What should women wear to a 1920s themed wedding?

Flapper-Inspired Dresses

Opt for knee-length dresses with fringe, sequins, and beading. Look for drop-waist silhouettes or flowing, lightweight fabrics. (Recommended - ie blacks, charcoal, jewel tones, cream and white) Yes, you heard correct. The bride is ok if you where cream or white.

Feather or Jeweled Headpieces

Feathered or Jeweled Headpieces: Channel the iconic flapper style with a chic headband, feathered fascinator, or jeweled hair comb.

Art Deco Jewelry

Complete the look with bold, geometric designs in earrings, necklaces, or bracelets.

T-strap Flats (This is an outdoor event)

Classic footwear of the 1920s, these shoes will keep you dancing all night long. Remember this is an outside event with uneven ground, so maybe a 1920s flat would be more comfortable.

What should men wear to a 1920s themed wedding?

Three-Piece Suits

Go for a dapper, tailored look with a vintage-inspired suit. Black or charcoal grey colors bring evening sophistication.

Bow Ties & Pocket Squares

Add a splash of personality with a silk bow tie and a coordinating pocket square.

Suspenders and Newsboy Caps

For a more casual 1920s look, try suspenders paired with a newsboy or flat cap.

Wingtip Shoes

The finishing touch to any Gatsby-esque outfit.

Feel free to get creative and have fun with accessories! Whether you’re channeling the glitz and glamour of a 1920s speakeasy or the charm of a vintage event your attire will bring our theme to life.
