Real Bride - Lenna is all kinds of fabulous!

When I first spied Lenna's photos on Instagram after she's tagged us, I thought it must have been from an editorial photoshoot! But no, she's one of our fierce and fabulous real brides!

Lenna chose an incredible 1950's full length, lace wedding dress. It had the most amazing tiered tulle detail on the back.

I think Lenna's soft, slightly undone hairstyle and rustic bouquet were the perfect match to her dress. They added a romantic, natural element.

Congratulations to Lenna and her new Hubby!  

Real Bride Aoife - The cutest lace 70's dress!

Our stunning bride Aoife wore the prettiest, lace, knee length wedding dress from the 1970's for her wedding. She chose one of our full underskirts to add a fun, vintage feel.

Aoife added a belt and adorable veil to complete her look.

Congratulations to Aoife and her new hubby on their recent wedding!

Real Bride: Prepare Yourselves For This Romantic Elopement!

When Dirty Fabulous bride, Lais sent her wedding photos in, they were all so incredible it was hard to narrow down which ones to post! These are just a selection from what must be one of the most romantic weddings we've ever seen.

Lais and her hubby Patrick, chose to have an elopement in Glenveagh, Donegal. Apart from hair and make-up in the morning, the only person to spend the day with the couple was their amazing photographer  from This Modern Love. 

We think Lais looked mesmerising in her Dirty Fabulous 1960's lace wedding dress and veil. We also created a dramatic feather headpiece in peacock tones to match Lais's shoes for her to wear later in the day. It made a striking silhouette that we adored!

Sit back and enjoy a feast for the eyes and soul....

Real Bride - The Happiest Vintage Bride!

Real bride, Maeve's photos are so full of joy that they can't help but bring a big smile to your face!
She chose a beautiful, vintage lace wedding gown with a hi-low skirt and 1930's feel, for her big day. The relaxed elegance of her dress was totally perfect for her.
We just adore these photos!
Congratulations to Maeve and her new hubby!

A Charming Bridal Inspiration Shoot!

This beautiful wedding inspiration shoot was featured recently on One Fab Day so head over to their amazing site for the full shoot by photographer Katya Koliban.

Rosedale House was the ideal setting for this romantic and feminine shoot (can I please go there just to soak up the darling atmosphere!). 

The brides vintage lace dress, veil and cream floral headpiece were chosen from Dirty Fabulous to compliment the dreamy setting.

To showcase the headpieces and reflect the vintage charm of the shoot the wonderful Claire Barry kept the hair loose and gentle.

And my word the flowers and cakes... STUNNING!

Long Sleeve Wedding Dresses!

Many of us (myself included) like to have a bit of cover for the tops of our arms and this doesn't change when it comes to The Dress on the big day. We've seen requests for wedding dresses with sleeves grow each year. Thankfully this is one trend that's here to stay.

I think there's something incredibly elegant and alluring about wedding dresses that are less revealing. Gone are the days when we have to have everything on show to up the glamour stakes.

Beautifully tailored wedding dresses mean you can have it all... coverage and hotness (yip we still want to look hot on our wedding day!). 

Vintage wedding dresses often have lace, sheer or detailed sleeves and are the original trend setters. If you'd prefer to bare a little bit of skin then consider having your vintage dress made backless. BOOM... now you have it all!
