Scenery
The Oscars are the biggest event in the film industry. Therefore, it is advisable to rent a hall or restaurant that matches the status of the event - spacious, with rich curtains and expensive furniture. At the main entrance, lay out the usual red carpet and place posts with fencing ropes. Along the path there are paparazzi with cameras, real ones (extras) or props made of cardboard, you can dress up mannequins. An important part of the script is a photo at the entrance, against the backdrop of the “sponsor’s” stand or poster.
Don't forget to place Oscar figures here and there. Small figurines that are suitable as rewards for guests can be made from “Ken” dolls (the one that is Barbie’s groom). Glue a round base with sides out of cardboard, fill it with construction foam and drown the doll’s feet in it. Just first undress the future Oscar and paint it with gold from a spray can, and cover the cardboard base with the same paint. Gold paint + naked mannequin – a human-sized Oscar is ready!
Decorate the hall with balloons (star-shaped or round), streamers, and electric garlands. Everything should shine and shimmer with gold or silver! Background colors: red, deep blue or green are appropriate, classic black and white combination. On the walls there are photos of celebrities, posters, stills from films. If you know how to use the editor, take humorous photos of your friends in the company of world stars (on vacation in the country, at social events) or insert photos of friends directly into stills from films.
Divide the room into seating areas and a stage. It is not necessary to clutter the podium; the stage can be separated by an arch of balloons, a shower of garlands, and flowers. Direct the light onto the stage, place a microphone (you can use a fake one). Behind the stage you can hang a plasma and play clips of award ceremonies from past years. Relaxation areas - soft sofas and armchairs, small tables. On the floor there are large vases with huge bouquets or feathers, palm trees.
Everything is very stylish, tasteful and incredibly expensive. To a minimum, you can use everything related to cinema - film, firecrackers, popcorn, tickets, etc. But don’t overdo it, because today is a special evening! Movie paraphernalia is more suitable for a Hollywood party or celebration based on your favorite movie.
Invitations:
- a postcard in the shape of a movie camera, microphone or Oscar, a star from the Walk of Fame;
- exclusive personalized invitation on embossed gold paper, in a beautiful expensive envelope;
- Oscar figurine crowning a box with an invitation inside.

Bride's dress and groom's suit
Fluffy and A-line wedding dresses are not suitable for an Oscar-style wedding. For a spectacular appearance on the red carpet, the bride is recommended to wear a wedding dress with a straight silhouette with a long train or a “Mermaid” dress. A short vintage dress will also suit your wedding style. Moreover, the color of the dress can be not only traditionally white, but also red or gold. The groom will look like a Hollywood movie star in an elegant tuxedo or a black formal suit.
Wedding accessories
The most important wedding attribute, the Oscar, can be purchased by newlyweds at the Antyur gift shop. At the request of the newlyweds, the gold figurine will be made of any size. In addition, the studio’s specialists will think through all the details of a Hollywood wedding and, with the help of unique handmade accessories, will turn the holiday into a brilliant and solemn ceremony. In traditional Oscar colors - gold, red and black - designers will decorate invitations, place cards and decorations for banquet tables. In invitations to an Oscar-style celebration, it is necessary to warn guests that the wedding style requires a strict dress code - evening dresses for women and black suits or tuxedos for men. At Antyur you can also order decoration of the banquet hall with fabric, fresh flowers and balloons, themed decoration of the place for a photo shoot, chair covers, red carpet, wedding glasses, firecracker and much more. All handmade accessories must be ordered no later than a month before the celebration. Until the end of April there is a 10% discount on hall decoration. The Antyur gift atelier will make any accessory for the newlyweds, even for the most unusual wedding.

Photographer
For an Oscar-themed wedding, it is better to choose a photographer who prefers to shoot in a reportage style. And for a photo shoot of guests as they walk along the red carpet, it is recommended to invite several specialists. Numerous flashes of their cameras will create the necessary ambiance. Newlyweds should take into account that the actual passage of guests along the red carpet, as another necessary attribute of an Oscar wedding, will take longer than at a traditional wedding.
Video shooting
Videography of an Oscar-style wedding is worth mentioning separately. It is advisable that a whole team of a director, a cameraman and an assistant cameraman with a clapperboard work with the newlyweds on their special day. This will create the atmosphere of a real filming process. In addition to filming the celebration itself, the videographer will have to prepare clips in advance that will be shown on the big screen during the banquet. Especially for the Oscar-style wedding, Oleg Prudnikov’s New Studio will film and edit a “love story” of the newlyweds in the format of a movie trailer. An additional pleasant surprise for guests will be a short report about the wedding day itself. Studio specialists will quickly edit this music video before the banquet. In addition, at the festive evening the public will be offered to watch an interview with the guests of the celebration (“Welcome”), also filmed and edited by Oleg Prudnikov’s studio on the wedding day. Thanks to the fact that the studio’s specialists film the ceremony with two cameras, the newlyweds will receive a variety of video material as a souvenir - from short 3-5 minute videos to a full-fledged wedding film. The cost of studio videographer services starts from 10 thousand rubles. For weddings in the 2015 season (from March 8 to August 31), “New Studio” provides a 20% discount on the cost of video shooting.

Suits
If you're planning a costume contest, agree with your friends in advance about their roles. There is a wonderful service that selects photographs of celebrities similar to the uploaded photo of any person - this will make it easier to decide. To prevent your friends from forgetting who is who, indicate the name of the star in the invitation.
Who needs these complications? Then, stars and asterisks, everything is in your hands! Wear the most fashionable and stylish evening dress, preferably floor-length. Although, if you plan to dance, choose the cocktail option. Definitely high heels, chic hairstyle, bright evening makeup and manicure. Don't forget accessories - a tiny clutch, diamonds (or "diamonds"?), jewelry in your hair.
Star men are no less elegant than women: a classic trouser suit, a crisp white shirt, polished shoes, a bow tie or a tie. Accessories are catchy and stylish - cufflinks, clips, watches, a scarf or a flower in a buttonhole. A hat and a cane are also appropriate; they add weight and significance to any person.
1997, Nicole Kidman in Christian Dior
No less impressively, one of the most beautiful couples in Hollywood paraded along the red carpet: Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise, who was nominated for Best Actor. Cruise's classic tuxedo was completely outshone by his companion's luxurious yellow dress, trimmed with original oriental-style embroidery.
Nicole's unusual attire made a breakthrough in the dress code of the Oscar ceremony. The good tone of the then red carpet fashion was nude chiffon outfits, and the new creative director of Dior John Galliano proposed something extravagant. The yellow silk dress combined with silver shoes created a real sensation and made it a standard for many world stars.
Menu
Only light snacks that can be put in your mouth and eaten using a minimum of utensils. Of course, this is your party, but this option fits into the theme of the evening. You can organize a buffet - a table bursting with tartlets, delicacies on skewers, caviar and seafood, covered with a satin tablecloth to the floor. Or arrange small tables around the room: the same long tablecloths, expensive dishes, name plates.
Decorate the table(s) with roses or orchids in miniature vases, Oscar figurines, and fruit arrangements. Gold rings on napkins, cup holders with printed posters or stills from popular movies. You can cut fruits and vegetables in the shape of stars, decorate desserts with stars, of which there should be a lot - biscuits, chocolate, rolls, cakes, ice cream. Any drinks, but champagne in buckets and crystal must be present on the tables, at least for the ambiance.
Party Invitations
First of all, you need to imagine what the invitations will be like. Perhaps this will be one of the difficult stages. You, of course, want your invitations to be the most beautiful and best, and at the same time the most stylish. We advise you to use classic time-tested options that will please all your guests.
