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.

If somehow you’re not already familiar, one glance at their lookbook should be enough to win you over…. They’ve …
