Vintage weddings are trending. Vintage designed table settings might just be our newest trend in wedding themes. Romantic, rustic and free-spirited is the perfect mood that can be created for couples who are tying the knot. Whether it be in a barn or on a farm and want to have an organic whimsical style for their incredibly special day!
Today’s vintage wedding may include farm tables, hand-painted paper goods, a beautiful vintage gown, and lots of farm-fresh design elements.
Farm Tables
Vintage table arrangements don’t have to consist of flowers—it can be jars stuffed with wheat stems or succulents in glass bowls. Even eggs in baskets with the bride and grooms names painted onto the eggs. You can gather pine cones, twigs, and berries to use as a part of your centerpiece. They are easy to find and can be painted white, silver, gold, or red to really make them stand out. Buying metallic floral spray paint and use it to “frost” your natural elements to make them look elegant.
Florals
With vintage weddings, if you choose flowers, large bright, bold ones mixed with fresh ferns make a welcoming table setting. Containers can be as simple as colored mason jars or tin boxes wrapped in jute for that country vintage style.
Table Design
Table runners can be made of gunnysack material or a bright-colored fabric with complimentary candles traversing the large farm tables for romantic evening lighting. Accent colors using turquoise and reds or bright purples with creamy whites add to the vintage look and feel. If your reception is outside in a woodsy try DIY. An easy project is to hang a round or oblong chandelier above the bridal table (or all the tables). Get a vintage chandelier and embellish with beads, candles, or fabric, or use a tree limb for an oblong table embellished with hanging candles, flowers, and mementos. Baby food jars wrapped with wire and beads and a votive inside are a great addition and also add light to the party. Luminaries are also a great idea to help define walkways if the reception or wedding is in the evening.
