vintage wedding inspiration

My beautiful mother, Melanie, circa 1969
These lovely + inspiring vintage wedding photos make me wish I had a time machine that could transport us back, say, 40 to 60ish years for our big day. Sigh.

    Such beautiful, beautiful dresses. I have always wanted a vintage dress because I am so in love with the one my Grandma wore (ballerina length lace). I find the shorter ones appeal to me so much more than a huge strapless meringue do. Nice blog by the way. x
