In love with The Great Gatsby

It apparent to me by now that I’m not the only one in love with this fabulously glamorous Mr. Gatsby. Even the event décor industry has had a love affair with all things classy and vintage. The trend that we are still in love will not be ending anytime soon! With the 2013 Baz Luhrmann film remake of the F.Scott Fitzgerald book The Great Gatsby, paired with the new season of sultry Downtown Abbey, the 1920’s flapper style will have an expanded presence with wedding dresses and glittering themes. We’ve all seen the reproduction on 1920’s inspired veils, headpieces and long ropes of knotted pearls, my favorite. But how do you pull of something like this within the budget? With lace linens and overlays. Gold sparkle metallic ornamented mesh, to vintage candle holders and pearl adorn candles. Here is some of my favorite theme ideas and a local decorator to help you pull of a classy vintage era with out the Kardashians’ checkbook.
