There is a wonderful choice of venues suitable for a vintage style wedding. An old barn, a rustic garden, an open marquee, converted warehouse or an old country church are the perfect setting for a charm filled vintage celebration.
The wedding invitations are a wonderful opportunity to set the tone for your wedding and embrace a bygone era whether it be timeless glamour or rustic charm. The chosen colour palette should reflect the style which would traditionally be soft pastels or earthy tones to blend for a rustic location.
This style of wedding is a wonderful opportunity to incorporate some relics of the past including Polaroid cameras, an old fashioned lemonade stand, old wedding photographs of parents and the opportunity to incorporate some fun activities for guests such as outdoor lawn games including Bocce..
Depending on the era you are referencing, the wedding dress will be the perfect showcase for your vintage inspired wedding. With parasols and hoop skirts encompassing the 1800’s, silk dresses and headbands of the 20’s, Hollywood glamour of the 30’s, lace or satin dresses of the 40’s through to the rock and roll era tea length dresses of the 50’s, the possibilities are endless. The groomsmen attire can complement the wedding dress, with waistcoats dominating the early 1900’s and hats offering a quirky individual aspect to this attire.
