Once In a Blue Moon

This rarely happens to vintage shop owners, but when it does it is VERY exciting...A few years ago there was a beautiful 70's gown that I used in a photo shoot and sold quickly thereafter.  It was featured in Vintage Indie's Wedding Guide and I have gotten countless emails over the years about this dress.  Recently, I stumbled upon the exact same dress on one of my buying trips.  It actually had burgundy ribbon instead of the blue in the first photo, but I removed it.  This is the perfect dress for a vintage style wedding! Now available in the Shop.

A Dreamy Vintage Wedding in Venice

When I package up a wedding dress and send it off, I feel so excited and I dream of the pretty lady that will be wearing it on her special day.  Though never in my dreams have I imagined a bride looking this beautiful and the backdrop of her wedding being more romantic.  An outdoor wedding in Venice...amazing!!!  She wore a lovely bolero and sash over the dress which I think dressed it up a bit for the ceremony, then later you can see the lace sleeves which are also very sweet.  After the wedding Sarah sent me these photos with a wonderful email, her words:

"Thanks very much Beth!
It turned out to be a truly magical wedding. I felt beautiful in my vintage dress! The guys walked through the streets of Venice and the girls arrived by boat to meet at the Campo de L'Abazia. The ceremony was simple, followed by photographs and champagne. Then we found ourselves part of an impromptu parade as we walked from the Campo to the dinner venue, with well wishes from strangers speaking italian and everyone clapping!!!"

I am so thrilled that Salvage Life was a part of Sarah's fabulous wedding and I wish her the most wonderful life with her new husband!
