The Wedding : Enchanted

An intimate wedding, yet undeniably glamorous. 

Pretty peach flowers and mint green accents are juxtaposed against a vintage collection of mercury glass vases, candle holders and dinnerware. A hand-picked collection of antique chandeliers provide the lovely lighting to warm up the ambience. How magical the dining area is transformed at night! Definitely an enchanted wedding to remember.

Wedding Ideas : DIY Wedding : Mercury glass

Mercury glass adds a glamourous vintage vibe to any theme and blends well with most colours, hence is immensely versatile in dressing up any occasion. 

{Project Wedding}

Mercury glass, also known as silvered glass, contains neither mercury nor silver. It's actually clear glass, mold-blown into double-walled shapes and coated on the inside with a silvering formula, which is inserted though a small hole that is then sealed with a plug. In the past, mercury was indeed used to line the glass, but this was discontinued due to expense and toxicity. Mercury glass is also known as "poor man's silver".

The Wedding : Pretty Pastels

This wedding is so breathtakingly beautiful.

The pretty palette of pastels like pink, peach and baby blue amps up the vintage glamour factor, while handmade decorations like vintage handkerchiefs and burlap flag banners add a cosy touch. To top it all off, witty adornments are added to the mix, like ball and chain pencils and even a disco ball in a rustic pendulum cage!
