One of the hottest 2019 wedding trends aside from quirky use of balloons is the luxe, dark color palette. Mix up that palette with modern details and you're super good to go! However, for today's blog, we decide to mix things up a bit. Who's to say vintage and modern don't go together? All photos are from the amazing Kristina Curtis. Check out her work here.

Different shades of green and blue also go great with our featured backdrop. Just make sure the shades are not too similar to mallard blue so the silk velvet ribbons won't get washed out with the background.

We're also loving the rugged looks of silk velvet ribbons. It somehow contributes to the vintage aspect of the flatlay. If you think there's too much color happening already, tone it down with neutral shades of white and beige.
