Vintage & old-fashion wedding treats

While waiting for the fall wedding circuit to begin I found some great wedding inspirations I still haven’t posted from the mammoth Wedding Co. event back in January.

Looking at all these yummy treats make me hungry.

    Tropical Wedding Decor

    I’m happy to report that the fall National Wedding Show (held in Mississauga, Toronto) is bigger than its spring counterpart! A prevailing theme throughout was lush, warm tropical settings. This was definitely one of my favourite highlights.

    To Suit Your Fancy showed off their decorating chops with 2 completely different settings. Their tropical wedding theme pairs earthy green moss and bamboo with chiavari chairs and rich formal tablecloth.

    Here are some more tropical centerpieces found throughout this show, hopefully they will give you inspirations for your tropical-theme wedding.

    Wedding Floral & Flauna

    I saw lots of fresh floral ideas at the Spring Wedding Show. It’s unusual to see florists’ vision for a outdoor casual-chic wedding at wedding shows. The showcase pieces are usually more traditional. So it’s great to see a different vibe from the top floral designers and see their range.

    Highlights below.

    Pink and brown bouquet
    A beautiful and unusual pink and brown wedding bouquet from Poppies.

    Cute guest card idea, with calligraphy by Claire Reyes
    I love this guest card idea! Calligraphy by Claire Reyes.

    This beautiful tulip centerpiece from Cool Green & Shady is casual and fun, yet grand at the same time with the sheer size & abundance of flowers. Everything just works so well together, the silver lights at varying heights, the modern vases.

    Orange and green table setting
    A colourful orange & green outdoor-inspired setting, from Event Decorator.


    An interesting mix of textures from the moss runner to the bark place mats, again from Event Decorator.

    A casual table setting for an outdoor wedding. Check out the details: burlap table cloth, wood logs, and potted plants. The bright colours of the white & pink flowers really pop on the soft browns and bring a cheerful dose of colour. From Wild Thyme.

    white pink centerpiece
    The traditional white and pink colours pop on the warm burlap tablecloth colour. Also from Wild Thyme.
