How do I do this?

So I have been thinking that I want to incorporate some art deco touches into the wedding..esp since everything I'm wearing has that sort of feel and my RH really lends itself to that feeling as well.

I was thinking of putting the placecards into small art deco-ish frames (haven't figure out where I'm getting these or if they even exist...) but I can't really come up with anything else. I wanted to do something in the centerpieces but then again I don't really want to spend more than $30-$40 on them and I don't want them to be big...the RH lends itself to quieter, smaller CPs.

Help!!!! Anyone have any ideas?? TIA!!

Ughh!!! I typed a whole response to your question and it didn't post!!!!

Ok, let's see if I can summarize...

I suggest doing table numbers with art-deco cut-outs -- like to actually cut the #s out of those sorts of pattern designs. Very fun / sorta a decoupage look!

There are plenty of cake examples out there for you to go by if you want to do an art deco cake as well.

I found a whole smattering of ideas just from doing a search for 'art deco' and wedding.





I think one of the most affordable ways to incorporate art deco into a CP is to include some feathers, perhaps.

Sandra, ILU!!!!

My Mom suggested feather centerpieces to me after I posted this...I'd love to figure out some way do something like that without having it be overbearing

Glad to help, anniversary twin!!!!!!!!!

There are some really classy CPs with feathers out there. If I come across some more, I'll post them too!

I would do subtle but obivous touches.....in the placecards, the menus, the invitations, the cake. You can always do simple floral centerpieces and jazz it up with everything else.
