Vintage Romance

Everything old is new again—and white hot! Think couture bridal gowns covered all over in vintage lace; florals wrapped with antique family heirloom broaches that take you back to your grandmother's favorite flowers; a bridal clutch handmade from your mom's own wedding dress.

Trend Tip
In a nod to "something old, something borrowed," share favorite bridal accessories between sisters, moms and grandmothers. It is so personal and thoughtful to share these special details with guests in your wedding program. For example, on the last page: "Brittany is the sixth bride in her family to carry her great grandmother's handkerchief down the aisle, tucked into her bridal bouquet. Robert is carrying his grandfather's pocket watch in his vest pocket, just as his father and grandfather did on their own wedding days."
