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…

This is one of my favourite times of the year! Not only because of the beautiful change in season – whilst you are looking forward to Fall, here in New Zealand the days are getting lighter, the trees are blooming with delicate blossom and its sweet scent fills the air. But, whilst that makes it…

So we’ve come to the last in this series of Art Deco themed Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons, and of course there could be no more fitting finale than looking at the piece de resistance of any wedding inspired by the Jazz Age – a wedding dress with pizazz! And with all things Art Deco still so popular, even…

I don’t know about you, but if there is one thing I am looking forward to in October, it is the latest and last (*sniff*) series of Downton Abbey! Whilst I can hardly imagine my Chistmases without the glimpse into their glamorous lives, I can’t wait to find out how it all ends for the Crawley clan. And…

So far in this series of Art Deco themed Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons we’ve looked at the most perfect bridal hair accessories, decadent wedding invitations, delicious wedding cakes, fabulous bridesmaid dresses, beautiful bouquets, dapper grooms and elegant hair & makeup, which doesn’t leave us much more to look at! In fact next week’s will be the last, for this era at least; but…

With all of this talk of Art Deco, I thought it was the perfect time for a little reminder (or introduction, for those of you who are new to Chic Vintage Brides) to the collection of beautiful authentic vintage bridal gowns and dresses from the fabulous Mill Crest Vintage. So, for those of you who dream…

I might have mentioned it before (once or twice) that, when it comes to fashion, the Art Deco era is one of my absolute favourites, and it’s the hairstyles in particular that always get me swooning! Being both sexy and chic, glamorous and sleek, it is no wonder that almost 100 years later these looks are…

If you’re a Daisy Buchanan wannabe, adore Downton Abbey or just Jazz-age obsessed and have missed any of the last few weeks Art Deco themed Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons then you have some catching up to do! Because we’ve already looked at the most perfect bridal hair accessories, decadent wedding invitations, delicious wedding cakes, fabulous bridesmaid dresses and beautiful bouquets and this…

Today’s post couldn’t be any prettier! As we continue our look at all things Art Deco, today it’s time to swoon over some truly beautiful bouquets. And its fair to say the glitz, glamour and luxury the era is renowned for, was just as evident in the wedding bouquets as it was in the fashion of…

I don’t know about you but I am loving this series of Art Deco themed Snippets, Whispers & Ribbons!! So far we’ve looked at the most perfect bridal hair accessories, wedding invitations and delicious wedding cakes for an Art Deco infused wedding and today I’m turning our attention to the all important bridesmaids. Because you want your girls to look…

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…

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…

Oh I have such a treat for you, for this morning I am whisking you away to Rome!! Today’s wedding inspiration shoot from Rosenvoile oozes Art Deco opulence, and was captured by L&V Photography on a gloriously sunny Spring day in the very heart of Italy’s capital, at the stunning Acquario Romano ….. Delightfully romantic, glimmering with touches of gold…

Today’s wedding inspiration shoot is a 1920s vision, in fact it could have come directly from the pages of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel, it is so opulent and dripping in Art Deco details. From the imagination of Sue Gallo, whose work you may remember from this romantic wedding inspiration shoot, and beautifully captured by Ally Kristensen,…
