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.

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.)

One of the best things about planning a wedding in modern times: the choices. So many choices! OK, so this can also be an overwhelming aspect of the planning process, and can at times …
Oh la la! Take a look at these lovelies: vintage inspired wedding gowns from designer Elizabeth Fillmore. First up, the perfectly-named “Starlet” dress. It feels a little 20s (the art deco crisscross of the bodice), a bit 30s (the draped silk charmeuse and and swoopy train) and a smidge 40s (hello, film noir glamour!) and …
