Tall feathers in vases and golden elements are absolutely perfect for this sort of theme, as well as hanging crystals and other flapper-era favorites.

The Clothing

Again, think flapper era. This means glitzy dresses, dresses that are short and headbands with feathers. For men, suspenders are a wonderful addition to the wardrobe. This bride is absolutely stunning in fur, a headband and beaded fringe on her above-the-knee dress.
