Lilies!!

I see lilies.
And a gorgous veil!
And a handsome groom.
1920's

Isn't it sweet?

I love her dress.
And the fact that they both looks so damn happy.
This, I believe, dates around the early 1930's

Beautiful. I am dating this early 1940's
I got this at a antique show. I love it. Classic beauty.

Vintage Wedding Portraits

For those who follow my other blog "The Mini Naked Chef and Me"  this is my second love.

I've been collecting  wedding portraits for almost 9 years. I started right before my own wedding. I was in love and saw romance in everything (still do). So my first picture was bought (from the 20's) and my collection was born.  My collection spans from a picture taken in 1911 to a whole /WHOLE/ wedding album from the 50's!

I enjoy collecting these special moments and it truly breaks my heart when I find them given away or in Antique stores. I buy them or in some cases, they are given to me, and I treasure them. My dining room has pictures hanging all over. Amazingly, the DH does not mind. In fact, he goes hunting for these treasure with me.  He loves the hunt, I love the find. Win-win.
