I love vintage weddings and it seems as if brides-to-be agree with me. Lately I’ve been seeing a huge increase in vintage weddings and I’m thrilled to have loads of inspiration for you! A vintage theme is the perfect way to pay tribute to your favorite decade, movie, or even a beloved family member. Your wedding can take place just about anywhere, including the coast, a historic mansion or hotel, a garden, movie theater, or even an old train station. Be sure to add in plenty of props like vintage books, china, postcards, and even old luggage and parasols. Vintage tins filled with flowers m... |
I love old things. I love the sense of history behind them, their character and charm. When I was first planning my wedding and thinking about what type of “look” or “feel” I was going for, vintage came to mind. I don’t want my wedding to be a costume party, but I do want that classic look that isn’t so rooted in today’s trends that in 10 years I’ll be groaning over my photos! I want something pretty and classic with a nod to both the past and today. Today, many brides are going for the vintage look in their weddings whether it be tea length dresses, birdcage veils, or othe... |

Brooches, pillbox hats, vintage style hairdos and dresses - so cool.Photos: Bella Figura, The Brides Cafe,... |

Meet Georgie and Patrick. You’re going to like Georgie and Patrick. Because I sure did. First of all, we’re hitting Australia today with this cute vintage wedding.

Vintage fashion has become quite a famous trend; it’s like it has taken over the whole world. Even brides are crazy about this fashion trend.

It is considered quite an art and its essence lies in the respect and admiration of the style of some decades (usually 1... |
Matches made in heaven. There are many combinations in life that, once put together, just seem to fit perfectly. Like puzzle pieces. I have the pleasure of seeing these matches every day.

I knew so from the second I laid eye on their cute, vintage engagement photos, but these lovely photos sealed the deal. They’re just cuteness squared. And you’ll be happ... |

I’ve had my heart set on showing one of his weddings for a long time and this is finally the wedding we’re lucky enough to get our mitts on. And it’s INSANELY COOL. As far as vintage weddings go, this Washington vintage wedding is pretty much as rad as they come. The blue, yellow and purple color palette is just dreamy and a throw back to the 50’s. With all the DIY design elements going on in this wedding, you won’t be surprised to hear that Karli, our bride, is an artist.... |
This week I am obsessed with vintage wedding cards and invitations. Keep an eye on my twitter @inviteartist for {Vintage} wedding cards tweets this week. During my research, I found sweet, painted, vintage wedding cards with flowers, bells, ribbon, bells, and more bells. The hand painted strokes on the card designs were just lovely. Mixing a “dry brush stroke” painting technique and traditional watercolor. I then found a true vintage wedding invitation from 1938.
