Art Deco Wedding
First, how do you plan an art deco wedding theme? That’s easy: choose these 1920s wedding ideas below and pick a black and gold color palette OR navy blue and gold palette. Done! You can plan an art deco party or wedding any time of year, any season. We see this theme most often during the fall and winter, simply because you’re likely indoors in a ballroom or reception hall. However, you can plan a party around a vintage 20’s wedding theme any time of year.
Let’s begin the easy way: with an art deco wedding save the date!
