The 1920s are considered the golden age of American history, known as the “Jazz Century.” Art Deco, romance, glamor, unbridled fun, and carelessness were characteristic of that time. The images of the 20s are again at the peak of popularity, for example, some couples prefer a Gatsby-style wedding, especially after the release of the film of the same name based on Fitzgerald’s book. Vintage cars, an abundance of decor, geometry in shapes, fizzy drinks, feathers and rhinestones, richly decorated dresses, and jewelry are used for weddings in the spirit of the Great Gatsby. How to organize it?
Image of the bride and groom
The Gatsby-style bride and groom are a chic couple who know a lot about fashion. A tuxedo and bow tie, suspenders and a hat, gelled hairstyles and varnish boots will make the groom a real gentleman. And the bride should not be afraid to overdo it with sparkles, beads, rhinestones and sequins - all this is welcome both on the dress and on accessories.

Wedding photo shoot in Gatsby style
The photo shoot, like the Gatsby-style wedding itself, is of no small importance. Plan in advance which photo cards you want to receive. Be inspired by great cinema and choose your favorite scenes. Recreate the interior, jazz mood. You can stop at the scene of the long-awaited meeting of the film's main characters Daisy and Jay, when they were surrounded by chic flower arrangements. With friends, take pictures as if you are having fun at a noisy party. You can arrange a photo shoot in a luxurious hotel room, casino, or restaurant.
Bride's hair and makeup
Hairstyles with waves and curls will look great on both long and short hair. A characteristic feature of the style is original hair decorations that replace the veil. Hairpins, tressoirs, headbands and lace bridal caps will add a unique charm to the image of a bride in the Art Deco style. The makeup should be bright, with an emphasis on the eyes (bold arrows or smoky eyes), on the lips (rich and bright lipstick colors), or you can highlight both - within the framework of this style it will not look tasteless.

Place
A luxurious country mansion with a room or open area will be perfect for the chosen theme. An outdoor celebration will be wonderful on a summer night. The decoration should be supplemented with sparklers, fire fountains, and fireworks.
Idea! A real doorman can greet guests.
This will instantly immerse everyone present in the necessary aristocratic atmosphere. A more budget option is a restaurant banquet hall with interiors in the Art Deco spirit. It would be great if the room is spacious, with a large marble staircase, columns, high ceiling and crystal chandelier.
An ordinary large hall will do, if you can decorate it to your liking. In this case, discuss all controversial issues with the administration in advance, so that on the eve of the celebration it does not suddenly turn out that it is strictly forbidden to change some element of the interior that does not fit in.
An unusual option would be a rented yacht or speedboat, but be aware of the risk of seasickness for any of your guests.
The bride's bouquet
Bouquets made from brooches and other shiny decorations and fabric flowers look amazing. You can complement a bouquet of flowers with Gatsby-style decor - feathers, strings of pearls, cameos and brooches.
Invitations
For a wedding in the Great Gatsby style, chic and luxury should be traced in any accessories and attributes. The invitation can be made from artificially aged paper. It is better not to use bright shades, but stick to pastel colors. For design, choose a beautiful font reminiscent of vintage. Invitations can be simple in shape, but decorated with gold monograms and the holiday logo. The description of the postcard should contain not only information about the date and place of the celebration, but also the dress code. It is better to immediately indicate what the guests should wear so that there are no awkward moments at the wedding.
Dress code for guests
Let guests support the theme of the wedding by following the dress code set by the style. The guests' outfits are similar to those of the bride and groom. For ladies, sparkly or bright cocktail and evening dresses are suitable, complemented by noticeable jewelry, fur boas and feather boas, and for gentlemen - a suit option with stylish men's accessories.
Distinctive features
20's Wedding - Celebrating Great Gatsby !
This image is characterized by brilliance, noble clothing and pomp.
Be sure to notify your guests of your intention to celebrate your wedding in 1920s style. This is best stated in the invitation, indicating recommendations for appearance. Ideally, women should wear evening dresses from that era and style their hair in the style of those eras. Men can also wear jackets with a coat on top.
A pre-planned wedding is the key to success. The summer period would be ideal.
Invitations
Vintage-style printing design with monograms, swirls, patterns and hand-glued rhinestones and lace is just what you need.
Printing
Invitation cards are the face of a wedding, which means that in addition to the place, time and heroes of the occasion, they must emphasize the theme of the event, not only describe the dress code, but also inspire the creation of outfits.
A wonderful idea is gold sublimation printing on a dark background, and the font should be vintage, in the style of old posters or newspapers. All kinds of curls, small patterns, and emblems are perfect. Additionally, you can decorate the cards with lace ribbon, feather or rhinestones. If you prefer a light background, then beige rectangles with a lace pattern look no less elegant. Be sure to add seating signs to your table. It would be good if they were made in the same color scheme and style as the invitations. This will add elegance to the celebration, and in addition, place cards will further decorate the tables.
If you seat guests by family, then the table itself can be called by the desired surname. Such a card must certainly be included in the decor in the most interesting way possible, for example, in a cloud of delicate feathers.
Floristry and decor
In such a rich and luxurious style as Art Deco, designers and decorators can give free rein to their imagination and spare no expense in decoration. Feathers, gilding, crystal, vintage chandeliers and furniture, textured fabrics, dim lighting and candles, a sea of flowers... Isn't this a fairy tale?
