The wedding dress exhibition

Today I went to the wedding dress exhibition down my local church (Smallburgh, St Peters Church). The dresses were beautiful, they were from lots of different times periods and were all so unique! These days all the brides are wearing strapless boob tube type dresses, but I think dresses with lace sleeves and a small collar are gorgeous! e.g. Kate Middeltons dress from when she married Prince William!
 My mum wore a dress with long lace sleeves with puffy shoulders and a long simple dress and still looked wonderful! 

Here are a few pictures I took!




The dress above is from 1987!

This is a very pale pink dress! Everyone goes for white or ivory these days!

Having a colorful pattern makes this dress even more unique!





This is a Japanese  Kimono!



This is a very sweet greeny blue paige boy outfit!

This is a Victorian style wedding dress!

I love the button detail on the front of this dress!

The gold leaf detailing on this dress goes so well with the lace!

This is my favorite dress! It's from the 1960's, the cuffs are so cute!




 Here are a some accessories that the brides wore!
The roses on these shoes are so cute! Don't see brides these days with flat silk shoes like these!

This is how simple wedding shoes used to be! Now they can be like 6 inch heels!!

These are flower garlands to accessorize the brides hair! 

This is a gorgeous veil! I would love to wear this kind when and if I get married :3!

Here is a pair of gloves and an umbrella! You never see brides with these any more!
Most of these dresses had been worn by two people the mother and the mothers daughter! I think that is great as the dress gets to be worn more than once and the daughter doesn't have to invest in one for herself!

What did you get up to this bank holiday?
