What kind of bride are you..?

Vintage Bridal Jewellery is delighted to introduce an extension of its range of vintage and vintage inspired accessories. We have collated a few of the trends influencing our collection.

Bride type -  romantic, nature lover, spiritual, tranquil 

   

 

Butterflies

                                           

In keeping with the nature trend, butterfly motifs are never far from bridal fashion. Having one in your hair adds a playful touch to your overall look.

COLOUR HINTS

Black and White
