The 20th century gave us a lot of wonderful things to remember.
The hairstyles, the clothing, the music, and much, much more! Because of that,
the previous century is a great place to look for inspiration, when choosing a
theme for your wedding. In my opinion, a retro wedding not only gives a unique
and memorable character to your wedding, but is also a sweet way to give your
parents and grandparents an opportunity to relieve the beauties from their
younger years.
So, what is a retro wedding style? A retro wedding, is a
style which includes various charming little details from the old times. With
every decade offering something new and fresh to draw inspiration from, it is
hard not to find something you will absolutely love for your wedding theme. You
can make a 90's, 60's, or 40's wedding theme, or have a 20th century mash-up
wedding!
A great thing about retro weddings, is that you can
choose absolutely any color palette you like for your wedding, and still get
the retro feeling you are going for! There are no restrictions whatsoever. Anything
from pastel and blush colors, to vivid and bright tones can be used for a retro
wedding. This also means, that a retro wedding can be a good choice any time of
the year. With the adorable retro patterns, you can make your wedding
decorations even more fun.

One of my favorites, when it comes to retro wedding
styles, are the decorations. The best part? You won't have to go far to get
them!! Just visit your parents' attic and you will find everything you need,
there. Use old suitcases to make a cute sitting plan stand. Look for vintage
picture frames to use on the guest tables for the table numbers. Use doilies,
books, old soda bottles to create the most amazing centerpieces! The key
ingredient is your imagination.
The 20th century was the era the self-powered motor
vehicles, or simply cars, begun being used by the public, and what gems did that
time produce. The previous century is responsible for so many amazing cars,
such as the Classy Bentley, the VW Van, also known as the hippie van, the cute beetle,
the romantic decheveux. All of those cars, and so many more, are perfect to
arrive to a wedding. And the pictures you will make with them, will be
gorgeous!
The best way to give your wedding the retro feeling you
are going for, is of course for you, the bride and groom, to travel three to
four decades back and borrow the style of the time that you like. The tea
length wedding dresses with lace details give a romantic, girlish appearance to
every bride. Combined with the chic vintage hairstyles and bright red lips, you
will look like you stepped out from a different time. The groom's attire is
equally stylish as the bride's. With choices from classic suits, to suspenders,
bowties, vests, your future hubby will look stunning for his retro wedding day!

Planning a retro wedding, is as fun is could possibly be!
There is so much interesting information to look for, that you will fall in
love with the process. Looking in all those bridal bouquets that were in
fashion in every decade, listening to the amazing music those times produces,
learning about the drinks, sweets, and fun games of that time, will be more
like the best history lesson you ever had, rather than planning a wedding.
Do you wonder, how would a retro wedding style fit in
Santorini? I say, wonderfully! With so many wedding venues, built from old
factories, a vintage wedding will look swell in Santorini! Interested in having
one? Feel free to contact Cardoon Events for more information and ideas!
Thank you very much for reading! I wish you a lovely day!
