This week’s wedding inspiration comes in flashback form…..straight from the roaring twenties! One of my favorite novels in High School was “The Great Gatsby” and ever since reading about the fabulous parties in the book, I can’t help but imagine how diving a twenties themed wedding would be. Jazz bands, canapes, champagne fountains….doesn’t it sound beyond fabu?! I think so.
I’m having a passionate love affair with that divine sparkly dress right there! I love love love it!
Find the sequin dress here the ruffle dress here Find the wine colored dress here. The best part? All of these dresses are under 100 bucks! SCORE. Big time, yo! The black jewels are from Kenneth Jay Lane for $150 and the other jewelry and shoes can be found on net-a-porter. (Except for the pink shoes that can be found here for $170!)
This vintage engagement ring is TO DIE FOR! It’s from Fay Cullen and it is divine!
I imagine a party with a jazz band under a huge white tent would be simply spectacular for this event. Plenty of florals like gardenias and lilies to grace the tables would look fabulous too! One easy way to decorate would be to use vintage photographs from the nineteen twenties to place on the tables or hang on the walls like the one below.
Use vintage photographs like this to decorate your space. It’s cheap and easy!
Also, I had to post the two pictures of Katy Perry and Drew Barrymore because their 20’s style hairdo’s are simply stunning! Try out some vintage jewels in your pin curled hair and dark dramatic makeup to make your look complete!
Love this hair style!
Red lips and charcoal eyes hidden by a bird cage veil
create the perfect 20’s style!
What is your favorite era? Will you be incorporating it into your wedding?
