Attention everyone searching for a the perfect vintage wedding dress! The Vintage Bride is about to become your best friend...
The Vintage Bride is an amazing resource for authentic vintage wedding items — dresses from pre-WWII to the 1960s, they have vintage veils, heck, they even have vintage cake toppers!
Since all of the dresses from The Vintage Bride are actually vintage (no reproductions here) they are all one of a kind, many were even hand sewn, AND they're an eco-friendly choice, as you are re-using these gowns.
Each dress you see on The Vintage Bride has been selectively chosen for its unique details and flattering style. And there are tons of variety on the site — big and pouffy, to sexy and slinky.
Hi, have you met my favorite dress? Yeah, seriously, I'd rock this in a freaking heartbeat and I'd never take it off. And it's under $1000. In fact, most of the dresses are under $1000 and a lot of them are as low as $325.
And don't let small sizes discourage you — Rose, the owner of The Vintage Bride tells us that most of the dresses have trains that could provide enough fabric for a seamstress to add some panels if necessary.
The Vintage Bride even has perfect dresses for your rehearsal dinner, send-off outfits or civil ceremonies, like cocktail style dresses with matching jackets, like this beauty...
"This is a small business. I live in an old 1930's cottage on a bluff above the Pacific Ocean and have a studio loft in our attic. It is there, on my pink floor that I make the boxes, the business cards, and the magic. I take great care in every detail. I want brides to gush and swoon when they open their box — that's what getting your wedding dress is all about — you've got to fall in love with your dress."-Rose, the owner of the The Vintage Bride
Oh and did we mention free shipping? Yeah, there's that.
So let's see... beautiful, truly vintage dresses, affordable prices and styles to fit every bride, one of a kind items AND free shipping? Yes. So head over to The Vintage Bride and find a wedding dress to fall in love with.

The site is so wonderful! It complements the feel of OBB perfectly. I particularly like the section about "Love Story" – clearly the owner is very sensitive to the history and emotion tied up in these dresses. Makes me wish I was getting married again just so I could get one of these for my dress
Thanks for sharing!
