I don't normally wax lyrical about weddings, but both my wife and I were wowed by our experience of photographing Ant and Charlie's 1950's vintage themed wedding back in June. It was kind of an epiphany for us, and an experience that I would like to share with couples looking for a theme for their wedding. We had both covered many different weddings themes, but the vintage 1950's theme really resonated with us. This was not only because of the understated but beautiful 50's dress, but also the little details that really made the day special-these included the 1950's peep toe shoes, the stylish hair net, pearl necklaces and earrings right through to the flowers, favours and even a Jukebox! The overall effect was a wedding that felt homely, elegant and romantic all at once. It also helped that the setting for the wedding was Charlie's childhood home, in Kent, the Garden of England.

We did our homework by studying literally hundreds of portrait photographs from that era depicting legends from the era, including Marilyn Monroe. The key features that are common to this style of photography is dramatic yet flattering lighting, and an emphasis on beauty, fantasy and romance.

As a pro wedding photographer I hereby implore more couples to consider a vintage theme for their wedding- From a photographer's point of view this kind of theme really fires our imaginations to come up with images that are creative, elegant and full of romance......! Just look through the internet for 1940's and 50's portraits and you'll see an array of inspiring and dramatic images. Not only are you sure to get a beautiful collection of wedding photos, you will also have a wedding that your friends and family will remember for years to come.
