Jennie + Ryan's Old Hollywood Glamour Wedding
Vintage brides, rejoice! This 1930’s inspired wedding has everything you are looking for. Art Deco bride, check; decadent flowers, check; timeless film photographs, check. The utterly talented florist Kate from Flowerwild Designs sent me this wedding shot by film wedding photographer team from Docuvitae.
From the Bride, Jennie:
Various shades of purple, magenta, indigo and grey were the main palette colors we wanted to draw from. There is so much green and grey within the space that I felt like it really needed a pop of color. My first instinct was to go with warm, bold colors…but after discussions with Kate, the floral designer, we went with a cooler, juicier feel. Really embracing the bright blues with fuchsias and raspberry reds.
we wanted our wedding to feel like one big dinner party and wanted a venue that would be conducive to having such an event. we wanted the wedding to feel intimate, despite having a guest count of 160 and wanted it to feel cozy, as opposed to stuffy or overly formal. the venue that we picked was perfect. it’s basically a big smog check center with high ceilings and it is one open space. there is really an indoor and outdoor feel to the venue, which we thought was perfect, since we wanted everyone to feel like they were a part of the wedding, no matter whether they were seated inside or outside.
The vintagey / old hollywood feel was established first a foremost by my gown, shoes, hair etc. Then we went forward from there. All the containers for the flowers were from Flowerwild’s personal collection. Paired with the flowers, a mixture of 3 to 4 arr per table – it had a very mondern edge to a throwback look. this theme ran throughout, from the venue to the attire to the music to the decor.

Such a beautiful wedding! Love the bride’s flowers..extravagantly stunning!
I love her dress…beautiful.
those bridesmaids dresses are to die for! gorgeous!
stunning! where did she get that veil and what type is it?
I am going to find where she got it. That’s a mantilla veil in all its glory!
What a lovely bride and the dress and veil complement her perfectly. As always, must ask – what are the shoes?
lol, I asked Kate were she got her shoes last night! Will let you know as soon as we hear from Jennie. I also must find out where those fabulous bridesmaids dresses are from!
Loving the color palette. A truly glamourous wedding.
Those hazy b&w shots are to die for! gorgeous!
The veil!! <3 <3 <3 and I see some Holga in there too 🙂
These pics are GORGEOUS! The Smog Shoppe is one of my favorite venues in Los Angeles, as a wedding planner. And her dress and her bridesmaid dresses are perfect! Wonderful job!
Thank you everyone for your kind words! Kate and Laura (and all of my other vendors) did an unbelievably amazing job. To answer some of your questions, the shoes are by Pedro Garcia (I believe they are called the D’Orsay pumps?) and the bridesmaids dresses were purchased very inexpensively on Newportnews.com. I randomly ran into the site, and the dresses fit in seamlessly with the rest of the wedding decor. As for the veil, I am actually selling it 🙂
beautiful! love the holga!!
Hi Jennie…where are you selling your veil from? How much? I am willing to buy 🙂
Hi Megan. You can email me at [email protected]. 🙂
love the unique invitations!!
Love, love this wedding. Everything about it is so beautiful and fun. Congratulations!
My sister is getting married and she loves your dress. The dress is from Lazaro, but do you have more info on this dress. I can’t find.
Thank You for any help that you can give me.

Love this wedding! Those details are smashing and those frocks are too lovely!
i just love the veil and the neckline of the dress – so intricate and beautiful. And those flowers! pure romantic glamour
Do you know what kind of flowers the big blue/dark purple ones were in the bride’s bouquet?
That flower is called Clematis.
hope this helps!
I absolutely love the dress. any more details you can send me would be amazing as would love to track it down over here in the UK!
