Mrs. Lightning, Cape Town Age and Occupation: 22, Journalist and Graphic Designer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 23, Computer Scientist Engagement Date: December 27, 2008 Wedding Date: September 2009 Venue: Hout Bay Manor About Me: I'm a young American living abroad in the beautiful city of Cape Town with a wonderful South African fiance and our crazy kitty Zeus. We're young, driven and madly in love. Together we're pursuing our wildest dreams including our biggest undertaking yet, a vintage retrospective wedding filled to the brim with DIY madness. I have an unnatural attraction to cake, a passion for blogging and a love of good design. While I might be an overly obsessive creative with too many ideas and nowhere to put them, Mr Lightning is my biggest fan and I can't wait to make my true love mine.

Our vintage retrospective wedding wouldn’t be complete without a little mod to match the oldies rock and roll music we’ll be playing at the wedding. One of these boards was inspired by the beautiful film Breathless by Jean Luc Godard, which I studied at university. If you haven’t watched it, you should. Ah, another theme to add to my list. It seems I can’t help myself.

Not my whole wedding, but my look — from Funny Face. I didn’t ask my groom to dress like Fred Astaire, though. Love the colors in your photos!

Love the pink, yellow, black, and white together!
I guess our wedding will have little splashes of Alice in Wonderland whimsy.

I love the color scheme together and your inspiration boards. We didn’t use a movie for our color inspiration, but I think it’s a great idea!

Great inspiration boards. Maybe a little Coraline for my wedding. It’s got such great crafty details, but the wedding probably won’t be as ’scary’ as the movie.

The table numbers in that last photo are my inspiration for my table numbers. LOVE them!

I love your colors. And you’re really talented at putting those inspiration boards together- I’m definitely impressed :). I used Finding Neverland for some decor inspiration
