The atmosphere of a shabby chic wedding is particularly ethereal and dreamy and conveys a wonderful romantic-retro atmosphere of yesteryear.
In the color palette of a shabby chic wedding, it will be essential the predominance of white, which we recommend in warm colors, and then move to colors such as ivory and cream, delicate and romantic pastel shades, coming then to gray shades of different tones both cold and warm tending to brown. The end result should be that of a particularly bright and soft palette; here are some examples of colors with which you can build the color palette of your shabby chic wedding:

Now that we have given you some indications on the shabby chic style, you will need to convey this atmosphere within your wedding and, since this style will be the common thread of the event, it must be present, tastefully and without exaggeration, in every detail of the event, calibrating everything to perfection.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Once you have decided that the style of your wedding will be shabby chic, the next step to be taken should be the selection of the location, or rather, the place of the reception of your wedding and, in this case, the best choice would be to organize the event in an elegant home rustic style or a farmhouse with a large and romantic garden all around, as can be a masseria in Puglia<\/strong>, using as much as possible the open spaces because a shabby chic wedding goes perfectly with the spring and summer season.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nShabby chic wedding invitations<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Let's move now the first steps and consider the topic \"coordinated wedding\", so everything related to invitations, menus, table markers, place cards, tableau, etc. ...
In this case, we recommend you to use another characteristic element of this style, namely the floral print, which, to be perfectly in line with the mood, should be particularly soft, soft-colored and romantic, usually representing small flowers, polka dots and fantasy striped parallel. This print could be present as a background or cover of the invitation, as a decoration inside the envelope, or as a detail on a ribbon that closes the whole, the important thing is that it is present and immediately transmits a delicate touch of romance.
For all the coordinated use the same paper, I recommend and select perhaps one with an antiqued effect, with a slight texture, not perfectly smooth in short, and as for the font, choose a calligraphic font or write the invitations directly by hand, the final effect will be perfect.
As we introduced earlier, lace is another characteristic element of the shabby chic style, so, in the invitations and in the coordinated you could also insert references to the fantasies of this fabric recreated for example on the paper by laser or simply by inserting a lace ribbon or a flower recreated with this fabric, everything will be absolutely in line with the common thread of the wedding.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the realization of the tableau mariage you can really indulge because there are many elements that you could use:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Old windows a bit 'disused and broken, decorated with garlands of flowers. With a white marker or other colors, you could write the names of the tables and your guests on each glass.
Frames of different types and sizes, white or pastel colors, hanging from the branches of a tree or on a wall, inside them, decorated in some cases with fancy fabric, you could insert the tags printed with the names of the tables and those of the guests.
Blackboards of different sizes, perhaps with white pickled effect frames or a single larger one, on which you can write the names of the tables and guests.
There are several alternatives that would match this style, the important thing is that they have that touch \"do it yourself\" perfect for a shabby chic wedding.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In a shabby chic wedding can not miss elegant flowers and delicate tones such as peonies, roses, hydrangeas, camellias, fine flowers and small touches of lavender (the latter without exaggeration, please, otherwise you would risk to result in a Provencal style wedding).
The flowers should be in elegant compositions but not too structured and rigorous, indeed, a natural look will be the one that best suits this style and, since the shabby chic is based on the reuse of old objects, do not forget to make the most of even small vases of different sizes, some glass, others ceramic fancy, others still in white plaster or small wooden containers pickled; in short, create centerpieces consisting of several elements of different shapes and sizes inside which will be placed delicate cut flowers. Play also with white wooden candle stands, small enameled wrought iron aviaries or lanterns filled with flowers inside and prefer objects created with DIY or recycled; take a trip to the various antique markets in your country, you will surely find a lot of useful items, such as jugs and glass jars that you could repaint with pastel colors, or small cups of various services now disused to be reused as candle holders or flower holders; do not worry if they will be mismatched, indeed, it will be even better.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFor the setting of the table you can follow two paths:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- The first could be to leave the wood insight without the use of tablecloths but only an elegant central runner, perhaps made with the finest white lace.<\/li>
- The second instead, if you want something particularly elegant, use a tablecloth made of white linen, very clear.<\/li><\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In the room or in the garden, use, if possible, white chairs made of wrought iron or aged wood, decorated with delicate fantasy pillows, even one different from the other, the important thing is that they present very soft pastel colors and here and there suspended with ribbons garlands of flowers god circular shape or even more romantic heart-shaped, alternating with frames of various sizes from the aged effect.
If space allows, recreate small relaxation areas with furniture and small objects of furniture perfectly in shabby style; you won't need many things, you can also recreate a small and nice living room, with a sofa, some armchairs, a low table or a console and you could also use this area for the part of the photographs with your guests and place the guestbook to sign for the wedding and, always in this area, do not forget to add pillows from different fantasies, lace details and large doilies like those that were crocheted by our grandmothers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As for the bouquet opt for a composition of small size, made with refined flowers, not too flashy, chosen in shades of color very soft, and wrap the stem of them with a lace ribbon or satin pastel colors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWedding dress shabby chic style<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
What could be a suitable wedding dress for your shabby chic wedding? Surely we recommend you to opt for something particularly classic, no lines too modern or structured, but rather, on the contrary, opt for something soft and draped that will recall the sophistication of this style so ethereal, delicate, and dreamy, for this reason, prefer lightweight fabrics such as chiffon, georgette, voile and cady, all strictly pure and impalpable silk, which will perfectly match delicate lace trim, emblem of the shabby chic style.
If, on the other hand, you love tradition, this could be the right opportunity to pull out from the trunks in the attic the dress of your mother or even your grandmother, make some small changes and wear it on your wedding day, transmitting a very special retro allure.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The makeup should be light and at the same time fresh and bright; bet maybe on delicate shades of pink, instead as far as the hairstyle is concerned, nothing elaborate or too perfect; soft hair held in a natural semi-collected or maybe even in a braid, the important thing is that the look has that fake messy but a very elegant effect, just like the definition of the shabby chic style.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Never forget to think of a small souvenir to leave to your guests and, in this case, since the style of the wedding will be shabby chic, you can use as wedding favors something entirely handmade, such as:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Crocheted or macram\u00e9 doilies in pastel or fancy shades.<\/li>
- White frames of different types to which you have given that unmistakable aged effect of shabby chic style.<\/li>
- How about instead of white linen bags decorated with lace? Inside them, you could put some potpourri with delicate scents.<\/li>
- You could create small bottles of scented essences and decorate them with lace ribbon.<\/li>
- If you love the combination of wood and plaster, you could make small decorations to hang with string and ribbon fantasy, such as hearts, angels or birds.<\/li>
- Another viable alternative for this theme, could be the use of candles as wedding favors, there are now of different shapes and sizes, but especially with aged effects and pastel colors, you just need to pack them with ribbons and lace and put them in small cardboard boxes.<\/li><\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
