For you stylish, vintage brides — a new tutorial which details how to make a birdcage veil for about $20. It’s beautiful — and so is this model! Thank you Jordan!

I am not really a veil person, but do believe that you should do something a little special and different with your hair on your wedding day. Ban.do is a celeb favorite and on my must-see list, they create the most elegant headbands and hair pieces. Enjoy!

I am looking for some banners to go along with our dessert table and inside the reception … little did I know the talent and variety that is out there on Etsy! There’s vintage banners, mini-banners, eco-friendly banners, fabric banners and more. I love it all!

So, it’s pretty obvious that I love vintage.  But besides the fact that the look is in style right now, I think what I really love about it is the story and history a piece has to tell.  Extra bonus points for vintage items being a sustainable alternative to buying new goods!  I simply adore these vintage cake toppers and paper figurines found on Abby Try Again.

How about that awesome collection?!

I love an all white wedding and everything it symbolizes. Pure. Timeless. Tradition…

Photographer Krissy Davis submitted this absolutely stunning wedding.

The beautiful bride, Shannon, was kind enough to share some details from her big day…

We chose the Oviatt because we imagined our wedding in an urban setting in Los Angeles with all the glamour and history of the Art Deco period of the 1920s.  The Oviatt Penthouse has such an exciting history, being the first Deco building of Los Angeles.  The penthouse has amazing views and the interiors are well preserved.  If those walls could talk!

I loved the flowers!!  We worked with all ivory and blush colored flowers with a hint of green and lots of peonies, which are my favorite.  I completely trusted my floral designers from Hoot and Heart to use their creative abilities once I had given them the initial direction.

After much back and forth with selecting a cake, we took the recommendation of working with a smaller shop “Cake Monkey” and came up with our own concept.  We provided an assortment of vintage silver trays borrowed from family and friends and set the large cake table with a variety of the best tasting and most beautiful mini cakes, cookies and confections.  It was not only gorgeous, but interactive and suited all pallets.
