Ever since Megan Markle stunned us with her classic bateau-neckline wedding dress, we’ve been loving this regal look.
The bateau or boatneck neckline features a wide, high neckline that follows the natural curve of ones collarbone and traditionally ends at the shoulder points. The style was actually made famous by Audrey Hepbrun in the 1954 film Sabrina, thus earning the nickname ‘Sabrina neckline’.
Bateau necklines give an effortlessly vintage and classic feel, perfect for the timeless bride. Here are a few of our favourites:

A surprise proposal, a public proposal, a quiet and intimate proposal. All considered extremely romantic. But, you almost never see people talking about mutual proposals while gushing about…
The coronavirus pandemic has affected people beyond the scope of what we thought possible. A simple thing like spending time together has been taken away from many considered ‘high-risk’.
Such is the story of Bob and Nancy Shellard from Vernon, Connecticut. The pair celebrates their 67th wedding anniversary this year. However, due to the Covid-19 outbreak, Bob was not allowed inside the nursing home Nancy is staying in. The governor of Connecticut had banned nursing home visits for 30 days for concern of the health of the elderly.
The couple have never spent their anniversary apart, and Bob was not about to allow this to be the first time. He decided to celebrate outside Nancy’s window at the nursing home by holding up a sign that read “I’ve loved you 67 years and still do. Happy Anniversary.”
In response, Nancy sent air kisses and waves from inside the nursing home.
“It makes me feel bad because I want her down with me and I know she can’t be,” Bob told NBC Connecticut.
Speaking to NBC Connecticut, the couple’s daughter Laura said, “They have always been an inspiration to us and I think just seeing every year go by that they still express it in some way on their anniversary.”
“It’s just been an example for us, for all of us of kids. So all four of us have really learned a lot from them and I can only hope that I have half as much as what they have shared over the years.”

If you’ve ever wanted to get married in the bush, then you’re lucky to call Africa your home. Say “I do” with a pair of elephants as your…
Brittany Snow was a blushing bride this weekend. The Pitch Perfect actress said ‘I do’ to longtime beau Tyler Stanaland this past Saturday in an intimate ceremony at Cielo Farms in Malibu, California.
Snow wore a long-sleeved wedding dress with a low back for her big day. Her hair was pinned back in a low bun and adorned with white flowers. Tyler and his groomsmen donned black tuxedos and Converse shoes.
According to reports, the bride walked down the aisle with her beloved pet pooch Billie by her side. As it rained on the day, the ceremony was moved from the lawn area to a covered terrace.
The pair began dating in 2018 when Stanaland, a realtor, reached out to the actress via Instagram.
“I knew of Britt for obvious reasons,” Stanaland told The Knot. “But Britt was my unattainable crush forever. As a man, I used to watch ‘Pitch Perfect’ with friends and, ‘Brittany Snow… One day.’ But never thinking it would ever happen.”
“I sent a direct message with the most embarrassing pickup line. A dad joke,” he explains. “I’m so surprised we’re getting married.”
I saw his Instagram and knew of him,” Snow also told The Knot. “And was like, ‘That is the best looking man ever.’ I always knew of him and was like, I’ll never meet him. My girlfriends and I had an inside joke where my one best friend referred to him as my ‘dream boyfriend who lives in Orange County,’ but I was never gonna meet him. And then one day I realized he was following me on Instagram. I got really excited.”
Congrats to the happy couple!
