Secrets to Planning the Perfect Vintage Lesbian Wedding Wedding

When we say from start to finish, we mean it! Let’s begin with some basic planning tips and work our way down to the best food for your vintage lesbian wedding reception!

Timeline and Planning

The first thing you want to do is get yourself a nice planner to write everything down. Every thought, every idea, and of course, the general plan for the day. Even if you have a wacky idea that you don’t think you’ll ever be able to pull off, write it down! You just never know when the planets will align just right to make a wild dream come true.

Really, any type of planner works, but if you want to stick with the vintage theme all the way through, my favorite is this one from Etsy. It has a lot of wonderful suggestions, as well as 140 pages to fully plan your wedding without leaving anything out! And it can be personalized with your names!

The next step is to start working on the guest list. How many people are you going to invite? Who are they? Will they attend in person or are you hosting a virtual wedding? Make sure to choose a proper venue and menu, so you don’t leave anyone out. 

In terms of timeline, you need to decide when the wedding will start, where it will happen, and basically organize the entire day. 

Invitations

There are so many amazing options for vintage wedding invitations out there that it can be challenging to choose just one. Don’t worry, I already narrowed down the list to just my top three favorites. Let’s take a look!

Vintage Romance Invitations

These ones are perfect, and you can find them on Etsy. They look as they’ve been written on real parchment paper, making them ideal for a vintage lesbian wedding.

Each set comes with an invitation, RSVP card, and envelope. The price reflects the cost of each set for a group of 100. However, they also offer sets of 25, 50, and even 250!

Vintage Movie Ticked Invitations

You definitely know from all the movies how tickets used to look like, and these Etsy invitations really keep that same atmosphere. You can order a sample invitation ahead of time to make sure they’re just right for your big day.

Telegram Wedding Invitation

I absolutely love these ones, and since you can just print them out, you don’t have to pay for every word you write! Find them on Etsy.

Decor

Vintage décor can be hard to find, but there are small things you can do. The secret is to get creative, and see how you can repurpose items. 

Before buying anything, check your local vintage shops, and see what you find. Remember to also check out this décor!

Heart-Shaped Confetti

Chances are that you don’t want the classic colorful confetti for your vintage wedding, so I found these ones on Etsy!

Vintage Lanterns

These are incredibly cute. All you need to do is place candles inside, and then find cute spots for them around the venue. They are available on Etsy too.

Vintage Cake Server

If you want to go all-in, then remember to grab this vintage cake server from Etsy too!

Food and Drinks

In terms of food and drinks for a vintage wedding, you need to think about everything! Make sure to ask your guests if they have any allergies, and be prepared for that.

White Cake

This white cake is super easy to make, so if you want to do everything yourself, this recipe is going to be perfect!

And for real food, you can safely start with a few cheese platters, just to get everyone in the best vintage wedding mood!

And you can also throw in some of these salmon and cucumber rolls, just to keep it fancy.

For the drinks, these pink margaritas will look fabulous in some vintage glasses!

The last thing you need to do is to have a wonderful time! A vintage lesbian wedding doesn’t just casually happen, so you need to make it memorable!
