Weddings with vintage details evoke classic romance, honor the charm of bygone eras and stir feelings of nostalgia, whether through vintage wedding gowns, vintage wedding accessories or traditions of yesteryear. There’s something about intricate vintage lace, either on a wedding dress, ring bearer pillow or garter. And weaving vintage appeal into your wedding ceremony or reception isn’t hard to do because these small details can make a big impact. For brides who like the juxtaposition of a modern dress with vintage accessories think about how to effectively accessorize – maybe with vintage inspired bridal jewelry or bridal headpieces. Wear a rhinestone brooch, wedding jewelry set, crystal shoe clips, drop earrings or chandelier earrings, or glamorous headpiece, such as a rhinestone barrette, bridal hair comb, bridal tiara, bridal hair pin, bridal headband or bridal feather. Birdcage veils or French net blushers are also a popular choice for vintage appeal. You don’t have to stick to a single style if you prefer just a hint of a classic era. Or, opt to intertwine this concept into wedding accessories like flower girl dresses, flower girl baskets, bridal shoes, bridal purses, wedding veils, wedding umbrellas, guest books, toasting flutes and wedding invitations. A vintage wedding is one that guests will remember and you will, too. Advantage Bridal features many vintage wedding accessories and vintage bridal accessories for a touch of whimsy.

Something Old, New, Borrowed and Blue
Tuesday, March 15th, 2011
Vintage Style Couture Lace Bridal Garter
It’s fun to incorporate meaningful elements into your wedding, such as “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue and a silver sixpence in her shoe.” Subtle details can fulfill this traditional bridal saying that is thought to be bring the bride good luck and a long, happy marriage. “Something old” symbolizes continuity with the bride’s family and the past while moving to the next chapter.
Ideas for something old:
Family heirlooms, antique pieces, vintage relics or sentimental objects can fill the “something old” wedding tradition.
Look to moms, aunts, grandparents or someone close to you for trinkets that you can use in your wedding, like a handkerchief or charm wrapped around your bouquet.
Wear a locket necklace with old family photos or display these pics at the reception. Photos of the bride and groom as children look lovely at the guest book table.
Use vintage ribbon, lace, buttons or other ornaments on the flower bouquet, wedding dress, veil or as decorative touches.
Shop thrift stores, antique malls and your grandmother’s closet for a vintage purse, clutch, gloves or brooch.
Perch vintage cake toppers on the wedding cake or add a whimsical touch at the dessert bar.
Toasting flutes handed down are perfect for the reception.
Carry a cherished momento in your bridal purse.
Wear something passed down, like a veil, tiara, garter or jewelry. This also meets the “something borrowed” requirement.
Brides can use their imagination and search their mother’s attic or memory box for the “something old” object they cherish. The bridal shower is an opportunity for family members to pass down a keepsake for the bride to use at the wedding or keep afterward. We wish you joy as you hunt for something old.

“Black Swan” Themed Wedding Reception
Tuesday, February 15th, 2011
Luxurious . . . sophisticated . . . dramatic. Perfect Wedding Guide posted gorgeous pictures of a Black Swan themed wedding reception tabletop, a motif based on the popular movie starring Natalie Portman as a prima ballerina. This wedding theme incorporates elements of the Black Swan in creative, opulent fashion. See below for close ups and get inspired with your own wedding theme.
The Atlanta Perfect Wedding Guide team recently participated in a tabletop competition for the National Association of Catering Executives (NACE). With the creative vision of Ciao Bella Weddings, the ladies presented the Black Swan as a themed wedding reception tabletop.
Advantage Bridal encourages brides to think beyond the cookie-cutter wedding, with theme reception decor and wedding accessories for a dramatic statement. Advantage Bridal loves the details: the contrast of the black and white, different textures, feathered reception chair covers, soft candlelight, rhinestone napkin holders, black lacquer toasting flutes . . . This reception tabletop is simply “divine.”
Perfect Wedding Guide states:
“The theme of our table is inspired by the motion picture, the Black Swan. The tablescape is a combination of modern and monochromatic with hints of French influence as a nod to the ballet. The elements will emulate the two personas by combining the elegance, innocence, and grace of the white swan with the anchor of guile and sensuality embodied by the Black Swan.
While our table is predominately charcoal and black in color, the details are softer. Silver and black chameleon chairs draped in sheer soft silk organza chair covers flanked in rouched fabrication. A long estate table is dressed in a couture black ruffled linen. The tabletop features gorgeous black glassware and china accented by sleek and modern silverware. The crowning jewel of the table is the winter white flora and white candles appearing as a halo to the entire design. The balance of power and romance is evident at first glance.”
