Audrey Hepburn and Roman Holiday

I adore Audrey Hepburn.  She’s an icon who was also a class act and great humanitarian.  She’s inspired designers for decades and made the little black dress iconic, but her many other films demonstrate a variety of styles that are just as classic.

She was also recently deemed the greatest Hollywood beauty (read article here) topping the list above Angelina Jolie (2nd place) and Grace Kelly (3rd place).  So its only fitting that she be an inspiration for wedding style!  This is the first installment of Audrey inspired Inspiration Boards!

Audrey’s Roman Holiday

This board is of course inspired by Audrey Hepburn’s film Roman Holiday.  The wedding dress by Maggie Sottero was chosen because of its similarity in style in Princess Ann’s dress (top image above).  Jewelry and hairstyle are all reminiscent of Audrey’s Princess Anne. The bridesmaids dress evokes the outfit worn by Audrey (bottom image above) and is also very modern & chic!  We cannot forget the Vespa which you can use for sweetheart photos, as a prop for guestbook photos, and your getaway “car” at the end of the night!  To really go full circle, take your reception outdoors and go with an old Italy theme with everything from the decor to the food.
