I love the idea of a full on vintage wedding – imagine the stylish photo album that would produce! It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, I’m sure, but if you’re a lover of vintage there’s tons of pre-loved gowns around. Even better, you’ll be going green by recycling one of the thousands of gowns worn every year since year dot.

Elizabeth’s Vintage Closet has a wide variety of vintage clothing, but while browsing I stumbled upon some very lovely vintage bridal gowns. This 1960s gown captured my heart. Clearly high fashion at the time, this sequin gown is unusual but still effortlessly stylish. It’s available at the bargain price of £95 in a UK size 8. Pittance to pay for a one off that your guests won’t soon forget.
