Today we’re going to talk about one of our favorite looks: the classic elegance of vintage style long sleeve wedding gowns. 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 seem like it may break you…
But! But: being able to pick your style, your vows, your venue, and the aesthetic of your wedding is something some modern brides might almost take for granted. For a long time, you didn’t get to choose the style of your wedding dress: there was one style, and that was it. Variations within, of course, but the selection in a bridal shop in 1985 was certainly a lot more uniform than the selection today.
Which brings us to today’s collection of some of our favorite vintage style long sleeve wedding gowns (alright, some elegant 3/4 sleeve wedding dresses as well). Choices! No strapless, sweetheart necklines here: these wedding gowns are classic, lovely, and besleeved. We’ve included a few from earlier collections, as well as some recent designs currently available online. Take a look!

This season offers a wide variety of shapes, materials and silhouettes to choose from. So take a …

First up, you’ll …
Spring has sprung, summer is just around the corner, and we wanted to make sure you didn’t miss the new 1920s inspired wedding gowns in BHLDN‘s summer collection, because there are some true stunners… I absolutely adore that image, from their Summer lookbook. Also… if someone has the guts to do it (and the ability/willingness …
If you’re planning a vintage theme wedding (an art deco wedding, a 1920s wedding, a 1930s wedding… basically any beautiful vintage era), then you probably already know about BHLDN, the vintage wedding focused offshoot of Anthropologie. If somehow you’re not already familiar, one glance at their lookbook should be enough to win you over…. They’ve …
