hi ladies. 
i got my dress...:) and basically i have to center my whole wedding theme around it because it's a deep tan color, called vintage gold. and looks very vintage/royal. i don't want an overly vintage theme, just the elements balanced by some modern colors and ideas. i want to do teal/turquoise for my BM dresses and maybe a cream colored rose...thoughts ideas on how to work vintage in. also on a tight budget so need to be creative. any help is appreciated!! thanks...

It is a stunning gown! I love it. When you say "vintage", what look/era/feel are you wanting to evoke? There are so many different tracks you could go down. Are you wanting to do more romantic/Victorian, shabby chic, mid 20th century, etc?

Judging purely on your dress, I think that sophisticated, romantic touches would look really nice-- lots of candles, maybe some lace that matches the color of your gown. You could work some vintage in with your veil, and especially in your jewelry.
