Vintage silver wedding decorations

The past two weeks of planning have been super fun…I’ve started looking for vintage silver & silverplate serving pieces, and it’s like a little treasure hunt.  There are so many beautiful things out there.  I love all of the intricate details in these old pieces.  

I’ve been looking for 1930s-40s holloware and serving pieces. A lot of it is surprisingly inexpensive, especially on eBay and Etsy, and I’m excited by the idea of having gorgeous keepsakes to entertain with long after the wedding is over. :)

This is what I’ve found so far…

A Wallace Silver pierced bread basket (for programs)

A decadent little basket, stamped “Made in Occupied Japan” (for flower girl)

An International Silver basket (for confetti)

I know it doesn’t match, but finding a matching set turns out to be pretty much impossible.
