Did any of you attend The Vintage Wedding Fair held at the Brighton Corn Exchange yesterday? I would love to hear from you if so.
Of the various vintage wedding fairs taking place across the UK now, The Vintage Wedding Fair, hosted by Discover Vintage really is one of the best. Shows are held across the country, and are only £5 entry to enter {children go free}. You can expect to see around 400 beautiful original vintage wedding dresses from over 60 exhibitors at each show too.

Readers in York may also want to know about The Vintage Emporium, a shop that has been set up by the event organisers and that stocks a range of beautiful original vintage clothes and wedding dresses.
