Nikki and Po’s Gorgeous St. John Beach Wedding by One Love Photo

nikkipo0179-l

Nikki and Po’s ga-ga-gorgeous destination wedding is just plain stunning. From Nikki’s beautiful dress (love the bow!) that most brides wouldn’t consider for a beach wedding (and they would clearly be wrong) to knowing that every destination wedding should keep the party going with late night cake eating, this wedding is perfection. Nikki and Po were married in the Virgin Islands on St. John and all of the festivities, including a day-after trip to the local ruins, were captured by One Love Photo, who you may remember as one of Delightfully Engaged’s favorite photographers of last year.

Candy Anthony Rocks the Short, Vintage Wedding Dress

I’ve gotta get it out on the table – I have a very soft spot in my heart for a tea-length wedding dress. They’re full of personality, super-flattering and the way they spin! I can tell you from experience that if you were ever a little girl who tested a dress’ “spin factor” before committing to wearing it, a vintage, tea-length gown is the way to go.

And, no one is rocking the look harder than London designer, Candy Anthony. Their new collection is full of their signature ’50s- and ’60s-inspired dresses that feel, rather than costume-y, totally British and cool (I think it has something to do with the oversized veils…). And while they have a distinctly retro feel, all of the dresses are original designs made right in the UK.

If you’re not sure how it would translate to your wedding day, head over to their site and check out their client gallery. They have photos of brides wearing their designs at everywhere from beach weddings to black tie affairs at country estates.

Comfy, Vintage-Inspired Shoes from Hey Lady

After an all-night Vegas dance party and a pair of uncomfortable wedding shoes, twins Jessica and Emily began to think that there had to be a way to marry comfort with killer-looking pair of heels. Why shouldn’t you be able to dance all night and still be able to walk in the morning? So, they set about creating Hey Lady, spending a full year working on the comfort features of their shoes, ensuring that future brides wouldn’t need to suffer the indignity of bare feet at her wedding.

And, their shoes not only feature all sorts of support (an insole with shock-absorbent memory foam, a balanced and centered heel, to name a few) but they are cool! They really do have something for everyone. Their At Tiffany’s first caught my eye as a perfect vintage-inspired heel, delicate yet still funky.

And how pretty is their Princess Buttercup with the bow in back (and, fine, I’m a sucker for anything that has men running around saying, “As you wish.”)princess-buttercup-heels-ribbon-bow-weddingprincess-buttercup-heels-ribbon-bows-heels-wedding

Elegantly Simple Wedding Dresses from Justina McCaffrey

Justina McCaffrey’s collection of wedding dresses covers a large range of styles – a sheath dress with lace overlay that feels very now; a classic Princess cut with sweetheart neckline that looks, well, princess-esque; a Jackie-O fairy tale ball gown; a mermaid cut that marries fitted lace detailing with a silk train. What they have all in common though is that not one of them looks overdone.

Rather each one has a simplicity and elegance about it while still making a (subtle) statement. This is going to sound really cheesy but I feel like these dresses let you be the star of the show – they’re just going to help you along on your journey.

This is just a taste of what Justina has to offer. Head over to her site to see her full collection.
