Vintage Chic Portugal Wedding with Family Heirlooms and Dancing

Share

Bride getting ready, wedding preparations

Today we are off to Portugal for Mariana and Duarte’s vintage chic wedding. This wedding is overflowing with family heirlooms, such as a small art deco chest that carried the rings. The rings were made with the same gold used for Duarte’s great-grandfather wedding rings. The earrings Mariana had were from her Grandmother and some vintages pins she wore on her beautiful dress were from her Aunt. Talk about keeping it in the family.

Brancoprata captured this wedding and knows for a fact that all the guests danced the night away until 6am. To see more wedding details from this vintage chic wedding click here.

How sweet is Mariana and Duarte’s wishing tree table? Filled with sentimental items including Mariana’s Aunt’s art nouveau ink holders. Guests were asked to write their well wishes and then pin them to a small olive tree with a clothes pin. Incredibly cute, don’t you think?

Steal worthy idea:
The couple made table numbers out of doilies and a gigantic doilies tree showed guest were would they be seated. How much do you love that? Brancoprata did all the flowers (except for the church flowers), and we love the simple yet incredibly chic little arrangements scattered throughout. As far as the flowers, they used a mix of coral and pink colors. They incorporated glass cake stands from Marinha Grande, crochet doilies, egg holders, old bottles, cake stands and bell jars candle holders to hold they flowers, a very old weighing-machine … everything was used and incorporated to make the vintage look more modern and chic. We love it.
