A wedding is one of the biggest days in anyone's life. As with everything, the trends of how to hold the wedding change almost every year. One of the hottest trends this year is the vintage wedding or vintage themed wedding. Vintage can be any era from the Victorian times to the 1950s. If you have just got engaged and plan to marry this year, then here are some pointers on this hottest wedding trend of the year.
1. From vintage wedding dresses to wedding photographs taken in a style reminiscent of the 40s and 50s, there are many ways you can go vintage during your wedding. You can go all the way or incorporate modern twists to it by adding some vintage elements to your wedding. Everything will depend on your fiancé's and your lifestyle and personality as well as on the budget. There are many ways of incorporating a vintage touch to your wedding; first of all, raid your grandmother's closet to see her wedding gown or if you have a family heirloom in shape of a long Victorian lace veil, this is the time to bring it out. If you don't mind pre-owned dresses, then antique shops and thrift shops can be your source for wedding gown. Not interested in going all the way vintage on your wedding dress? Then incorporate some elements like lace or beading or a birdcage veil to your wedding attire.
2. The color scheme for your vintage wedding can be black and white with a dash of cream. Subtle, muted and pastel colors always go well with this theme. For adding color, try bright flowers on each table. It will not only brighten up the venue but will also double up as centerpiece for your tables. Flowers were all that was used for decoration during the Victorian age; so if you are going to have that vintage era as your theme, this is the perfect choice for you. You can try rose especially red roses or any other flower that is your favorite. Another great vintage idea for decoration is using teacups for holding those flowers. The handles can be used for placing the placement cards for each table.
3. The venue for your vintage wedding is also important. If you are lucky enough to have the reception in your or your fiancé's Victorian-style mansion or garden, then nothing can be better. If you are not that lucky, then try to invoke the era as much as possible. Apart from the centerpieces mentioned above, you can try lace as a decoration item draping it over tables and chairs.
4. The choice of food is also important. To keep along with the vintage theme, serve pastries and tea instead of cheese and champaign before dinner. If you have easy access to seafood, then it can be your main course for the reception. Sea food was the most available food item during Second World War as meat was a rationed item; so using that can be a great vintage touch. You can try a dish of various kinds of seafood items like crab, shrimp, oysters and lobsters and stack them on a 3-tier serving dish. Of course, be sure the whole thing is placed on a bed of ice so that the seafood remains fresh.
5. The serving plates and serving utensils should be vintage serving pieces. If you are having a catered event, talk to your catered beforehand if they can supply that. Otherwise, borrow from your friends and family if you are having a small intimate dinner.
A vintage wedding is a great way of looking back to an era which is still fresh in the memory of our parents and grandparents. Ask them for references or to see their wedding pictures to create a great vintage wedding for yourself.
