1920s New Year’s Eve Wedding in Savannah | Dana + Robby
Up today we have this fabulous, fun-filled and glamorous 1920s New Year’s Eve wedding in Savannah, Georgia, sent to us from Brandy Angel Photography.
From the bride:
We chose Savannah, GA as we wanted to do a destination wedding as a getaway for us and our families and friends that could make the trek! We also wanted to do a wedding on New Year’s Eve, and decided it would be EXTRA fun if we added a 1920’s speakeasy/Gatsby-esque theme to it for that evening. We weren’t sure if we were crazy or brilliant with that timing but with kids not having to miss school for travel, we got the blessing and went for it!
We knew we wanted to capture the speakeasy vibe and with the beautifully eclectic and vintage vibe of Soho South Cafe, we knew it did not need much. We bought cigar boxes from our local cigar bar, Maxwell’s in Woodstock, GA and brought them to Savannah, where our florist and rental company, Carlson’s added floral design to each one of them. We also rented vintage chairs and couch for the bar, along with an LED sign “The Frederickses” which we had built specifically to make our own little speakeasy.
Do you have any wedding planning or marriage advice that you’d like to share with other couples planning their day?
Be true to you. Don’t follow rules. Make it fun for yourselves, too, not just your guests. Don’t fall victim to societal pressures to do or not do certain things. Slow down, eat dinner, and enjoy every single moment.
Received this gorgeous submission from Gideon Photography, and what a pretty inspirational shoot this was. Nothing art deco here, but some beautifully art nouveau / turn of the century design elements and inspiration pieces. It doesn’t hurt to have a couple who looks like this showing it all off… So yes! We love. Beautiful and …
Just a few images today from a winter wedding inspiration shoot that struck my fancy… Admittedly not really art deco themed, but it has a vintage flair, and this Snow White inspired shoot has plenty to love: the bride’s hair and makeup (love that dark lip! As always, 1920s makeup FTW), those bright reds against …
What a spectacular sunrise elopement we have today, from Brit Nicole Photography! With a simple, intimate ceremony like this, each detail is highlighted, and every one in this beautiful wedding stands out – classic, elegant and absolutely lovely. The idea of a sunrise ceremony to mark the beginning of a new chapter is perfection, as …
You guys: I seriously love this beautiful roaring twenties wedding inspiration shoot, sent to us from O E I L Photography. So good! Taken in Florida, and the Florida part is actually key, because while these are perfect, gorgeous images all on their own, one of the things I love most is that they are …
