Fresh flowers, such as roses, dahlias, peonies, lilies, as well as crystals, candelabra and candles of simple form will add character to the ceremony. It is worth paying attention to the tableware and choose elegant cutlery, crystal glasses and matching table covers in a subdued color.
The cake for a wedding in classical style should be both tasty and adjusted in style to the remaining decorations. It is worth resigning from excessive decorations and heavy sugar paste. A minimalist style cake can be decorated with fresh flowers, macaroons and edible gold.
At a classic style wedding, the bride will look beautiful in a delicate dress with a corset and a smooth flowing bottom. A dress with an A-line cut is also considered very elegant. Many women also appreciate minimalist cuts, which can be complemented with jewelry and a romantic veil. An extension of the wedding dress can also be a spectacular train. It is important to maintain moderation and that the dress emphasizes the beauty of the bride. As for the groom, classic tailor-made suits make the biggest impression. An elegant wedding suit in black or navy blue, matched with a timeless white shirt is a safe choice. At a classic style wedding there is no room for experimenting with colors and cuts. A tuxedo can be an alternative to a suit.
