Few decades were as glitzy and glamorous as the 20’s, so many brides choose to recreate that elegance and beauty with flapper themed weddings. Whether you’ve already decided on this theme or you’re still in the brainstorming phase, you’ll certainly enjoy these beautiful photos that can help you plan a stunning flapper wedding.
The Dress
In the 1920’s, wedding dresses were primarily A-line dresses, often richly embroidered or covered with sequin designs. Brides can find authentic vintage dresses from the 20’s, or choose to have a new one created in the flapper style. Dresses in off-white or champagne colors were also very popular. We love this gorgeous calf-length vintage gown, covered in beautiful embroidery.
