If you want to add a touch of romance to your big day but you want to steer clear of anything too cliché such as bright reds, vibrant pinks and heart shaped wedding decor, then why not choose to add some old fashioned romance to your big day to make it feel truly romantic and extra special.

Wedding favours are a beautiful way to say thank you to your guests for attending, while also giving them a special memento of your big day. If you want some romantic but slightly quirky ideas for your wedding favours then look no further than The Parlour Press. Delicious 'Honey Pots of Love' are personalised with the bride and groom’s names and have a beautiful romantic and nostalgic feel to them.

Or why not opt for some old-fashioned style popcorn bags, something your guests are bound to enjoy and a great way to give your guests that nostalgic romantic feel.

Nothing says romance more than the flickering glow you get from candles. Fill a vintage wire birdcage – such as this one from Next - with tea lights to make the perfect centrepiece to each of your wedding tables and set the warm and glowing ambience of your big day beautifully.

Or why not take your old fashion romance theme one step further and choose to have vintage style candle teacups placed on each of your tables (pictured – Butterfly Home by Matthew Williamson www.debenhams.ie).

Add an extra bit of old fashioned romance by using vintage style bunting hanging from the ceiling. This Katie Alice Cottage Flower Bunting available from Debenhams, mixes soft pinks, delicate greens and pretty florals to give a real feel of old romantics and is a subtle finishing touch that will look gorgeous in your wedding photographs.

Old fashioned romance is a great way to give your wedding a timeless style that will photograph beautifully and is guaranteed make your wedding day one your guests will remember forever.
