Vintage style wedding means incorporating family heirlooms and past sensibilities into life’s celebrations. We applaud that trend and subscribe to the belief that history and tradition form a cornerstone to any marriage. Step inside this timeless look that was recently featured on Bridal Musings.
A Trendy Expression

Just because you love heirloom lace doesn’t mean you have to wear Grandma’s wedding dress, as this thoroughly modern gown proves. It’s every bit as romantic as “old-fashioned” wedding fashion, but just daring enough to speak a modern language!

Layer on the Romance

Set the perfect wedding table with a mix of organdy, lace, and soft colors, but add an unexpected twist with dove grey napkins and softly frosted champagne flutes. This is elegance at its best, and it benefits from the unexpected addition of a bit of black.

White and Pale

Demure and totally traditional, this wedding table drips with romantic appeal, emphasizing the Victorian principle of “too much is never enough” with voluminous folds of soft linen and dripping displays of pale blooms along the length of the table.
Silver and Gold Highlights

Wispy greens, a mix of pale roses and simpler flowers, candles in clear and golden holders, and layers of linen and lace are woven into a table setting that is perfectly restrained yet reflects an aura of abundance. What a delightfully romantic expression!
Victorian Influences

One cannot help but appreciate the Victorian preference for overindulgence. In this view it is difficult to know where the table ends and the rest of the event space begins, but it is perfectly orchestrated and breathtakingly beautiful.

Understated Elegance

It’s all a matter of perspective. Another view of the same table setting shows the restrained and understated combination of white, ivory and grey, and a balanced combination of simple and ornate. Individual place settings have a wintry vibe with embellished china topping silver chargers.

It’s All About Details

When adhering to a vintage theme, the success lies in the details. Here an ornate flatware pattern reinforces the return to vintage elegance, seed pearls enhance the look of hand embroidery, and layered finery completes the picture.
Black and White

The return to black and white for wedding photography should not be so surprising. We live life in colorful surroundings. Why not capture traditional wedding bliss with a camera lens that looks back to past generations for inspiration? We like the trend toward vintage, but in the case of the perfect wedding, why not enjoy the best of both worlds.
This is truly the kind of wedding reception little girls dream of. Make it a celebration to remember!
