A Mad Men Wedding

kirstina-hendricks

I’m not one to post a lot of celebrity weddings or magazine scans on Once Wed, but when I spotted Christina Hendricks wedding to Geoffrey Arend in the recent issue of In Style Weddings…I couldn’t resist sharing a bit here with you. Not only am I huge fan of the show Mad Men, but their flowers were designed by Saipua and they dressed their entire bridal party in vintage…swoon.

What a great wedding! Love that it was simple and warm feeling – not cookie cutter at all! And those bridesmaids!!

I think you made a good exception here. These are amazing! I love how intimate and unique this event looks. Not your typical hollywood wedding affair.

This actress is so beautiful, I just love how the warm colors enhance her features.

[...] a mad men wedding. i love this new idea of the brides maids wearing different dresses with a similar color scheme or just funky dresses. this wedding definitely is classy and the couples personality oozes through. LOVE. [...]

When I heard about Christina and Geoffrey I thought it was such a bizarre pairing, but it looks like bizarre is beautiful in this case! How lovely!

Two people in love, nothing bizarre about that! Congrats to the stunning bride and her handsome groom. My fiance and I have been avid fans of Mad Men since the beginning. We love “Joan”. Thanks for sharing Christina’s wedding!

My favorite shot is the bride with her bridesmaids. I love the bride’s look in that shot!

I honestly can’t get enough of the vintagey wedding thing right now. Also, of Christina Hendricks.

I can’t see her in a wedding without thinking of the Firefly episode wherein her character marries Mal and then tries to kill him. Just throwing in that nerdy aside.

A mad men wedding? I love the title from the start and the pictures are stupendous! (I felt like that adjective was a bit 10 year old ish, but it truly is)

Can you tell me who the men’s suit designer is?
And the designer of the dress that the bridesmaid that is directly left of the bride is wearing?

I just love that look, it is almost olde English but somewhat contemporary as well. Bride and groom bth look fantastic, thanks for sharing.

12/30/09 at 10:56 am

I wish to have milky skin like that. She is such a beautiful woman – an almost antique vision of a virginal, yet seductive bride. Wow!

12/30/09 at 12:25 pm

mind blown! this is such a beautiful wedding!! i love the dresses and the details fit the look so well! congrats to the beautiful couple!!

12/30/09 at 12:28 pm

*Swoon* is right! How picture perfect those details are!

JOOOAAAAANNNNN!!!!

i love Joan. I almost gave up on madmen last season without her. And then they brought her back at the end. sooo pretty. and so refreshing to see a celeb wedding that isn’t tacky and overdone.

Is that not fair? do they sometimes have cute, creative weddings?

good post emily!

Yeah, even at her wedding she looks like the real deal. She is beautiful and has a touch of class when wearing vintage.

She is brillant in Mad Men
