Antiquity has always had a soft spot in my heart~and we get brides requesting vintage styled weddings often, so I'm in love! I look forward to these weddings from the minute they book~and executing all the details on the special day is AWESOME!
Weddings have always represented the melding of the past with the future, and the bringing of two families together, but with a vintage wedding, brides and grooms are taking the idea of relishing the past a step further.
We all know the wedding tradition of "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" that a bride is supposed to wear on their wedding day. However, when a vintage wedding is being planned, the something old is expanded into much more, with anything from the wedding reception decor, to the wedding dress, to the wedding and engagement rings being authentic vintage collectibles or vintage style replicas. Planning a vintage wedding takes a lot of forethought and research. The bride and groom need to decide how far to go with the vintage theme, and what parts of their day will be the most meaningful for them and their guests. Decorating for your vintage wedding reception whether it is in a hall or your home, is one of the areas you can be most creative in your use of vintage wedding items. Finding exactly the right touch for your special day will take some time. Decisions need to be made as to what vintage look you are searching for, what period of time, what mood. Budget needs to be taken into consideration. How much is reasonable to spend on decor as opposed to other wedding reception factors, like food and location.
