Finding the perfect flowers for a 1920s theme

Flowers

Q – We’re having a 1920s-inspired wedding and would love to incorporate the era into our decor. What flowers will create a luxurious atmosphere?

"The 1920s were all about black, white and gold highlights and opulence with sultry lighting. To incorporate the era into your wedding, there’s nothing better than feathers. Ostrich versions look amazing as table displays, opt for black and white options set in tall Eiffel vases. Incorporate lights at the base or hang crystal lights from the top to add an extra wow factor.

"Another good centrepiece to look out for is candelabra. Opt for tall, black ones decorated with feathers, soft organza material, diamantés and LED candles. Set these on a mirror and scatter crystals and lights, but ensure you don’t use naked flames.

"Finish the look with table cloths, table runners, jewels, crystals and white chair covers with black sashes."
