The use of bridal veils is not a new concept. They have literally been worn for centuries, but the style of the veils has changed quite a bit. There are so many to choose from, practically one for every taste.
If you are considering a veil for your wedding day attire, but want something a little different and unique, you may want to consider a birdcage veil. The birdcage veil became popular in the 30’s and 40’s, and is once again making a comeback. The birdcage veil is made from netting, usually diamond-shaped. These veils can vary in length from just covering the eyes, to covering the entire face. They are also available in several colors, although most brides do tend to go with the classic white or ivory.

Wedding Favors With Vintage Flair

Vintage style has been with us in fashion and interiors for some years now and the style hasn’t been overlooked by the wedding industry either. Adopting a vintage style theme has been a popular choice, but creating wedding favors to match does require a little creativity.
Firstly, you are unlikely to ever find vintage wedding favors! So it is up to you to create your own. The easiest way to do this is through color choices and decorations. For the favors themselves I would choose simple items such as candles or miniature photograph frames. For favors with vintage style but a contemporary twist have cookies or mini cakes made with vintage style in terms of shape and decoration. Look to the 1940′s and 50′s for inspiration in terms of graphics and colors.
