Roaring 20s Theme Weddings
The 1920's was a time of celebration. It was an era about Jazz, dancing, fine clothing, and entertaining. A Roaring 20's theme can add fun and uniqueness to any wedding, and will definitely make it memorable. Here are a few ideas for a 20's themed wedding. Start by transforming your wedding party into a dark jazzy nightclub and hire a Jazz band. Have guests dress as their favorite silent movie stars or misicians, such as Bonnie & Clyde, Don Juan, Al Capone, Mae West, Rudolph Valentino, Bugsy Malone, Duke Ellington, or Clara Bow, just to name a few. The brides apparel should be elegant. Knee length, dropped waist, chiffon and/or silk dresses, long beaded necklaces, and red lipstick. Cloches were popular, bands of silk flowers worn low on the head, and Juliet style caps. Fragrant orchids and lilies were a favorite. The bridesmaids could wear flapper dresses with feathers and fringe, seamed stockings, and cross-strap Mary Jane shoes. Although the style was risque for the time, it was also very glamorous. Men were extremely stylish in tuxedos, spats, and top hats. Zoot suits with bold wide ties, polished wingtip shoes, and slicked back hair. Fedoras and pin striped suits. Men in the 20's were rough, sleek, and romantic.
The meal should be All-Amercian with rich roasted meats, potatoes, and decadent desserts. Ice down huge metal troffs with "hooch", "moonshine", and "gin". Have each table assigned to a 20's theme or event such as the "Jazz" table, "Prohibition" table, "Gangster" table, "Charleston" table, "Ragtime" table, or the "Shimmy" table. Decorate with empty champagne bottles, large feathers and beads.
Hold a best dance or best costume contest. Create a casino corner for Poker, Black Jack, and Craps. All winnings to be donated to the bride and groom. Hire a photographer to take pictures of your guests in their 20's garb, and have someone take Polaroid pictures to share and take home, for memories of a wedding that will soon not be forgotten.
