A Gatsby Style Wedding

With Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan hitting the screens in the film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic The Great Gatsby, brides-to-be are certain to be looking at the vintage elegance and the Twenties as a source of inspiration for their big day.

Moulin Rouge director Baz Luhrmann has put together a new version of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and has found his Daisy Buchanan in 25-year-old British actress Carey Mulligan. She looks so amazing, so what girl planning her wedding wouldn’t want to look just like her. Pearls, satin, crystals and feathers are all just right for creating the perfect wedding.

Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) and Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton) are handsomely suited up in tuxes, so even the guys can look gorgeous with this theme!

In the 1974 version of the film Bruce Dern, Mia Farrow and Robert Redford stared. It was in this version that Theoni Aldredge; innovative costume designer won an Oscar and three Tonys. From what we can see, Baz has created something that looks just as luscious.
