Getting the Perfect 1920s Wedding Style

Many brides come to us wanting to know how to get the perfect Gatsby-inspired look for their wedding day. It’s a popular choice and one that really is elegant. Here are a few of our top tips for the perfect 1920s wedding style.


  • Sleek silk dresses are a great choice for this style. The goal here is to replicate the silent film stars of the era. Look for V-neck styles, deeply plunging backs, and a soft sheen for an authentic look. Lace accents can also give your gown a touch of vintage glamour.
  • Ivory, blush, and bisque tones are often better than white. While silvery white can be used, the antique style of off-white tones can give a more period look to your gown.
  • Headpieces are a big part of the look. As you shop for your dress, also consider what you’ll wear on your head. Low caps, veils, and headbands are all perfect choices.
  • Channel your inner flapper for a more casual style. If your wedding is more focused on the Prohibition-era parties, look for a dress that brings the flapper style back. For this you’ll want a short dress, with fringe, frills, or other touches that really give your gown some motion.


If you’re planning a 1920s style wedding, come to our Gilbert bridal boutique. We can help you find the perfect gown for your Gatsby-inspired wedding day.

Las Vegas Love: Pretty in Paris- Real Bride Sharill

 When getting married, there is a choice between choosing a venue based on accessibility for everyone to attend, or picking a venue your heart desires. 

Picking a venue that's easy to travel to is the best option when faced with such a tough decision, somewhere with a large airport, and many different accommodation choices. 

Our bride Sharill did just that, she planned her wedding in the city that never sleeps- Las Vegas!
Our Real Bride Sharill!


"My experience started with Heather at Suzanne’s bridal.  It wasn't until I actually put on a dress that I really felt like I was really getting married.  Her ability to know what would make me look amazing was what led me to my dream dress.  I have always had weight issues, and dress shopping was very stressful for me.  I always felt beautiful in my dress – every time I put it on."


"We got married at the Paris Hotel in Vegas.  Destination wedding – but STILL had close to 90 guests attend.  My husband and I are both ultra runners (hence the running shoes), and we wanted our guests to all wear their running shoes too, if they wanted (and almost all of them did).  As it turned out – our officiant was ALSO a runner.  He made our ceremony extra special.  We both wrote our own vows, and we had laughs, tears and much happiness throughout the ceremony.  We catered a reception at the buffet at the Paris Hotel.  BEST idea EVER!  To this day, people are still telling me we had the best wedding food of any wedding they've ever been to…as they got to eat what they wanted (and the Paris has an amazing buffet)!"


"I am 44.  Meeting my “solemate” (our names for each other) was something I always had hoped for, but didn't really know if it would ever happen.  Having the wedding come together so easily and perfectly for me makes me believe that when something truly is meant to be, the universe moves mountains to help make it happen.   Every minute of my wedding day was perfect.  I felt beautiful in my dress, and I know I married the man I was meant to be with forever."

"I can’t thank you enough for putting me in my dream dress.  I will always remember how beautiful I felt on my wedding day."


You sure looked beautiful Sharill, and we are so ecstatic for you and your "Solemate". 
Your gown was perfect and your venue looked enchanting!
xoxo
