This was so popular in our printed version of &#8220;The Point&#8221; magazine, I am sharing it on my blog. I\u2019m also a romantic so without further ado, I share some tips for evoking the timeless style of a bygone era on your wedding day.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most popular themes for weddings at the moment is vintage. Any era you want to choose from the 20s to the 60s you can find plentiful resources to tie in with your chosen wedding theme. Let\u2019s explore a couple of my favorite eras:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1788\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1788\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1788\" title=\"b15dd937e7d79c651b2c8e6da1dd2762\" src=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/b15dd937e7d79c651b2c8e6da1dd2762-440x547.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"440\" height=\"547\" srcset=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/b15dd937e7d79c651b2c8e6da1dd2762-440x547.jpg 440w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/b15dd937e7d79c651b2c8e6da1dd2762-120x150.jpg 120w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/b15dd937e7d79c651b2c8e6da1dd2762.jpg 514w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1788\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">vintage wedding photo ca. 1920&#8217;s<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>1930\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Style was all about glamour in the 30\u2019s and cinema ruled the day. Think of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Be inspired by stars of the silver screen. If you live in a historical city like Alameda and can rent a ballroom to match the Deco style, you\u2019ll be inspired to add vintage design embellishments that were so fashionable in that era. \u00a0A wedding venue can play a big part in setting the desired period effect so do your research and look for examples of original Deco architecture.<\/p>\n<p>The most exciting thing about planning a 1930\u2019s wedding is choosing vintage clothing.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s start with dressing vintage on your special day. The sleek, floor length, bias cut look is flattering to most body types and is still popular today. The details in a vintage bridal gown can\u2019t be affordably replicated. However, if you don\u2019t choose true vintage, you can opt for vintage accessories such as a beaded handbag, veil, headpiece, and jewels. All of these items can be found at the Point or the <a href=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/vintage-fashion\" target=\"_blank\">Alameda Point Vintage Fashion Faire<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The bridesmaids can also dress in 1930s inspired (or authentic) dresses. The look should be perfectly styled hair &amp; flawless make up.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1789\" title=\"tumblr_lwgaj5exQt1qj185so1_500\" src=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/tumblr_lwgaj5exQt1qj185so1_500-440x570.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"440\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/tumblr_lwgaj5exQt1qj185so1_500-440x570.jpg 440w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/tumblr_lwgaj5exQt1qj185so1_500-115x150.jpg 115w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/tumblr_lwgaj5exQt1qj185so1_500.jpg 494w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1791\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1791\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1791\" title=\"vintage bride wedding cosmopolitan magazine\" src=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/vintage-bride-wedding-cosmopolitan-magazine1-440x600.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"440\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/vintage-bride-wedding-cosmopolitan-magazine1-440x600.png 440w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/vintage-bride-wedding-cosmopolitan-magazine1-109x150.png 109w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/vintage-bride-wedding-cosmopolitan-magazine1-550x750.png 550w, http:\/\/alamedapointantiquesfaire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/vintage-bride-wedding-cosmopolitan-magazine1.png 586w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1791\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">vintage bride Cosmopolitan magazine<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>1950\u2019s<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This era reflected a period of optimism and hope.
