Vintage weddings are still all the rage right now, but sometimes it’s nice to see this trend in a different style. Which is why this shoot sent over by some Dallas based wedding suppliers and Nine Photography got me very excited indeed. They wanted to share the more retro, kitschy and quirky side of the vintage trend… and I love it!
“The shoot was instigated by Rita Rent my Dust and inspired by all of her amazing rental pieces”, photographer Kelli told me. “She has 100s of vintage radios and old record players, and she wanted to do a shoot that was fun and featured her very cool collection. So we took this shoot back to when Rock n Roll was born.”
The thing I love most about this set is that it doesn’t take itself too seriously… and having fun is what weddings should be all about!

A Trailer Trash Bridal Shoot with a Vintage Airstream
Kat
August 25, 2012
"Ever since I spent time travelling from Nashville to San Francisco last Autumn, I've benn obsessed with wanting to recreate vintage Americana!" wrote stylist Lynsey Le Keux. "This summer I had the pleasure of making it happen. I got together with some serious wedding industry talent including Sassy of Assassynation and Jo of The Couture Company. Our theme was 'trailer trash chic' which basically meant coney neck beers, dust-caked American cars, sweat smudged make up and broad blue skies. The aim was to portray unique bridal beauty against a backdrop of pure gritty trash... We wanted to inspire bridal styling outside of tradition and show our customers that they don't have to follow convention to rock a wedding - bridal beauty is subjective and one thing all the collaborators agreed on was how much we loved customers who did things their way."
