Vintage Wedding Invitation

A leap into the past for your guests
When we talk about vintage, we often tend to think of the Roaring Twenties or the Fifties. So yes, that's part of the theme, but have you also thought of a very retro wedding with a sixty's or eighty's look? Organizing a vintage wedding means inviting your guests to take a trip down memory lane, whatever era you choose. Yes, the charm of yesteryear seduces a large number of future bride and groom. Maybe you are one of them? Follow us, we explain how to create a vintage wedding invitation and give that retro touch to your wedding ceremony.
3 tips for successful invitations 🎨
👰Send your wedding announcement at least 3 months before D-Day
📍 Mention important details: name, meeting address, date, time
🗓 Ask for a response before a deadline
Our Vintage & Retro invitations
Vintage is ultimately a whole bunch of eras. Are you more Roaring Twenties? Opt for gilding and satin. More like the 50s? Made in lace! Rather after the 60s? Choose a vintage wedding invitation in the colors of these decades: orange, yellow, floral patterns... In short, whatever the period chosen, you will find the wedding invitation adapted to your ceremony.
Message ideas
On the text side of the announcement, there is no tone specific to vintage. It's up to you to adapt to the times and to your personality. Whatever period you choose, you can write a classic and elegant message or opt for a humorous tone. Nevertheless, we wanted to give you a little push with some examples of texts.
Classic
Clarisse & Naïm invite you to celebrate their union on Saturday July 18, 2022 at 4:30 p.m. at the town hall of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés. They will then have the pleasure of meeting you around a cocktail followed by dinner at the Abbey.
Positive

The bad news is that we are also for the worse! We are counting on you to accompany us on this great day. Affectionately, Julien and Marie
Emotional

Outfit, decoration, meals, activities… How to organize a vintage wedding?
Your outfits: vintage and elegant
Here, everything depends on the chosen era. For the 20s, opt for a long wedding dress with a free waist (no more corset!) and accessorize your outfit with a headband or feathers. More like the 40s? Choose a cream or ivory ¾ strapless dress. And by the way, why not add a nice retro touch to your outfit with a cloche hat? Rather 70's? Opt for a look that is close to a bohemian wedding: a long, flowing dress, lace. In any case, on the material side, you will find: lace, tulle, satin. To add an offbeat touch, why not add a nice pair of derbies or sneakers?
Your decoration: vintage, of course!
Here, we don't teach you anything! You have to let go of the decoration with vintage furniture related to your theme. For the 20s, add chic elements with gilding and satin, depending on the year, add retro elements with pearls, crystal, macrame, pretty liberty flower patterns. And above all: bet on the car! An arrival in a Chevrolet Bel Air, a 2CV, a combi and why not a Vespa!
Here are some decorative elements to prepare for D-Day:
- Polaroid camera
- Burlap bags
- Incandescent lamp
- Collector's vehicle
- Mismatched dishes
Your activities: related to the times!
For a vintage wedding, opt for activities related to your era. However, there are animations that work every time: the photo booth with retro accessories but also the dance classes to unleash the crowds. Imagine your wedding turning into a swing dance floor… isn't that great?

A vintage wedding to make your guests travel
Organizing a vintage and retro wedding is knowing how to make the most of our favorite era. Transform your ceremony into a 20s ball with an atmosphere worthy of The Great Gatsby. Take your guests on a journey to the 1940s with retro outfits, trapeze dresses and above all... swing! Otherwise, bring back good old memories to your guests with an 80s-style wedding ceremony.

Thanks to Fizzer, create wedding stationery in keeping with your ceremony. Start with a vintage Save the Date to block your guests' agendas.
