This would be a great choice for someone who prefers a softer look. It’s also very versatile, as it could be worn again at other parties or events. I’d say it has a bit of a Thirties look about it, if you like vintage styles.

Here’s another vintage piece – I do love vintage clothes! This could have been a wedding dress originally, so it would be nice to see it used for the same purpose by another bride. The dress is a lovely soft lavender color, and very typical of the 1930s style as seen in films of the era.

No, this one isn’t a vintage original! Medieval/renaissance style gowns are becoming very popular among people looking for a themed wedding. The great thing about this type of dress is that it is available in a variety of colors and sizes, and would look stunning on a plus-sized bride.

The good thing about buying a vintage dress for your wedding is that you will be buying what is now a one-off. You won’t see anything like this lovely full-skirted dress on another bride. Clothes were also of beautiful quality in those days, and if you love the era you will be sure to find more opportunities to wear this dress.

What would you wear if you got married – traditional white or something different? If you’re already married, and you opted for an alternative dress, what did people say? How did you feel?
