Vintage WEDDING at Avalon's Ballroom

And here is what you wanted to see...

 

Our 30's outfits for our friends' wedding!

 

 

That was a nice ceremony...

 

 

shorter and more fun than our french ones!

 

 

Look at the beautiful vintage gown of the bride!!!

 

The ceremony took place in a small chapel in Avalon.

 

So much well dressed people!

 

After the chapel, girls changed their outfit for evening gowns...

 

 

Here is what I worn!

 

 

I don't wear a lot of 30's clothes...

 

 

 but I own this dress since many years and had never find the place to be able to wear it.

  

 As black is perhaps a bit sad for a wedding, I asked to the sweet Irene from Swell Dame to create for me this gardenia set! 

 

 

As Avalon is so small we walked from the chapel to the Ballroom...

 

Sylvain was wearing a 30's suit with nice wide legs pants!

 

 

Avalon's Casino is really an amazing place....

 

 

I stole this above picture from a friend of FB, I love it!

 

So many stars of the 30's-40's came to sing, play and dance there! 

  

 

The Ballroom is really breathless!!!!!!!!!!

 

The view had not to be missed!!!

 

 

Being there was like a dream...

 

Here is the bride with a second dress....

 

 

her bridemaids were just GORGEOUS!

 

 

Here is the groom wearing a cream vintage tuxedo...

 

 

these crazy boys were also wearing vintage tuxedos, you rocked guys!!!

 

 

This post is really long because I was not able to choose between those or those pictures...

 

 

hope that you will not feel bored...

  

 

We met a lot of people in Catalina... for exemple Chris (from Wacky Tacky) and his sister Mary, FB friends that I really wanted to meet in reality!

 

 

The dance floor can look a bit empty but that's because the space is so huge... 2000 people can fit in this room!

 

 

Did I mentionned that we found Sylvain's suit in a flea market in Belgium for 8 euros?

Moreover the size was perfect... what else to ask?

 

After a good meal....

 

 

we could not stay sitted anymore...

 

 

it was PARTY time!

 

 

The bride and the groom opened the ball...

 

 

and everybody followed them!

 

 

A lot of bands and special guests performed on stage...

 

 

 

 

Among them our friends Mary, Chris, Jody.

 

 

We even had the chance to meet Raffi, an eleven old french boy that plays and sings like Little Richard! We already knew him, he was finalist at a TV show in FRANCE! 

 

 

After a few Champagne cups...

 

the atmosphere warmed up a bit more...

 

 isn't it, Mr. Tiny?

 

All pictures with the moon come from Paper Moon Vintage.

That was an unforgettable evening... we want to thank Benny and Jen for asking us to be part of the best day of their lives!!!
