Wedding Trend {Vintage}

Vintage is a huge wedding trend this year & it's easy to see why with it's simple, soft, and elegant feel. Vintage is really another word for Antique; so it's about bringing in an older style & using it in a modern way. Items such as lace, ribbon, brooches, colorful antique glass vases, & soft floral arrangements are perfect for this style. The best part of vintage is that you can really insert your own personality as well as family history with personal items from grandparents & other relatives. It's a very DIY budget friendly trend as well because you can collect items from thrift stores, family members, & even retail stores (such as IKEA) who are now starting to caterer to this new trend. Vintage has a very electric vibe which means it's not a matchy matchy style, so you can get away with anything & really let your creativity run wild. Here are a few examples of this beautiful new trend....
