Getting married and need to accessorize?  No matter what your wedding theme is, an antique or vintage jewelry piece can add a personal and elegant touch to your wedding look.  Does your mother have a pair of an pearl earrings you could wear?  Does your grandmother have an antique necklace she would want you to wear?  Or does an aunt have a beautiful vintage hair pin for your hair?

Not only is it affordable and unique, but a piece of vintage jewelry from within your family can add that special touch to your look as you walk down the aisle. Vintage jewelry also looks stunning in those vintage photographs you may be having your photographer take.  They also stand out nicely in sepia photographs.

So if you’re looking to accessorize with vintage pieces, ask within the family!  More often than not, they will be more than happy to be a special part of your day.

A wedding toe ring may not be a choice of everyone, but we thought we would mention it. There are lots of different sparkly toe rings to choose from that won’t bust your budget. If you are planning on wearing open toed shoes at your wedding then a toe ring might be an option for you if you like them. We found more than several companies online selling them for around $8-10 dollars. There are some shaped like a Tiara, and there are others that are just sparkly.



You may want to get something that is subtle if you don’t want to distract people with a toe ring that is especially sparkly. If that’s the case a simple chain style ring may be a better bet for you.

Some of the most beautiful candles you can get in the wintertime are ivory wedding candles. Ivory wedding candles can be used as unity candles or just as a reminder of your special day should you decide to use them on an anniversary occasion.

The best part of ivory wedding candles is adding a personal touch to them. You can have them accented with pearls or even have a personal message engraved right into the candle. It also depends on high you want the candles to sit on a table. Having the right candles for using as centerpirces is of great importance to match everything up right.



Use your candles to accent your wedding or as personalized centerpieces.

A great way to add to the personalization of your wedding is with embossed wedding invitations. Not everyone goes with this idea, but embossing always seems to make things look so official. Maybe you were a member of a group in school, or an organization, and wanted to add a special embossed logo just for those folks. If so then getting an embosser is not a bad investment.

People are sure to recognize the detail the more personal you make your invitation. So if your up for an extra hour of embossing, why not do it yourself. Or if not there are many companies online which you can find that will provide this service. If you decide to go with a local company, just check with your local print shops. This stuff can get a bit pricey.

When it comes time for your wedding you want to have the best photographer documenting it all. After all, your wedding photos are the best thing you have to remember your special day. Vintage wedding photos are a nice touch to the mix. When you are going with a black and white wedding as many do, what about having some vintage style photos for the guests to see at the guests tables? This is gives a classic touch, and allows for your guests to have something unique to take away from your wedding as well to remember it.



Be sure to tell your photographer to produce some vintage photos for your wedding album as well. Sometimes its not a bad idea to have a whole separate album just for vintage wedding photos.
