The heart is one of the most recognised symbol for love. When it isn’t overdone, a heart wedding theme can be whimsical, sophisticated and incredibly romantic.

This weekend we catered for a wedding at Old Moat Hall, a beautiful venue in Chelford, Cheshire, that incorporated the heart theme along with some vintage touches.

The simple and sweet hearts theme can be infused in details throughout the wedding and reception. This table plan made from caging is shaped like a heart with detailing, the delicate flowers and luggage tags adds a nostalgic rustic touch.

The elegant neutrals of the marquee layout creates a relaxed atmosphere whilst enhancing the romantic elements of the table decoration. The chiavari is a very popular chair style, which are suited to both modern and formal occasions. They add to the vintage feel of the decoration along with the luggage tag place cards and flower and frame centrepieces.

The weekend’s glorious wedding allowed for an area outside in Old Moat Hall’s beautiful gardens. The heart theme continued throughout the venue with paper heart decorations and lanterns featuring heart shaped cut outs. There was also traditional romantic phrases placed around the venue, including the ‘Roses are Red’ sign hanging from a beautifully blooming tree.

We also spotted this charming poem about how the newlyweds feel about each other:

Would you go for a traditional romantic heart shaped theme for your wedding? We’d love to hear your thoughts.
