Wedding inspo: Modern marries vintage in this city affair
Planning a city wedding? Be sure to peruse this gorgeous photoshoot for inspiration. From elegant wedding gowns and sleek suits to elevated table decor and stationery, this collaboration features the best of Irish vendors and award-winning design.
As a former fashion designer, and now award-winning wedding planner, Lena Freitag is known for creating elegant events that are of the highest standard. In her latest photoshoot ‘Modern Vintage’, she worked alongside Irish vendors to create “a world where modernity meets the allure of bygone eras.”
Set in the charming blue room of The Grayson in Dublin, this concept marries urban chic with vintage elegance in a captivating display. Against the striking backdrop of black, white, and gold accents, the turquoise walls of The Grayson’s blue room create a mesmerising contrast – modern opulence at its finest.
The versatility of the theme is showcased through the tasteful details, alongside three distinct table settings, each offering its own interpretation. From the abundance of candles with cascading ribbons in the first setting, to romantic anemones in the second and classic roses in the third, every detail is thoughtfully curated to blend modernity with vintage seamlessly.
The bridal gowns are a study in contrasts, ranging from sleek and luxurious to modern and playful, each complemented by unique hairstyles that accentuate their individuality. Finally, the groom’s attire, whether a classic black tuxedo or a navy velvet jacket, adds a touch of timeless refinement to the ensemble.
Join us on an enchanting journey of bridal inspiration, as Lena Freitag Weddings and her team redefine the concept of a ‘modern vintage’ wedding…
