession with all things vintage, is my inspiration, my hero and quite simply the most beautiful bride I have ever seen. She wasn’t a starlet of the big screen (although with those looks I am sure she could have been) or a member of any royal family and you…

Whilst we may always be able to rely on Vera Wang to push the boundary for bridal design (the queen of bridal couture will forever be the first choice for daring brides), there is one designer known for her ethereally beautiful, dreamily embellished and flawlessly tailored gowns and that is Monqiue Luillier. (For some reason that gown makes me…

Oh what a week! With the first glimpses of Spring 2013 collections, including the incredible Red Collection from the inimitable Vera Wang (and I have more 2013 collections for you next week including Monique Lhuillier – you don’t want to miss it, I promise you) and the first Chic Vintage Brides exclusive offer – from none other than an…

Ever since my post on Floral Crowns I have been a teeny weeny bit obsessed with Mignonne Handmade, so you can imagine my delight (and how quickly I jumped at the chance) when the incredible lady behind the brand, Jennifer Wood, said she would love Chic Vintage Brides to feature her Winter/Spring 2012 collection and offered a super offer for all you lovely readers….

You may have noticed my slight obsession with coloured bridal dresses, and there is always one designer who never ceases pushing the boundary in terms of bridal colours (who can forget her lingerie inspired black and nude collection) and who never fails to to excite with her ever awe inspiring collections, that designer of course is Vera…

You can probably tell I haven’t quite got back into the swing of things since my lovely Easter break with Mr E….. normal service will resume next week, I promise – it is quite simply impossible not to feel inspired after pulling together this week’s Snippet, Whispers & Ribbons! 1. Magnolia Rouge have done it…

I can’t believe it’s Easter already! It has really creeped up on me and taken me by surprise this year. I just can not get used to celebrating Easter in Autumn, it is even starnger than Christmas in Summer! Now it’s here though I am so glad as I have a long weekend away with my gorgeous…

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…

It has been noticeably nippier this week – I think its time to for the winter quilt! I love Autumn – and not just for its obvious beauty, but also for the comforting food (we made a sherry rice pudding this week!), cosy nights in and extra snuggles, cuddles and lay-ins its the perfect excuse…

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! The man behind the lens is James Frost, an epicly brilliant photographer (from good ol’ blighty originally…. no I’m not biased, just proud to meet another one making it…

There are so many reasons I love Pinterest (currently I am using it to plan my blossoming sister-in-laws baby shower and to find potential destinations for the honeymoon that Mr E and I will one day have) but equally importantly it is a constant source of, well this is going to state the obvious but,…

How is everyone? Glad it’s Friday? Silly question! 🙂 Being Friday, here are my pick of this week’s posts…… 1. I simply could not resist sharing this fairytale Miami wedding on Style Me Pretty – with my love of brooch bouquets and the fabulous colour palette captured perfectly by photographer  Jessica Lorren (Organic Photography)…… 2. If you haven’t…
