Before we move on to our third wedding of the day, I wanted to share this exquisite collection of images with you.  Featuring original vintage and vintage inspired bridal wear from Glory Days Vintage, and showcasing beautiful modern-day bridal headpieces by Vintage Bridal Millinery, this shoot sets out to steal the style of the 20's in the most elegant and inspiring of ways.

The Louise Brooks look-alike model is Hayley, owner of York based Glory Days Vintage – purveyors of unique original vintage and vintage inspired replica wedding dresses from every decades of the 20th century.  You must check out some of Hayley's other dresses that have featured on Love My Dress.  The majority of dresses stocked by Hayley are original vintage gowns that have been restored to near perfection. I completely adore them, and having spent the day exhibiting with Hayley only two weeks ago, I can speak first hand about their high quality. The dresses are all gorgeous, but some of them really are quite breathtaking.
