Rock n Roll Bride!

To say that we're obsessed with the 1950s would be an understatement...and we're even more head over heels for the current influx of rockabilly inspired weddings! We adore the wicked sense of style and badass, rebellious attitude it evokes as well as being the epitome of elegance. From dazzling pearls and crystals to huge fit and flare silhouettes we simply love the charm and nostalgia surrounding these shindigs. Why not go full on fifties for your event, hire a rock n roll band and centre it around a Grease themed carnival or simply hint at a vintage look and work the arched eyebrows and 50s flick?

Feature: The Frosted Petticoat

You could hire out a 50s diner to really get the party started as who wouldn't  love jiving and dancing the night away ? Or for any musicians amongst us make your guestbook your instrument of choice and play a tune for your guests! Perhaps tempt your guests with a Sailor Jerry  themed cake to really make a statement.

Feature: ELLE France

Get the rockabilly bridal look and style your hair in smooth curls and adorn yourself in shimmering crystals like these gorgeous Tassel Earrings . Pair with a ruby red pout and a dusting of blusher and your all set!

Emily & Fin Tuscan Landscape Dress

Daisy Print Prom Dress

For your bridesmaids there's these stunning printed pastel prom dresses, which would look awesome teamed with tulle petticoats and killer heels! 

How Would You Pop The Question?

As some of you may be aware, yesterday was in fact  National Proposal Day! People from all across the country use this as an opportunity to propose or hint to their significant other that they are thinking along the lines of marriage bells! We thought we'd celebrate by rounding up our favourite ways to pop the question!

Wow an offer of macaroons and matrimony! What more could you ask for? We'd say this bodes well for a happy future together :).

Now this is certainly one way to get their attention and anyone else in the vicinity! We love the effort that has gone into this proposal plan.

Think Unique: Alternative Bridesmaid Ideas For Your Wedding Day

Yes we know the bride is the babe of the ball but we shouldn't forget the best mates! The bridesmaids will want to strut their stuff too, they are on display ALL DAY…so why not give them something to show off? Styling your bridesmaids in vintage style will give you a completely unique bridal party. It’s one of the most memorable days of your whole entire life, so go ahead and make it uber-special by creating something no one else will have…

We know some of you love your girls to be all matchy-matchy, but if your dreams are made of rainbows, why not try different colours together? You can vary by style and even by fabric.

What a cool alternative idea for bridesmaids! (via rocknrollbride.com)

We totally love the idea of teaming your bridesmaids up with similar style dresses in different colours! Take a look at our lace dresses below...

You could even try different styles, same colour. This makes it super easy to cater for all your girls, by letting them wear a dress to suit their shape!

We adore this pattern combo! (via modernwedding.com.au)
