Vintage inspired Wedding Accessories & Gifts at Past Times

May 27th, 2009.

As a bride to be (Scott and I are hoping to tie the knot next summer!) I thought I would start sharing some of my wedding research with you. Past Times is one of my favourite shops, as I love all things vintage and nostalgic. Recently I have spotted a few things which I have bought for our wedding!

Throwing the bridal garter to the wedding guests as a bearer of good luck dates back as far as the Middle Ages. Today, the garter often incorporates blue, a symbol of constancy and loyalty, and an essential part of the traditional wedding attire

A romantic wreath that recalls the Victorian love of sentiment. Perfect for giving to a loved one or bride-to-be on her wedding day.

During the 17th and 18th centuries fans and lace were both hugely popular fashion accessories but it wasn’t until the 19th century that the two were combined in any significant number. Our pretty white lace fan would make the perfect accessory for a wedding day, christening or any other special occasion.

Our pretty embroidered Wedding Ring Cushion is perfect for carrying the bride and groom’s rings down the aisle on their wedding day, and will be a special keepsake thereafter.

Keep all those cherished mementoes of your special day in our hand embroidered and decorated Keepsake Box.

I hope you enjoy these, I have just spotted Past Times online have a mid-season sale on at the moment!
