This amazing 1980s bead-fringed piece is a real showstopper. It's a beautiful dress, but I always knew it would take a special bride to wear it and truly make it her own...
Super-stylish taxidermist Jo married web designer Aki in Bristol, in a wedding she describes as "kind of 60s mod / Dusty Springfield goes wild in Morocco".
From the Moroccan themed venue, to the seashell-clad cake, to the entertainment provided by Bristol Ukelele Club (of which Jo is a founder member), two belly dancers and a magician, the whole day was a quirky and individual success!
As Jo says,
"There is absolutely nothing I would change about our wedding. And I love my dress so much I’ve already worn it again to a party at the Lord Mayor of London's house!"
What a super-cool vintage bride! If you'd like to see more of Jo and Aki's gorgeous photos, their wedding also featured in RocknRollBride.
