My 1920's wedding

Hello everyone! My wedding was 9/1/12 and we had a 1920's speakeasy theme. Just thought I would share some pictures in case others wanted to look.


All of our guests were encouraged to dress to the theme and had a blast! Even our older relatives had fun with all of it. One of the biggest hits was our bar menu that we created, inspired by real drinks from the 20's.

    We had - old fashioned, pimm's cup, the bronx, planter's punch and rootbeer float as our specialty drinks (though we had enough liquor anyone could request pretty much any drink)

    You can see our centerpieces in the photos:


    We set it up like a card game in progress with poker chips that matched our colors and decks of cards that also matched our colors. It wasn't extravagant but we thought it would be a cute way to make it seem more like a speakeasy.

    i noticed you had placement seating......was that a hassle because i wanted to do it but didn't want people to be mad if they didn't like the people they sat with

    It was a hassle making all of the escort cards, but I think it put the guests at ease because they knew exactly where to go (they didn't have to worry about trying to find a table with enough seats for everyone in their group etc.).
