Aw man, so many ideas! Red, gold, black, opulent. Fashion wise, you could go for the femme fatale look that she has in the bulk of the movie or you could go with the elaborate bollywood look she has in the bride scene in the play at the end.

Here's some things I found when I googled moulin rouge wedding.

It's been done, and there are some really great ideas out there. I'd say watch the movie, and then pick out your favorite elements and try to find ways to incorporate them.

Also check out Offbeat Bride website. There are a number of brides who did similar looks while on a budget.
