How to set the table in a vintage way?!

Guests usually love a unique vintage style wedding reception, engagement, birthday, Christmas party or a simple dinner decoration...such a fun idea...but where to start, and most importantly how to make an impression without spending a fortune?

I was collecting some inspiring examples of vintage table settings and retro food styling photo shoots, all simple and inexpensive ideas to create a unique atmosphere
