Hello all I was wondering if there are any other brides out there having a vintage (think 20's, 30's and even up the 60's) wedding theme. I would love the share ideas and partner on decor.....

I am having a themed wedding 1920's New Orleans Jazz theme wedding in Puerto Vallarta and going all out and I would love to hear any ideas or inspiration.

Think bird cage veil, pin-stripe suits and the works.....

Love
Kathy

Kathy! We are doing a somewhat vintage-theme as well, but more 50's glam than 20's or 30's. But I think we could still have some of the same inspiration ideas. I'm considering a birdcage veil but not sure about that yet. I don't know how it would look on me. I might do a headband instead as I think that is somewhat 50's inspired. Other than that, the only vintage things are going to be the fonts on our paperwork, and I'm also going to have some feathers in my bouquet (my nickname from my dad is "feather" so it's kinda meaningful too).

Here is a great vintage blog I've been looking at for some ideas:

Do you have any resources you've been using?

Thanks for the link, the site is awesome. A lot of my inspiration came from oncewed.com they have a ton of pictures, mainly of vintage and country themed weddings.

I can't wait to see your planning thread. Do you have any inspiration pictures?

My reception is rustic themed and this site has some great inspiration for that as well. Thanks for sharing!

So far the only inspiration pics I've compiled are on my inspiration board that's in my siggy. I have some more at work but I haven't organized them into anything nice-looking. Do you have an inspiration board?

I'm not having a vintage inspired wedding, however, I am working on a "vintage wedding inspiration board". Here are some of the pics that I compiled. I'm not totally sure that they work with the whole 20s or 30s look though.
