In<\/span> a time when extravagance rules everything we see on television, and \u201cbridezillas\u201d set the standard for acceptable behavior, many couples planning their weddings strive to achieve the antithesis for their big day. We look to our histories and the weddings and lasting relationships of our parents and grandparents for inspiration, creating a matchless vintage wedding that is remembered for years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the major benefits of having a vintage wedding is that it can be done on a low budget, while emulating the feel of a much more expensive affair. D\u00e9cor is found in grandma\u2019s attic, or the dusty shelves of a local thrift boutique. Eclectic gives the vintage wedding its feel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choosing to have a vintage wedding means you, as the bride, have come to terms with the fact that everything isn\u2019t going to match perfectly. And that\u2019s where your eclectic, one of a kind, day shines through. Collect old bandanas and kerchiefs to create garland. Serve drinks out of garage sale mason jars. Tie an antique pin onto your bouquet.<\/span><\/p>\n

Centerpieces aren\u2019t mass produced in a line of 14 little clones. Finding 14 identical retro vases isn\u2019t going to happen. Let each centerpiece follow a central theme, but be unique in its self. Old liquor bottles, a collection of picture frames, even antique books can all create a visually appealing centerpiece without being identical to one another.<\/span><\/p>\n

The shade of green in the bridesmaid dresses isn\u2019t going to be the same as the napkins and that is absolutely fine. The girls in the bridal party all have different barrettes and jewelry that they found scouring antique shops. The cake knife may have been your in-law\u2019s, and the server may have been your great aunt\u2019s. One is silver plated. The other is gold. And that is entirely okay.<\/span><\/p>\n

We reminisce to these times when it wasn\u2019t about the<\/span> wedding glamour, it was about a lasting marriage. The items gathered for your vintage wedding have stood up to the test of time. Sounds like a pretty good thing to create a wedding around, doesn\u2019t it?<\/span><\/p>\n
