When planning a 1920s wedding reception all you need to do is to set your mind on everything old. Not old-old as in ancient or traditionally conservative, but just old-fashion. Our wedding designers show us a beautiful approach to this style that is based on both the old and the new look. The best way to go for those who don’t want their wedding to be outdated is the modern-vintage style. We brought a few beautiful images of unique 1920s decorations and arrangements.

You can perhaps get inspired from these photos and try to build your own style. You can choose to follow the spectacular Art Deco style and create a bold and dramatically romantic wedding. Use anything that you can find in your grandmother’s home, like old books, vintage bottles or jars, cans, cups, urns and tea tins, birdcages, suitcases, photo-frames. Make sure they all look dusty. The used look is ideal for vintage wedding receptions. If you can’t find anything in your grandma’s closet, take a trip to the flea market. Or try at local thrift stores and boutiques.

For an Art Deco theme you can use the black and white scheme or another crisp mix accented with splashes of silver and red. You should dress up the entire party in the classic colors of your wedding. The party has to be fun, funky and dancing. So make sure you use the best jazz music for your guests to dance the night away until the morning. 1920s wedding receptions look fabulous in the evening hours. Use sensual soft lights to create an intimate ambiance and a cozy-relaxed mood for your attendants. The nonchalant flair of this era fits perfectly well the vintage bride. She can go for a flapper dress and steal away the show.
