I know - how amazing is that? If you're a vintage lover and you're on the look out for a gown then read on...full details of how to enter are below...


Laura from AV Bridal:The seeds for AV Bridal were sown by my own wedding. I wanted a big vintage do, but didn't have a budget. The solution quickly became clear...learn how to do things myself! That's the main reason our dresses don't cost as much as some other places - I want to help people achieve the wedding they have always dreamed of.

For my dress I hunted down the style I had always wanted. Unfortunately, the one I could afford was a bit unloved so I set about having it restored. I loved working with the seamstress. I learnt all about the tiny details that make a wedding dress so special. I've embraced what I learnt and ensured that every element of what we do is special - from the moment your dress is delivered you'll be excited about the AV Bridal package in front of you.

It has taken a while to get AV Bridal going; from sourcing the right dresses and restoring them, to building a website and having pictures taken, it was a lot of work. (We also had our first child at the end of January, which added to the chaos.) But it has all been a fantastic journey and so worth it.

I love hunting out vintage pieces; trawling through dozens of things that aren't quite right before finding that one item that is just perfect. Knowing it will be someone's wedding dress is such a delightful pay-off - I adored my vintage dress so it is such a fantastic feeling knowing you will help a bride find the dress of her dreams. Our whole collection really is lovingly handpicked.

You could definitely describe it as a "family-run business" as it is me and Mum at the heart of it, with my Husband and Dad providing help with the less glamorous areas of setting up a business (the two of them have become spreadsheet experts).

I've always been interested in vintage design - whether it is the unashamed glamour of the 1920s or the more outrageous use of colour from the 1960s. Our wedding day was heavily influenced by classic-1920s and 30s looks, but I enjoy piecing an array of eras together to make something a bit different; we have an orange chair in our living room that is straight out of an office in Mad Men and a gorgeous old Singer sewing machine table; somehow it works together. It is great fun discovering what you can do with different vintage pieces.

We're offering two lovely readers the chance to win vouchers towards an AV Wedding dress. All you have to do is sign up to the RMW newsletter, follow us on Twitter or like us on Facebook then tweet or share your favourite dress from our range on the website to be in with a chance of winning a £250 Authentic Vintage Bridal voucher (or the second prize of a £100 voucher) which can be used towards any of the dresses in our range.
