parisian party

This week’s Real (French) Wedding is Delphine and Mika’s vintage-chic celebration, shot by Pascale of Au temps d’une photo last year in the South of France.  With a little (!) help from their friends, Delphine and Mika mix-and-matched their personal style, humor and love of vintage into a gorgeous party that was 100% them.

It looks like vintage weddings are here to stay on both sides of the Atlantic (hallelujia!), BUT  it’s up to you to make the look your own. If you just can’t imagine yourself drinking out of mason jars or batting around bunches of balloons at your vintage wedding, take a page out of Delphine and Mika’s book and 1) keep it simple: select a few vintage pieces that work well in your wedding location- (i.e.: if it doesn’t make sense to have a big ole Remington typewriter in the middle of a field- don’t bring one!), 2) keep it personal: Delphine always loved the rose and peony patterns in vintage Liberty of London fabrics, so she used that as the foundation of their wedding look, 3) keep it chic: well, these images speak for themselves!
