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 …
Today’s feature is this sweet and charming DIY vintage inspired wedding in Denver, Colorado, from Jessie Felix Photography. From the bride: Our wedding was a nice mix of traditional and eclectic, which tied together the Catholic heritage my groom and I share with our funkier, alternative, vintage aesthetic. It was important that this wedding highlighted …
This absolutely breathtaking vintage style wedding was shot over two days across the incredible scenery of southern Iceland. Photographer M&J Studios shot Maja and Patrick exploring the countryside after their private wedding ceremony (receptions with friends and family followed later.) These truly spectacular photos captured a one-of-a-kind couple and their stunning, one-of-a-kind wedding to …
Just a quick post today, a sort of mish-mash of art deco bits and pieces I’ve found while poking around the net for content for our site. The theme? Blue! Now, I myself am quite a superstitious sort, so you’d better believe I had my “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue” …
