Finding Your Perfect Match with Sàwai Black 


Your wedding is a reflection of your love story. Shouldn’t the theme be a perfect blend of past elegance and future aspirations?



When it comes to planning a wedding, the theme you choose sets the tone for your entire celebration. From the opulent grace of vintage aesthetics to the sleek sophistication of modern design, each style brings its unique charm to the table. But how do you choose the right luxury theme that aligns with your personal taste and creates an unforgettable experience?


Why Personalization Matters?


Personalization is key in creating a wedding that feels truly yours. From bespoke floral arrangements to customised décor and entertainment, every detail should be a reflection of your journey together. 

Our expertise in curating bespoke weddings ensures that your celebration is as unique as your love story, blending luxury with personal touches to craft a truly unforgettable event.


Embracing the Charm of Vintage Weddings


Vintage weddings evoke a sense of nostalgia and romance, often inspired by different eras such as the Roaring Twenties, Victorian England, or the Classic Hollywood Glamour of the 1950s. These themes are characterised by their attention to detail and love for intricate designs, including lace, pearls, and antique furnishings.


Key Elements of Vintage Weddings:


Elegant Décor : Think of delicate floral arrangements, vintage candelabras, and antique furniture that transport you and your guests back in time.


Timeless Attire: Brides often opt for classic silhouettes with vintage-inspired lace and beading, while grooms might choose a tailored suit from a bygone era.


Retro Touches: Incorporate elements like old-fashioned typewriters for guest books or vintage cars for transportation to enhance the nostalgic feel.


Modern Weddings: Sleek and Sophisticated


In contrast, modern weddings are all about clean lines, minimalistic décor, and a contemporary aesthetic. This theme is perfect for couples who appreciate simplicity and sophistication, with an emphasis on sleek designs and innovative elements.

Key Elements of Modern Weddings:


Streamlined Decor: Opt for a minimalist approach with geometric shapes, monochromatic colour schemes, and high-end materials like glass and metal.


Contemporary Attire: Brides and grooms often choose elegant, streamlined outfits with modern cuts and understated elegance.


Innovative Details: Modern weddings can include unique features like LED lighting, interactive guest experiences, and modern art installations.
