With a serious approach to the organization of the holiday all family and friends will long tell about the unforgettable marriage ceremony.

If the budget allows, it is worth making invitations in the form of an old newspaper or black and white photo, which depicts the bride and groom in the clothes of a bygone era. On the paper it is necessary to write about the important event and warn about the dress code. If the budget is limited, classic rectangular invitations with the image of playing cards and roulette are suitable. In Russia, it is customary to deliver invitations to newlyweds. But in this case, you can use the services of a courier who will dress up in a gangster costume.

The lights in the room are dimmed, with thick dark curtains on the windows to protect from the bright color. On the tables are candles and feathers, which were popular in Chicago in the 20s and 30s.
