We’re back! Sorry for the delay in posting, it has been a crazy few weeks. But here we are. And tonight we’ve got a lovely set of vintage wedding photos courtesy of Michelle McMurray, founder of Wedding Story Writer. These images are scans of actual wedding photos from the 1920s and 30s, and there are so many fascinating details to be inspired by!
First up, this elegant lady, resplendent in pearls, white opera gloves and a to-die-for jeweled art nouveau / art deco headband.
Can’t you just feel how luxe those fabrics are, even through the sepia? Amazing.
Now for some bridal party inspiration… check out these dapper fellows and their dates.
Gorgeous! All of it. Love the tuxes, the short dresses (even on the bride!), the hair, the cap veil, and those huge 20s style overflowing, draped bouquets (note to self: need to do a “huge 20s bouquet” post soon.) And speaking of fabulous florals…
Simply lovely (and perfect hair!). Also lovely? Our next bride, smiling and stunning on her wedding day.
And finally: this beaded cap-veiled beauty. Check out those metallic flapper t-strap shoes (and the edgy deco backdrop for this photo, dated May 17th, 1930.)
In search of more 1920’s wedding dresses to feature, we recently stumbled upon a designer we were instantly, madly, deeply in love with. The designer? Galia Lahav. The photo that took our breath away (and zoomed this post to the top of the queue)? Take a look: GASP. That’s kind of all there is to …
Up today we have a romantic North Carolina waterfall elopement from Simply Eloped and Cappy Phalen Photography. Emily and Marko chose to elope in Asheville’s DuPont State Park at Triple Falls. Their ceremony backdrop was a gorgeous waterfall, and after they were married, they popped champagne, toasted to their marriage, and indulged in a box …
What a great find from GlamourDaze! A promotional video from the ’30s with five different featured hairstyles (or as the oh-so-delightful announcer puts it, “five new creations for mi’lady’s coiffure.”) These are some seriously gorgeous looks, mi’ladies! ( I also really enjoy how annoyed the brunette on the left looks. She is the Kristen Stewart …
We’ve featured the 1920s inspired dresess of Jenny Packham before, and you all have probably already seen this year’s collection as well, as the images were released earlier in the year (though several of the dresses still haven’t been…). But we would be remiss if we didn’t post this collection anyway because OH MY GOD …
