Vintage Details for your Wedding Day

Vintage Wedding Ideas

Vintage seems to be one of the most popular theme choices for weddings at the moment. There is something so interesting about vintage nods to fashion or style. It’s a fact, vintage is here to stay! Vintage aspects to your wedding can be a chance to show that you love tradition and have great respect for generations who have married before you. Here are a few fun ways to bring some vintage elements to your wedding!

Something old

‘Something old’ is the place to start for vintage! Does your mother, aunt or any relations have any heirlooms tucked away in their jewelry drawers? A handkerchief, brooch or hair pin perhaps?

Photographs

Photographs are a surprisingly fun and easy way to decorate your tables. Mix and match frames for a fun boho feel. We love the idea of matching up photos of the bride and groom with table numbers!

If there is a member of your family has passed away, why not commemorate them by adding a vintage photo to your bouquet?

Travel in Style

Maybe you’ve spent your summer evenings driving in the family car, or someone in your family is a vintage car fan. Classic cars are great for vintage style photos as well as romantic honeymoons!

Mom’s Vintage

A lot of mothers would be delighted to have their daughter wear their wedding gown. One of our favourite Throwback Thursday posts comes from a bride who did just that! But, what if the gown doesn’t fit? Or you don’t like the style? If your mother is willing, you could incorporate the gown into your bouquet or maybe use the material for an after ceremony dress.
