Dear Reader,
Our gorgeous vintage bride this week is Suzanne – in an original vintage 1960s wedding dress by Priscilla of Boston…
Suzanne and Danish husband Jakob married in the impossibly chic surroundings of Lake Como. So the gown had a lot to live up to! But this super-stylish 1960s wedding dress was perfect: Suzanne looked fabulous the moment she first slipped it on – bringing a swoosh of 1960s Italian Riviera glamour to my West London dress studio…
In Suzanne's own words…
And the pictures speak for themselves, don't they – their wonderful event is straight out of a classic 1960s Hollywood movie!
If you'd like to see more of Suzanne and Jakob's glamorous Lake Como wedding, check out the great feature on wedding blog Rock My Wedding.
Love

In Suzanne's own words…
"I was never a child who knew the wedding dress of their dreams. And so it was through a little web research of possible stores that started the trail. I visited one other store and even discussed the possibility of modifying my mother’s wedding dress with a designer before stumbling upon Heavenly Vintage Brides."
"Helena invited my Maid of Honour and I into her house and up to her beautifully styled Dressing Room. Categorised by era, each vintage dress was meticulously kept. The dress I chose was designed by Priscilla of Boston who designed the bridesmaid dresses for Grace Kelly!"
"It really fit me like a glove and felt incredible on. Both classic but stylish, I was happy with the decision and couldn't believe I had chosen a dress with long sleeves, a high neck and a long train for an Italian wedding!"
And the pictures speak for themselves, don't they – their wonderful event is straight out of a classic 1960s Hollywood movie!
