Vintage Wedding Inspiration Boards Retro Wedding Ideas!

Retro Vintage Inspired Weddings are HOT!!

Are you planning a retro wedding theme?  Retro weddings are fun not just for the bride and groom, but for all your wedding guests.  Not only is the planning and researching fun, but so is the wedding!  Don't overlook asking senior family members about their own weddings. 

Most couples pick an era as their theme and build from there.  Popular retro wedding colors were pale pastels like pale pink and pale blue, so here is our inspiration board in those colors. 

The 50's wedding era had brides wearing tea length ballerina skirted dresses with awesome shoes.  Think pearls and big chunky costume jewelry, amazing shoes, and of course, a vintage handbag in a color that matches your bridesmaids.














Put some Sinatra on the turntable and search out vintage, resale stores and flea markets for costume jewelry from a bye gone era.

How cool are the heart cakes to give that vintage vibe?



Don't be afraid of color for a vintage wedding.  If you aren't bold enough to wear a colored wedding dress, you can wear any shade of white or ivory and wear all colored accessories:  pink pearls, shoes, handbag and of course, flowers!
