Alongside all the new wedding trends, vintage glamour is a look that will always be a firm favourite. Feminine, effortless, romantic and glamorous automatically springs to mind. A timeless and classic wedding involves formal settings and elaborate dresses with romance at every turn. Take a look at two very different, but equally beautiful venues that will set the scene for your elegant vintage wedding day.
- Find your Wedding Style…
Glazebrook House Hotel: perfect for a vintage glamour wedding
This venue fitted perfectly with the timeless vintage glamour look we were trying to create – a quirky, romantic, boutique styled backdrop with such a statement look.
With this venue it was more about opting for vintage glamour. Still in keeping with romantic vibe this quirky backdrop oozes rustic elegance.
Achieving the look.
- Take a peek at planning & on the day co-ordination.
We love a classic feminine vintage look. Hair set in beautiful waves or an elegant up do. Make up looking oh so glamorous with iconic rouged lips, smokey eye, fluttering lashes and oodles of jewels will help create that divine look for your wedding day.
When it comes to your dress think iconic silhouettes in lace or fine silks with a touch of sparkle – it’s romance all the way. At Glazebrook our bride wore a beautiful sparkling gown that shimmered in the light of the grande chandeliers.
Whilst at Mamhead our bride wore an elegant sheer backless dress with beautiful lace and divine jewelled accents paired with the most gorgeous heels!
For the chaps its all about stepping out in a sharp morning suit with elegant fine leather shoes – and maybe even a top hat and tails.
At Mamhead our Groom showed off a fine deep blue suit, white shirt and fabulous striped tie….
… Whereas at our Glazebrook venue our groom saw himself in rich velvets and tartan. Sylish & powerful gentleman’s outfits I must say….
Dressing the Venue
The key to achieving this look is keeping things simple – cut crystal, reflective chandeliers, pillar candles with formal dinner wear with a historical, boutique venue as a back drop to your perfect day.
For the Flowers
For a lush floral display think of adaptions upon beautiful blush, cream flowers in abundance! – with accents of delicate and pretty foliage to offset the vintage era.
Achieving the Sheer Vintage Boutique look; Glazebrook had incredible decor that kept you mesmerised at every turn, so the decor can be kept simple yet effective, with delicate vintage table accessories, playing cards and pillar candleholders.
Achieving the Divine Elegant Vintage look; Mamhead has an abundance of rustic and historical attributes so keeping in line with a vintage era shows off this venue perfectly. With glass centrepieces overflowing with natural blush flowers, silver eucalyptus leaves teamed shimmering warm tones and golden candleholders.
Dining, Entertainment
Champagne is a must. Combined with fabulous feasting tables, ice sculptures and fresh seafood – langoustines, lobster and smoked salmon, naturally, great sides of British roast beef, elegant desserts, or even an afternoon tea all suit this wonderful classic glamorous style.
