Art Deco Wedding Glamour – Vintage Miami Beach Style (part 1)

Welcome all South Florida Destination Brides. One the most favored styles or themes in the wedding industry now is vintage, primarily Art Deco and the Roaring Twenties, with all its flappers, feathers, crystal and lace.

 

 

So, this week I wanted to highlight this retro glam wedding trend through the years. This blog takes you to Miami Beach during the Jazz Era, and to the fashionable bridal flapper beauty of dazzling dresses with exquisite embellishments and gorgeous head pieces.

 

 

The Roaring 1920’s era is not only in vogue right now. Its sensational style, swank and sound is sure to leave your guests wanting more. The Roaring 1920’s era is stylish, feminine and bold, while at the same time, nonchalant and glamorous.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since the 1920’s, couples wanted to spend their honeymoons in the high life of art deco surroundings. Voila! Miami Beach was not only born, but was born to be the place to see and be seen! It has enjoyed this popularity since its inception, and is proving to stand the test of time as year after year couples come from all over the world to enjoy this art deco tropical playground. For the 1920’s Deco Bride – Miami Beach was, and continues to be the wedding capital of exploration.

 

 

With all the buzz surrounding Miami Beach, the fashion, style and look of the early 20th century is all the rage. If you are considering elements of a vintage-art-deco-twenties- style wedding, Miami Beach provides a beautiful backdrop for a destination wedding with miles of golden coastline, turquoise water as far as the eye can see, and hundreds of glamorous hotel beach clubs ready to entertain you and your guests. If a glamorous Art Deco themed affair filled with eclectic 1920’s inspired details like silent film inspirations that echo the mood of the period are for you, then come on down!

 

 

Like all great cities, Miami and Miami Beach have a distinctive architectural style. Actually, Art Deco isn’t just distinctive in Miami. In places like South Beach, it’s definitive.

 

 

Whatever your take on deco may be, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better concentration of it outside of Miami and Miami Beach. Back in its heyday (1920’s and 1930’s) Miami Beach cast its spell over millions of couples looking to get married at a world-class travel destination with sandy beaches, a balmy climate, Art Deco hotels.

 

 

We are blessed that we still have a distinctive architectural heritage that makes Miami Beach a one-of-a-kind city perfect for today’s brides.

 

 

There are 100s of buildings of the period, circa 1925-35, that are a perfect backdrop for your wedding/reception. You could start by walking around the Art Deco district’s historical cinemas, cafes, restaurants, hotels or bars. There are Art Deco gems right under your nose in Miami Beach! The interiors likely still have internal architectural details from the period including bold designs on the walls and floors, such as gilded geometric sunbursts or patterns etched in frosted glass.

 

 

If a sunset service by a glamorous resort swimming pool or out on the sands of Miami Beach is the reason you’re traveling this far to get married, be certain every aspect of your ceremony is like a picture postcard. Surrounded by lush tropical foliage, the retro pool bar lies just behind a cascading waterfall where your guests can toast your happy future.
