A fabulous retro drive-in meets cocktail party prom
There wasn't a real theme for the wedding, other than "Let's Duerr It," based on our last name. It was our URL, hashtag, and was prominently displayed in large balloons on stage. One friend had made the comment that she felt like she was at a prom, "in the best possible way." We got married at an old drive-in hot dog stand called Superdawg, where we had one of our first dates. Our friends Kate and Pete chauffeured us in their '61 Lincoln Continental and the officiant was our friend Louie. The guest list was about 15 people (plus our dog, Stanley) and the ceremony lasted about five minutes.
Boho meets glam with these shrugs, capes, toppers, & wraps from BHLDN
Fall weddings, cold weather weddings, vintage glam weddings, or a modest church ceremony — there are TONS of reasons to be in the market for a chic and glamorous wedding cover-up. We went a-hunting at reader fave BHLDN to see what they had in store for shrugs, capes, toppers, and wraps. They had a fair few (or, you know, a ton!) to choose from. From faux fur to sequins to maribou to full-on feathers… these are wedding wraps from BHLDN that will make your day.
Let’s get to the window shopping…
Throwback style and sweet moments all over this vintage eclectic wedding
Amy and Camilla took their vintage style and ran with it by incorporating it in their killer outfits and placecards (vintage photos!). Their friend officiated in drag(!), they got shoe tattoos instead of exchanging rings, and also gave out temporary tattoos as favors. The venue was ideal for them with its eclectic style of antique frames, glassware, furniture, and the glow of tons of twinkle lights.
Don’t miss their pink and mint dresses (the pink dress was made by Amy’s mom!), their fabulous retro hairstyles, and fun trivia game…
Have tea at this vintage-inspired wedding with the “dress-cued” vintage dress of our dreams
When a vintage fashion blogger, Frances, married her sweet husband, Doug, we couldn’t stop ogling their fashion, tender looks, and amazing venue. They’re both choir singers and had a Catholic ceremony followed by a relaxed brunch reception at the historic Community House of Hamilton, MA, which included tea and games.
Prepare yourself to witness the $50 vintage dress Frances was able to “dress-cue” into this current amazingness. Those sleeves, that collar, her hairstyle! And Doug’s tie matches it all perfectly. We have so much love for this vintage-inspired wedding in Massachusetts.
