So you have the venue booked, the catering sorted and your dress ordered. Now the really fun part begins! All those little finishing touches that help bring your wedding theme together and make your day extra special.

If you're looking for some elegant ways to bring together a wedding that is all about vintage and nostalgia then we have some fantastic ideas for you!

  • Your wedding cake is a huge focal point at your wedding reception, so what better way to bring your wedding theme to the forefront of everyone's minds. This stunning blue 'Vintage Wedgewood' cake by The Little Cake Co offers something a little more unusual than your average wedding cake with its pale blue colour and beautiful white detailing; it's guaranteed to wow your guests.
  • If you have gone for a vintage-inspired dress then this stunning tiara from Divine Destiny will complement it perfectly. Embellished with Swarovski crystals and freshwater pearls with delicate beading, it gives a vintage and timeless feel but is subtle enough that it won't distract from the beautiful detailing of your dress.
  • If you're looking for some inspiration for your decor then this beautiful birdcage from Vintage Touch can make a stunning and unusual centrepiece. It can also be decorated with flowers to tie in with your colour theme. It gives a real vintage feel to your day and will look amazing in your wedding photographs.
  • What could be more nostalgic than a pick 'n' mix bar of all your favourite childhood sweets? Giant bell jars of dib dabs, refreshers and plates of mouth watering buttery fudge are bound to bring out the child in everyone and will have your guests reminiscing in no time! The Pick 'n' Mix Factory offers a fantastic selection with huge variety, as pictured here.
  • If you're looking to create something extra special for your big day but don’t know where to start then CraftArtist Wedding Day offers the perfect solution. Their digital crafting package allows you to design your own vintage wedding stationery - from invites to place cards. You can even create your own bunting, what could feel more nostalgic!
