Wedding themes - Art Deco

As well as looking at wedding colours, I'll also be looking at a number of different wedding themes on the blog.  First up it's Art Deco

A lot of wedding themes are inspired by tv, books and film and this theme is no different, the inspiration being the popular film (and book) the Great Gatsby.  Starting in the 1920s and running right through to the late 1940's Art Deco can be characterised by rich colours, geometric shapes and lavish decoration.  To me, its screams luxury and glamor!

Art deco influence can be seen in many wedding dress designs this year and has also had an influence on the grooms attire.  Just look at all that pretty detailing on the back of this wedding dress....

This lovely cake and cage for wedding wishes or cards from your guests are great subtle ways of introducing art deco in to your wedding.....


These hair accessories and pieces of jewellery are beautiful, I particularly like the earrings and the beautiful ring. 
 
You can also find wedding invitations, place cards and gift tags all inspired by art deco to see your theme right through.  Head on over to my shop on etsy and you can find some lovely black, white and gold art deco inspired stationery.
 
Art deco is going to be a big trend for 2014.  It's one of my personal favourites and if I wasn't getting married abroad I would definitely be going for this sort of look - unfortunately it doesn't quite sit right with a beach wedding!
