If you are looking for unique theme for a wedding that your guests aren’t likely to soon forget maybe you should consider a Roaring 20s wedding theme.

Wedding Music

Jazz was all the rage during the 1920s so make sure your band plays lots of jazz music that is lively and upbeat. Think about The Great Gatsby with large Ostrich feathers, shorter dresses, long strands of pearls, provocative make-up.

Wedding Invitations

Your wedding invitations will set the theme for the party so you will want to make sure that they are eye-catching. Why not use vintage clipart to add to your invitations. For the wedding favors you could create a homemade CD with a selection of 1920s jazz music.

Guest Attire

You might want to stress that guests arrive wearing '20s garb. Can you just imagine a room full of people wearing silver dresses, Zoot suits, long strings of beads, and feathers in their hats?

Wedding Decorations and Color Scheme

For the wedding decorations for your wedding party, transform the location you pick into a jazz nightclub. Think silver, red and streaming ribbons and display black and white photos of famous 20s actors, singers and musicians. Black and white works well with a 1920s wedding theme.

Wedding Favors

Create fancy fans using vintage clipart of happy couples, angels and cherubs, or fancy ladies surrounded by large bouquets of flowers or hearts.

Bride and Groom Attire

The bride could wear a dress that is short in the front and long in the back which was a common style for this era. In addition, you should consider long strings of pearls. Coco Chanel and Madeleine et Madeleine and Worth were all famous designers of the era so you might want to do a bit of research to find out what styles were popular from these designers at that time.

The groom also has many choices with a 20s style wedding theme. The most fun would be a Zoot Suit. These were all the craze in the roaring 20s and would complete the look. Pinstripes were also popular during this time.

Wedding Photographs

Hhave some of your photos taken in black and white or sepia tones for a vintage look.

Wedding Activities

If the weather permits why not have a game of croquet setup outside of the wedding hall. Guests can play while they sip mint julips and eat cucumber sandwiches.
