Oh my, do I have a treat for you this Monday morning! I hope you have nothing important to do today because this seriously stunning wedding with a dash of deco captured by Lavara Photography is going to have you thinking of nothing else all day!

Hello lovelies! Those of you who have been visiting Chic Vintage Brides for some time, may remember back before Christmas, after you all loved my 5 Perfect Palettes for an Autumn Wedding so much, that I promised the perfect palette posts would become a more regular feature. Well, after a long cold Winter for many…

Good morning lovelies! For all of you still shivering through the midst of Winter, I have just the thing to warm you up and brighten your day this cold Monday morning. Today’s lush Spring wedding inspiration shoot from Toni Larsen Photography is full of the most creative and utterly gorgeous floral styling from Chic Vintage Brides favourite and…

Good morning lovelies! The super-talented, and very lovely, florist extraordinaire Toni from Magdalen Hill is back today with her fourth bouquet recipe – oh and if you missed the other three do take a peek here, the first one, a hand tied Autumn bridal bouquet, especially was a MUST see – it had a matching flower necklace!. For those of you who…

Whilst here in NZ the summer is a scorcher, meaning lots of lovely lazy days in the garden and dining outdoors (which always makes me feel a little Mediterranean?!) I know many of you remain in the midst of Winter, so I am starting the week with a Winter warmer for you! A romantic Spring wedding inspiration board in…

Good morning lovelies! I knew there was only one post I could share today after starting the week yesterday in such a magical way, with that snowy Winter wonderland wedding (do take a look here if you missed it, it really is a must see) and that is with a beautifully whimsical bridal bouquet recipe. This time florist and stylist…

Good morning lovelies, oh my goodness, you are going to ADORE today’s wedding! Who wouldn’t love a wedding that features a bride wearing a dress created by her mum, the sweetest flower girls, a Vintage VW Camper, fish & chip canapes and a reception in an incredible Georgian Country House chocka with DIY decor and details?! All captured through the sensitive eye…

So, yesterday I shared 5 of Pantone’s Top 10 Colours for Spring 2015 Weddings- if you missed it, you can see it here (and read all about who the heck Pantone are and why you should care what colours they picked!) I promised then that you wouldn’t have to wait long for the second 5, so without…

Good morning! A couple of weeks ago Pantone released their colour picks for Spring 2015 and it has me, and indeed the whole wedding world, rather excited. Now you may be wondering who the heck is Pantone? And, why on earth should you care what colours they pick for next Spring? Well, remember last year how…

Hello lovelies! It’s been a rather beautiful beginning to the week here, with the sun out, the birds singing and yesterday’s breathtaking elopement. I hope you didn’t miss it because with a flower crown adorned bride in a Claire Pettibone dress,  and a stunning backdrop it really was rather special. Proof that elopements can be just…

There is something so utterly romantic about elopements! To me they are special, because there can be nothing on earth so intimate as being almost entirely alone exchanging vows with the one you love. And the only way I can think of, to possibly make it any more idyllic is to elope somewhere magical, surrounded by nature….. I…

This week is starting to look as though it might have a distinctly Spring feel to it! Did you see yesterday’s Spring wedding inspiration board? Aren’t those pretty shades of blue and greyed jade just the most fab alternative to the traditional pinks and pastels of the season. Today I am continuing our stroll into Spring…

Hello lovelies, another Monday is upon us. But despair not, because do I have the loveliest inspiration board for you today! Especially for all those of you coming to the end of Winter, I have mixed shades of blue with the greyed jade to create a bright and pretty palette just perfect for a Spring wedding……..

Morning lovelies, how was your weekend? Mine was tremendously exciting (for those who don’t follow CVB on Facebook, here’s why! :)) Aside from dreaming of that little fella, I have mostly spent the weekend feeling all inspired by the beautiful roses in our cottage garden. They run the whole way along the front, just outside…

Today’s post was the perfect pick-me-up for a cold, wet Autumn Monday morning. This is one for the boys, it is the last of Chic Vintage Brides series of posts on seasonal Boutonnieres…..and I do believe I may well have saved the best for last! Whilst Autumn Boutonnieres have the depth of colour and rich palettes,…
