Pretty things...oh why do I like pretty things?

I'm not usually one to post about fashion, but I'm getting married sometime within the next few years, and have been looking at bridal dresses, and these are just too fabulous not to share.  I forgot to save the designer and era information, but they're all from the 1930's, 40's & 50's

After wading through hundreds of white gowns in varying degrees of dullness, these colours and shapes are a welcome breath of fresh air.

I would get married in either of these two dresses:


I would put my Maid of Honour in one of these:


or maybe something like this:

 

This one's probably tacky as fuck but I still like it:


The other bridesmaids (if there are any) could pick something out of here:

 That's about the extent of my wedding planning so far.  I still don't know when, where, how and, occassionally, why we're getting married (I'm only joking of course.  He's a stellar sort of soulmate and I can't wait to hitch my wagon to his star).

I also need a theme, apparently, one that's a bit more festive than "poor".  These dresses are very affordable though, and that gives me hope.
