Hello thursday and hello fairy bugs!
OMG where has this week gone. I think i have blinked and missed some of it! So it's lovely to sit down and share this weeks 'Wedding inspiration of the week' with you. I'm loving all the nods to retro fashion at the moment and thought we'd inspire you with a swish of the 50's.
A beautifully, classic and chic era full of style, sophistication and glamour. Our take is slightly more kitsch but just as delightful.
The most important place to start is 'The Dress'. Your dress is the focal point everyone will want to see/ So dazzle them in a dress that oozes 50's glamour! Go for the cropped, full skirted dress with beautiful lace details and that 'Oh so' important nipped in waist. This will really help set the scene for your retro 50's wedding. One little detail you could add here is a colour sash around your waist. Something subtle would be great, a frosted olive, a pastle shade of buttercup, a pretty pink! What ever the highlight colour for your special day is could add a real 'umph' to your dress and link everything together perfectly. (image from french wedding blog).
Hair accessories are just as important as the dress and if you are setting the scene for a particular era here is a good place to be bold. So as we are coaxing the fabulous 50's why not opt for a fascinator with a delicate veil. Take a look at this show stopper below. (image from people photos)
Now to top of the 'ever so chic' statement style, you need a super dooper eye popping bouquet. Something small, full of colour and an almost 'pick & mix' style with a ready to burst vibe! The beautiful thing about the bouquet below is the stand out peony next to the array of wild flowers and carnations. Total beaut! (image from wedding 2013)
Bringing a little Dior meets Grease are these totally cute 50's dresses in a vintage floral print with contrast waistbands. Eeeeek a little bit excited about these. Just imagine your stunning photos! What a way to highlight your very classy, fashionable day.
Yummy - cake time!! This cake oozes 'made by my mum' or auntie for that matter. It's hand crafted, rustic yet cleverly pieced together for that effortless effect. Loving the little doves and floral elements. Position this on a porcelain cake stand for maximum retro impact. So darling!
Now for your guests! Why not treat them to their own piece of retro yumminess. Bringing the 'made with love' factor, we can offer you these delicate jam jars full of your favourite sweet delights. We can either add a personal note of thanks from you & the groom or double them up as name cards, with each jar of happiness being allocated to every special person who attends.
