Looking to add a touch of Vintage Hollywood Glamour to your wedding day? In this blog we feature some of our favourite classic Hollywood inspired looks from the Hollywood ‘golden age’.
The Venue
Dark, moody, period venues work better for a classic Hollywood feel than brightly lit modern venues.
Sweeping staircases, chandeliers, and high ceilings all have a vintage glamorous vibe.
The dress
Look at classic Hollywood legends for inspiration for your Oscar worthy Vintage Hollywood wedding dress. Our favourite style icons from Hollywood bygone days are Audrey Hepburn, Lauren Bacall, Grace Kelly & Marylin Monroe.
You can’t go wrong with a long, fitted silk gown.
Or a vintage inspired non-white silk strapless dress
Or you could go all out 1950s Audrey Hepburn glamour with this black boat neck dress.
