Vintage Wedding

Last week I attended my brother's wedding. A lot of thought and detail went into the decoration. They had some of the coolest things I have seen at a wedding. Unfortunately I only had time to take a few photos (it's hard work being a bridesmaid!).

If you are in the process of planning a wedding, maybe these ideas will give you some inspiration.

The food was excellent, even before the day started we had a selection of mini pastries to choose from.

Lots of fairy lights, vines and artificial plants. Lanterns lining the path.

Mini milk bottles with homemade raspberry mojitos (sparkling elderflower for the mocktails) with funky retro straws. All dispensed from glass bell jars with little taps.

Bunting draped over a vintage suitcase for all the gifts.

Confetti boxes made from herb trays filled with cones to distribute to the guests, with printed plaques and ribbon.

Artificial flowers placed in different colour and sized glass bottles with pearls draped across them for the table centre pieces.

It's obviously not a posh meal unless you have flowers in the dish. I can confirm the flowers did taste surprisingly nice.

I think it helped that the decor of the venue fitted perfectly with the theme. For example this grand chandelier in the main entrance. 

Overall it was a lovely wedding and the day couldn't have been more perfect. The food was excellent and the guests had a great time.
