Best of Weddings - Saying Goodbye to 2011!

2011 was a fantastic year for weddings, love, and for Vintage&Lace! In 2011, Vintage&Lace was registered as an official new business and we launched our Hawaii Weddings website and two new blogs.
As we say goodbye to 2011 and look onward to 2012, we are taking a moment to remember the joys we experienced this last year.

Wedding trends in 2011 emphasized intimacy, personality, rustic glamour, vintage style, eco-friendly options, DIY projects, and more! We saw vintage lace gowns, creative guestbooks, all kinds of props, and loads of bold new color combinations. More couples opted for intimate backyard weddings and personal private homes. Flowers stayed true to the classics (roses, peonies, sunflowers, lilies, etc.) yet we saw new combinations and a rise in ultra creative non-floral bouquets and centerpieces. We also saw more elegant and exciting headpieces and longer more traditional veils, both likely inspired by the Royal Wedding.

And, although we celebrated and congratulated many brides on their wedding day this year, one that really sticks out for Vintage&Lace is the wedding of our co-owner, Rachael to Ben!

  Overall, it has been a great year in weddings and we appreciate each of you and all your support!

Happy New Year! 2012 here we come!


Love, 
Heather & Rachael
