Our next idea is this beautiful bridal look. The bride has a vintage style dress with a floral crown and the flowers used in the crown match the bouquet. This is a simple but stunning look that would be amazing for any bride. You can make the crown and bouquet unique to you by choosing your own flowers. It would particularly suit an outdoor or beach wedding.

10. Short Vintage Wedding Dress
If the long white dress isn’t for you then you could choose a cute shorter vintage dress like this one. This wedding dress has a 50’s look with the circle skirt. We love this dress because it is a modernized version of a classic design. The flash of pink is beautiful too. A dress like this is perfect for any bride who wants a vintage look.
