I am so excited to be bringing today’s real wedding, which comes courtesy of the lovely Christina from Chrisp Pictures. Simone and Cole were married in October at the incredibly impressive Campbell Point House and managed to achieve the perfect mix of relaxed elegance, befitting a beach wedding, but with more than a hint of old world glamour…… Christina…

I have had this real wedding post planned for so long and I just couldn’t wait any longer to share it with you! It is super sweet, with lots of little DIY details and bride and groom Nora & Ed just couldn’t be any more effortlessly chic and cool…… Romantically, Ed & Nora’s wedding was…

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…

What an exciting week, for once I am a little sad to see it end!! Chic Vintage Brides hit 1,000,000 followers on Pinterest – I am overwhelmed and indeed a little in shock 🙂 I ♥ each and every CVB follower – be they on the blog, Pinterest or Facebook, for sharing my passion for all things wedding…

There will always be something about your wedding dress designer – be it yourself, your Mum, off the rack or couture; you never forget where you got your dress or who created it. I tried on many beautiful dresses before I found my The One, but it was only Jenny Packham‘s Petra that made me…

Last Sunday it was 5 years since Mr E and I had our first date…. it’s almost impossible to think of all that’s happened in those 5 years, it has been quite the whirlwind, but through all of it our relationship and love (though it’s a bit of a cliche, it’s true) has only grown in strength….

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! 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…

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…

When UK blog Rock My Wedding featured Jessica & Justin’s delightful Yarra Valley wedding last week, they went so far as to say it might be one of the best weddings they will see this year…. and they may well be right! The warm light and dreamy photography, not to mention the bride & groom,…

Oh gosh is today’s wedding a treat! It gives me the greatest pleasure to introduce this inspirational real wedding – Alexia & Michael’s amazing celebration, captured by the lovely Darren at CK Metro Photos, which took place in Toowoomba (somewhere I had never heard of until I came across Darren and his blog, but that is definitely now on my…

I am so excited by today’s gorgeous real wedding, there is nothing not to love about it! 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…
