We couldn’t top this classic vintage English garden wedding editorial on the beautiful grounds of The English Inn in Victoria. Timeless Great Gatsby elegance is embodied by everything from the décor to the fashion and especially by the vintage car and top hats. We especially love the sophisticated men all decked out by a local menswear shop. And the cat in the groom’s arms just made us melt!
The art-deco vintage wedding theme is beloved among couples as it allows for so many beautiful choices. Romantic deep tones paired with bold jewelery, hairpieces, shoes, the geometric hairstyles and statement makeup showcase a golden age in history. Décor is especially creative with over the top glamour and plenty of gorgeous details.
Vintage Garden Wedding Inspiration: Take a look around you – you might find yourself surprised that family members have some wonderful vintage pieces that you can build your look around. Start haunting vintage and thrift shops for décor pieces. Table décor can often be designed around one excellent rental piece such as the candelabras in this editorial. (We are proud to say that the smaller vintage pieces all came from the personal collections of those involved in the shoot!) Small details can often be the difference such as the napkin holders on this table scape. Floral designs add an art deco feel when fruit or other novel pieces are added into the bouquets. Gowns that are mismatched add to the feel of Gatsby while headpieces are a must. Have fun planning your vintage day!
