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.

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.)

So we thought we’d send off the season with a look back at this sweet vintage style winter wedding from Copper and Coal Photography. This …
It’s hot as can be where we are (how ’bout you?), and we’re feeling like this beautiful National Park winter wedding is just what we need to cool off and swoon over. Because…. blizzard! The views, the details, the dress: this gorgeous, intimate elopement is a winter wonderland from start to finish. From the …
A quick post today, just 10 days before Halloween, to rave about this incredible zombie flapper makeup tutorial I found on YouTube. It doesn’t start out zombie-y. It starts out oh-so-lovely-y: But then…if you are not a fan of the scary and the gory and the maybe-some-fake-blood-would-be-awesome kinda Halloween fun, seriously: avert your eyes now. …
