Weddings from the Past: AntiqueDress.com

For someone who loves lace, these dresses are an absolute treat! I find it fascinating to see how the fashion has changed over the years and these dresses from AntiqueDress.com provide a lovely overview of wedding gowns from 1837 up until the 1960's and a pink Albert Capraro Couture designer gown from 1981, likely inspired by Princess Diana's famous wedding dress. Although I enjoy seeing the style of each era, the Edwardian dresses remain my hands-down favourite! Here's yet another gallery of Weddings from the Past. I've included some detailed pictures of some of the gowns but there are more dresses and images to be discovered at the website!
