This Mindy Weiss event was inspired by the rolling verdant hills and fresh flavors of Tuscany, but we also think it captures the elegance of a bygone era. If you're going the vintage route, lace is a must: Look for a gown with a modern twist, like this bride's matching bolero and sheer sleeves. A muted color palette with ivory, slate grey, rose, and gold is soft and pretty.
Unusually-shaped chandeliers hung from the overhead trellis and billowy fabric was used to create a faux canopy. Wood chairs were mixed with covered chairs with fabric floral detailing. The vintage theme can even extend to food and serving pieces, too: "We placed a French baguette at each place setting for guests, used vintage bottles wrapped with craft paper and twine for fresh lemonade and had a spread with produce like grapes," said Weiss. What's for dessert? A five-tier all-white cake with intricate detailing and a monogram of the couple's initials, accented with a delightfully old-fashioned cake figurine.
