The most popular trends coming through for this season is a nod to the days gone by with vintage inspired reception themes ranging from art deco to the days of "Rock and Roll". Obviously I am a little bit biased in this view but who couldn't love the romantic view of the bygone eras!
We have seen the increasing use of birdcages, vintage lanterns and teacups on tablecentres over the last couple of years but a new take on this theme is emerging through the use of multiple vases and candles to create a full landscape to stunning effect!
I have also seen increased use of vintage china within weddings (mine included!)but a new take on this is the use of vinyl record cake stands to embrace the 1950s Rock and Roll spirit! We found a great example of this theme on http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/vinylvillage/ by Vinyl Village. The unique creations are priced at £26.
Though this could easily be done yourself by brides on a budget by hunting around the good old car boot sale!
With the theme of brides on a budget on the mind why not scrap the flowers on tables all together and kill two birds with 1 stone and give your guests an edible centrepiece. I have seen some stunning ones on my travels through the world of wedding and one of my favourite suppliers (tried and tested!) is Nicola Loveland of Loveland's Sweet celebrations http://www.facebook.com/Lovelands.Sweet.Celebrations. Nicola kindly made me a tree for my wedding fayre at Dove Barn and as you can see it looks stunning among the vintage china.
Art Deco is coming through also as a strong trend for 2012 with people looking back to the razzle dazzle of the Jazz age! Please check out my next blog for all things Art Deco!
All my Love
