I remember this wedding from a few months ago and I’ve just re-found the pictures, aren’t they cute?  The ceremony took place on a beach, with the reception on a boat.  The photographs have such a 7’s vibe to them, it makes me wonder if this wedding was actually from the 1970s!  Can anyone shed any light?

A gorgeous vintage bride and groom…gotta love it!

Edit: I have just received an email from Hannah, the bride, telling me all about their wedding. It was a recent event and the 1970s vibe was exactly what they were going for.

“Our wedding was tossed together in three weeks. Initially we had planned on a private exchange of vows with just our parents present and having a big friend filled party on our first anniversary.

Landon had his white vintage suit altered to fit and borrowed a pink button-up from a local vintage store that we were chummy with. After a beautiful sunny ceremony on the beach we all hopped aboard a lovely yacht (courtesy of my Dad) and watched the sunset from the sea, enjoyed delicious beverages, salmon and cupcakes and jams from our laptop on the top deck. At the end of the night instead of tossing my bouquet I took it apart and gave flowers to all my beautiful lads and ladies. It was a truly magical (and with the exception of the yacht cheap) day and I wouldn’t change a single thing about it!”
