The past decades are a wealth of beautiful and occasionally crazy fashions, and wedding fashions are no exception. If you got married in the 60s or 70s, there’s a good chance you wore one of these styles. Did you have a simple skirt suit or short dress for a courthouse wedding? Or a more extravagant satin gown with a cathedral train? Perhaps a full, long sleeved, lace dress?  

Is your wedding dress back in fashion?

Recently, more and more weddings are following the traditions of yesterday. What a blast from the past! Your wedding dress has now, over time, fallen into the category of “vintage”. Who would have guessed that your wedding dress would be worn in the 21st century?
